/sbin is like /bin, but for system administrative type commands. /usr holds all the other software that isn't critical to get the system up and running.
A device file is a special file that's like a pointer to a piece of actual hardware, like a serial port or a hard drive. /dev also has some non-hardware special files like /dev/zero. When you read from that one, you get an endless stream of zeros. Or /dev/null, that discards any data that's written to it.
People think the Olympics is about athletics. It's not. It's about corporate sponsors and construction contracts.
One nice thing about learning (and teaching) python is that it's a multiparadigm language. Students don't have to learn about indenting until you cover flow control. Classes and OOP can come way, way later.
I started with C++. Also multiparadigm, but the syntax and compiler errors were brutal, not to mention pointer arithmetic.
I'm not sure I can think of a language that would be better suited to learning. GDScript seemed kind of nice, and you get to make games.
Furries, to be sure, but atheists?

Hey, those are the safety standards!
Wireshark may or may not help you here. The proposed mechanism is abusing the wake words, which are processed locally on the device. Each marketing wake word could be processed, set a flag and go back to sleep with no network activity. Periodically a bit array of flags would be sent to the server with any other regular traffic (checking for notifications, perhaps). The actual audio never gets sent. I'm not saying that Facebook actually does this, but it's a reasonable explanation for the behaviour seen in the Vice article.
Depending on where you live, the environment hasn't been this clean in decades. The '70s and '80s were nasty.
Person on camera was a black male, 5'2" to 6'6" wearing a dark hoodie. The suspect certainly fits the description. There was a written manifesto, but the suspect says he didn't write it. He says he only signed the confession after being tortured by the police for hours.
Your proposal is exactly the system that exists now, and it's unjust.
Canada has fewer guns per person than the US, but still many more than most countries. I think there are a couple of other differences though. The types of guns are very different. Handguns are extremely restricted, and ownership is rare. Many (most?) semi auto rifles are either prohibited or restricted, and there are mag limits (5 rounds) for all centrefire rifles. This doesn't exactly prevent people from committing shootings, but a lot fewer people have those types of guns because they're kind of a pain in the ass get, store, and use. Safe storage is legally required, and much more encouraged by the gun-owning community.
The other factor might be what guns are used for in Canada. Concealed carry is practically non-existent, open carry is severely restricted, and while self-defence with a firearm is technically legal, ownership for that purpose pretty much isn't.
It's interesting to compare Vollmer's ideas with those of the father of modern policing in the UK and British Commonweath, Robert Peel.
Best we can do is an ebike license with an optional toaster endorsement. Separate license class for anything over 1500w or more than two slots.
My first vehicle was a 1971 Ford 3/4 ton. It was extremely reliable and tough. Having sat for most of the previous 30 years in a barn, it even looked good.
But it had all of the safety features of 1971. Power brakes the would lock up and throw you off the road if you more than thought about braking. Lap belts and a solid steel steering wheel to smash your teeth on. If you somehow hit the steering wheel hard enough to break it, you'd be impaled on the steel pipe steering column. Speaking of the steering, it didn't have power steering, so if you hit a rut on a rough road, the steering wheel would spin out of control. You had to just let go of it until it stopped spinning lest it break your thumbs. Also, the gas tank was inside the cab behind the seat for extra car crash fun.
It was a beautiful death trap. I kinda wish I could have put it back into a barn for another 30 years instead of selling it.
