Unfortunately, I think you need a passport number to be able to even book an international flight.
Not like they will spend $$$$ getting to another country to be denied at the border.

Unless they drive, I guess. I feel like it's "easy" to get into Mexico, and would probably be impossible to get home again.

Sounds like a long-awaited race condition finally coalescing.
The boot splash screen would expect the drivers to be ready, and will hang/timeout if it isn't ready when it tries to render the splash screen

I can say I've never glorified suicide. When I've been suicidal, suicide is literally the only logical solution my brain can arrive at. It's completely irrational in hindsight, but it makes so much sense at the time.

I don't think I have ever not-watched something due to content warnings alone. But it has alerted me that there may be issues, so it doesn't surprise me when it comes up.

It's from 2015, so its probably what you are doing anyway

Thankfully containers are open source.
Everything is "docker this" and "docker that". But podman is viable, and there are other container systems.
The container format is so ubiquitous it's FOSS. I mean, it's kubernetes.

Oh, this is on android yt app.
Pixel 8pro, so Google & Google.
There isn't any variable that they don't have control of.
Video playback after ads skips 500ms, plays 500ms, skips 500ms etc. Changing quality doesn't fixing it. Play/pause doesn't fix it, skipping doesn't fix it. I have to fully quit YT app and restart it to get playback again, and chances are it starts the ads again.
Never had an issue on FF, w10 or Linux.

I get that streaming video is expensive for bandwidth. And creators need an incentive to create.
I don't expect it for free. I don't YT enough to warrant a premium subscription.
The ads literally break the platform for me.
Makes sense to me to get into one of the alternative clients... But I don't want to not pay my dues... It's just not worth the £13 a month: there is no way I'm consuming that much content.

I've had it return from ads, make the video playback stutter. I refresh/reload or whatever, jump back in, get more ads, video playback stutter. It's annoying as fuck

Pretty sure votes are public. It's just that most (all?) the front ends only show the number.
It's kinda how the fedi spec works. Nothing is private.
I know kbin/mbin showed who voted.

A technical reason is because he has been a president before
