Came here to say, now that OP made me think about it, it seems a lot of thought and hard work had to go into fucking-up cold pizza.

I have a TV with a WHITE LED that does this and we have to wait for it to boot. Luckilly, no one sleeps on the livingroom couch enough for this to matter.

It took me years of yelling at my Mother-In-Law, who I don't even like in the slightest, to get her to wear a seatbelt, but my kids still have their grandmother and learned not to argue against wearing one themselves.

Through the warped lense of what modern security theater has sold their leaders on? Sure, why not?

Step one to being a Bounty Hunter: have no warrants or serious criminal charges/convictions of your own.

Step two: Avoid crossing jurisdictions at all costs.

Step three: survive a free person yourself long enough to realize that being a repo-man is far safer or at least less likely to get you extradited for all those times you broke rule two. Maybe you'll even survive this long enough to graduate to Security Guard, Body Guard or an even more legitimate profession like literally anything else.

Side note: most of these people would still make better cops than most cops. The Dead in "Dead or Alive" is almost never profitable any more.

... and using that as an excuse to remove passenger capacity when they should be expanding it.

... and removing options from those versus the ICE versions. In my case, removing the front-row middle seat option from the F-150 Lightning took that sonofabitch off my preferred next-vehicle list. Can't fit my whole family? Don't want it.

Mock me for having a large family that restricts my choice in vehicles, but consider: I could just buy what I want and cart them everywhere with two+ vehicles like our neighbors and extended family do with their large broods.

There is no up-shot to removing passenger capacity from a vehicle. Not when so many EV's have a got-damn Frunk.

Individual apps, particularly full-screen games, shouldn't need "Wayland support"(quotes because what that means will vary between implimentations).

Now, if you have to install xorg on a system that doesn't have it in order to play a game? Yeah that would suck, although games are on my personal shortlist of application categories that should always be run from a flat-pack/equivalent and/or containerized wherever possible.

Now I think about it, why don't (anti-cheat)games just run their own VM's and "calibrate" those versus any weird system variables? Seems like a better anti-cheat than hacking-my-kernel-to-make-sure-I'm-not-hacking-the-game...

I'll make fun of them day and night over their knife ban(mostly because I can freely carry an outright SWORD in my state without a permit), but his take is bonkers.

I liked it well enough. I will definitely watch more movies in this version of the story and characters, year after year, or every few years. That was true of all previous versions as well though.
