  • The main “instability” I’ve found with testing or sid is just that because new packages are added quickly, sometimes you’ll have dependency clashes.

    Pretty much every time the package manager will take care of keeping things sane and not upgrading a package that will cause any incompatibility.

    The main issue is if at some point you decide to install something that has conflicting dependencies with something you already have installed. Those are usually solvable with a little aptitude-fu as long as there are versions available to sort things out neatly.

    A better first step to newer packages is probably stable with backports though.

  • Not defending anyone here, but a paedophile is someone who’s sexually attracted to prepubescent children. I believe these days it’s extended to the early stages of puberty as well.

    Most girls are well over that phase at age 14.

    A 23 year-old having sex with a 14 year old may be morally and legally wrong depending on culture and jurisdiction, but the cases where it’s actual paedophilia are likely a small minority.

    Again, I’m not defending anyone, but calling every person who’s attracted to minors a paedophile only serves to diminish the effect of the actual ones.

  • You don’t punish them per se, but you do sanction them.

    For example, Bolsonaro can’t leave the country even though he hasn’t been found guilty of anything yet.

    Also, someone who’s been accused of murder will probably be arrested preventatively if the judge in charge has reason to believe they will reincide before the proceedings are through.

    These things happen all the time and they’re designed to protect society from further damage from criminals who haven’t yet been fully judged and processed.
