Ink is also supposedly more environmentally friendly than toner.

Lol, it's kinda sad how personally you're taking OP's opinion about Mint's UX. Time to touch some grass.
From the video I saw, it looked like the ship hit the support nearly straight-on. If they built some sort of underwater pile of rubble to cause ships to run aground earlier, or perhaps bumpers that extend further out to redirect ships, that could potentially work. But yeah, it was basically a head-on collision. An edge case.
OP didn't talk shit though, they explained their experience in a pretty fair and neutral way. Don't take criticisms against Linux so personally.
Your arguments aren't really addressing the points that OP made, though. They aren't saying they expected everything to work just like Windows, they are saying they expected everything to just work. Any system that requires tinkering for basic stable functionality should be considered experimental and not ready for production.
If you disagree you are falling prey to dogmatic OS fundamentalism. Acknowledging insufficiencies helps improve Linux, while rejecting such criticism prolongs the amount of time the majority of people write it off as unusable as a desktop operating system.
It may in fact be possible to protect bridge supports from ship collisions. Bridges in the San Francisco Bay have some state of the art protections that have worked in the past: https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/bay-area-bridge-safety-collapse/3493000/
I had to do a write-up on the Deepwater Horizon disaster for my organizational leadership class a couple weeks ago. Same thing, a corporate culture that downplayed safety and emphasized profit led to poor maintenance, woefully inadequate equipment inspections, and choosing the worst options because they were cheaper.
It's past time for these corps to learn.
Seems like this sort of anti-safety corporate culture is behind the majority of industrial accidents.
You are more intellectually honest and open-minded than the majority of people in the Fediverse.
Okay, but you're talking about an entirely different doctrine now: Deification.
Regardless, I consider myself a Christian because I worship Jesus Christ. Every religious service or act I have ever participated in has been done in His name. The most significant doctrines I believe in were preached by Him.
I find the idea that because I don't believe in the Athanasian Creed I am therefore not a Christian to be absurd and impossible to support authoritatively. You are, of course, entitled to your own opinion on this matter.
I reject your opinion entirely.
There is one God. Jesus is God. Jesus always existed. The Holy Spirit is God. The Holy Spirit is referenced in both testaments. The Father is God. The Father always existed. Jesus prays to the Father. The Father and the Holy spirit are both present alongside each other at Jesus’ baptism. Jesus flat out equates the Father, Son and Holy Spirit together when talking of Baptism.
This is exactly the same doctrine as the Godhead. God the Father is God. God the Son, Jesus Christ, is God. The Holy Spirit is God. Three together in unity, all present during the baptism of Christ. All eternal.
I don't see a disagreement here.
Toner is tiny plastic particles, but ink can be made of various biodegradable dies and ink cartridges can be more easily refilled. Toner tends to be more economical than ink, but for the same reason that it is less environmentally friendly: Plastic particles don't dry up or biodegrade. Additionally, toner cartridges print more pages before needing to be replaced.
