I'm assuming they're factoring in travel, lodging, food, etc costs for a trip away from their area to wherever a beach is.

I set up a test rig with Fedora to see how the gaming went and didn't have any issues with Steam or a handful of AAA games. Of note though, my test machine has an AMD GPU so I didn't have to deal with any Nvidia driver shenanigans.

Does he not have any accountants?

Probably fired em. When you have more money than nearly the rest of the world combined, you don't need to keep track of things like "finances" and "books".

Not OP, but pretty sure JP = Justice of the Peace

I feel like it's pretty clear:

I'm in my early 40s in the US. I learned to drive a manual when I got my license ~25 years ago but haven't driven one since that day. I rode a motorcycle for a few years as well, so I'm pretty sure I could manage if I absolutely had to.

Thank you for doing this so I didn't have to

On top of what's already been said, to your question specifically of what the devs are doing - a lot of the time it's nothing out of the ordinary as the Ops teams are the ones conducting the maintenance. There will likely be a dev or devs on call, but that's routine anyway so it's ultimately just another day for them. Sure, when big patches are pushed they're typically more attentive to the process - but even then, they're essentially informed observers.

I lost my grandmother and dad to Alzheimer's. I feel like it's probably in my future, as well. It's a miserable disease that makes me question a lot of end-care practices and my wife & I are absolutely going to have some strategies in place, but to answer your question we already have 3 beautiful children that I can't imagine life without (pretty sure there's an Alzheimer's joke in there, somewhere). I certainly don't want to put them through what I saw with my Dad, but I also wouldn't want to have missed out on all the wonderful experiences I've had/will have with them on account of a "what if".

Ultimately, the choice is yours to make but you're clearly putting a lot of worthwhile thought into it and I'm sure whatever you decide will be the best choice for you. I'm sorry about your dad & sister, and if you ever need someone to talk to I'm here.

QoS was my first thought as well. OP is ready to build a faraday cage to brute-force this common 3rd party router feature!
