Okay, now it's my turn to be surprised, people actually do that? (Mind you, I got married before online dating was even a thing, so I'm probably a 'bit' out of touch)

Overall I like it, I'm a pretty introverted person and tend to stay in the background by nature, but being this tall means that I get noticed no matter what.
That being said, I'm writing this from the back of an Uber and i can't put my head straight up here. And the only way to fly is in an emergency exit seat.
I can only buy clothes in specialised shops, but these days most have web shops, so that has become a lot easier.
As someone who's well over 2 meters tall, I can tell you that no matter where I travel, people always ask. Just depending on the country, they just stop me walking in public, or only after some small talk.
I can't speak for all European countries, but at least in the Netherlands they're not a thing. We might still have money orders, which are similar, but I've never seen one used.
Instead we can just make instant bank transfers, even using a QR code, which you can generate in your own banking app and can be used with any other bank.
Same here, I used to have this image in my head of a eccentric entrepreneur pushing technology to the max with 'fuck you money'.
Sure he said some crazy shit sometimes, but it kind of felt like he didn't have much of a filter.
Around the time of the Thai cave thing this started to change, but I still gave him the benefit of the doubt until that point.
After that, things just went down hill...
Same here, similar age.
When i got diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago, ny psychologist mentioned that I'm probably on the spectrum as well, but that getting an official diagnosis wouldn't really help anything and she wasn't sure I would even get one.
But having the realisation really opened my eyes though, I now understand better why certain situations always made me irritable and made me have much more peace with my own limitations.
I always knew I was a bit 'off', and knowing I'm on the spectrum kind of felt like the last pieces of the puzzle fell in place.
Security through obscurity would be having a system connected to a network, but relying on a secret / unknown protocol to secure it.
Air-gapping a system is a real and very useful security method. That being said, it's not enough by itself.
If you're interested, have a look at past examples, like the recent work on breaking Tetra communication standard and Stuxnet.
I saw the scene on Reddit many years ago and thought it was hilarious, so it stuck.
There are plenty of options to 'put down' a human as well, but most of those require medical expertise to administer.
Medical personnel generally frown upon the whole idea of putting people down, so they're not really an option
In Manjaro you just run this command, there's a GU package manager as well, but I've never used it. Pamac takes care of downloading / building any required dependencies and the AUR repo includes any required patches for the application run well on Arch / Manjaro.

I haven't used Arch in years, but I believe it was something similar.
The whole system is pretty similar to, (but more refined than) FreeBSDs Ports tree.
I went from Windows XP -> FreeBSD -> Debian -> several Ubuntu flavors -> MacOS -> Manjaro on my desktop. I ended up switching to MacOs after countless upgrade and graphics card issues in the early 2010s but switched back to Linux again after getting tired of Apples more and more restrictive environment.
For servers I've switched around between FreeBSD, Debian and Ubuntu at home and various Redhat based distros at work.
Right now I use Ubuntu because it just works for my Kubernetes home cluster and Redhat at work because its well supported for commercial software.
Heard them all by now I think. But if you want to try and kick my ass, you'd better bring a step ladder ๐คฃ
