ATC and Pilots use a subset of language, they get by with mostly the same 200 words and the formats of most calls is largely the same. So you know what to expect. Additionally, ATC and Pilots require readback, ie you say what you understood

I don' think git is a good example since if you edit two git repositories together and you try to merge them, you can get conflicts. The point of CRDTs is that when you merge state, there CANNOT be a conflict, ever.

The web interface is hostile af, the standard GUI dialog to add printers is fairly hostile as well, even if you get autodiscovery to work (not always, not in all cases out of the box), it's still not friendly for average end users.

Last time I checked, the printer dialog will first ask you what protocol to use to talk to the printer. It lists a few common options, such as JetDirect, PCL, TCP/IP, etc. Whatever. Doesn't really matter, it's just poor UX. M

On Archlinux only root can login by default last time I installed it. Heavily distro dependent and just weird that it requires a webinterface to configure.

But that's absolutely no reason why things can't continue to improve. CUPS might have been a lare improvement over the 2000s and the 90s, but it's still not great. Especially now that much more end-users are active on linux t

CUPS also provides a GUI-based printer configuration tool, which handles viewing your printers, their queues and setting up new printers. It looks not only old, it is old and not very user friendly. It also exposes it's admin interface

I use ArchLinux, so as close to upstream as it gets. The CUPS printer setup dialog, both on GNOME and KDE looks the same; it's complicated and barely usable. It hasn't changed in the past 10 years either. The bugs have persisted f

I bought a Lexmark Laser Printer a while ago. CUPS doesn't recognize this printer automatically, you have to add it manually. So you have to go through a dialog that is basically user hostile and I can't imagine how many people wi

PCL5 is well supported in my experience. PCL6 on more modern printers. Compared to Linux, the Windows printing experience is easy. 99.9% of the time, you go into your settings, click on devices, click on "add device" and wait for

Well, for one CUPS could be modernized. Currently CUPS is a rather poor user experience, setting up a printer is non-trivial for the average user and often enough requires digging into CUPS internals. It's configured either via an anci

IIRC their client detects FUSE and friends. People have used iSCSI or ATAoE to bypass this, but that comes with it's own limitations. Most people don't bother.
