  I think we’re talking past each other here: You are talking about blocks as physical delineations in an ssd, containing many pages with erase cycles. Op is talking about the filesystem view of blocks, which is different altogether. ZFS, for instance, should have its block size aligned with what a disk presents to the HAL, or you end up with lots of wasted space or terrible performance. For SSDs (you’re right, outside op’s problem), the internal block size is usually much bigger than the emulat...

  B or death. So long as my mortal body can pull drops, it will be B. Or you’re fired.

  Packages are installed and removed from disk, but unless you kill the offending process(es), it might remain active in memory, depending on the quality of the install/remove script.

  find will catch more if you wildcard the name with “windows”, but that’s a moot point: we don’t have enough info to jump to “malware” conclusions here.

This law(s) is framed in a way to be unenforceable, yet the laws are coming regardless. This would suggest there is another reason for the laws. How would the law work for ne...

  You are misleading yourself. Consider a vehicle. We understand that there is a threshold of age and responsibility to operating a vehicle safely, but we don’t hold the vehicle manufacturer responsible for driver error if the driver is under the age of licensing. You are suggesting that an os maker can be held responsible for user decisions, which is both unenforceable and legally unsound.
