There are ways to deal with this. There’s AppImage for GUI apps (that replicates the “just get an exe from a friend on a flash drive”) and lots of bundling programs for non-GUI apps (I use nix-bundle because I use Nix, but there are other options too).

Lots of distro installers work offline too, by just bringing all the stuff you need as part of the installer.

And one major benefit of Linux is that when stuff does inevitably go wrong, it’s infinitely easier to fix than proprietary garbage.

Don’t get my hopes up

Should I make lines over each other multiple times, each with different level?

“Ideally”, yes. It is very annoying to do in most editors but it is the correct solution.

Or just one line and don’t care about the other floors?

This is also fine IMHO, just mapping it as a single line with highway=steps will get the point across. Especially so given how this is not going to be useful for routing.

For multi-level stairs that are actually useful for routing the first solution would be more preferable as it would help calculate the distance traveled slightly better. You can actually see this done semi-properly here: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/451708239 (notice how the staircase is mapped in a spiral - this is mostly due to how annoying it is to do proper overlapping ways in an editor).

I think it’s fine to suggest it as part of the solution, but the article taunts it as “simplest and most powerful action” and “the clearest way to reject the largest act of violence in human history”. This is just not true: organized action is more powerful than individual action. Even if everyone reading this article went vegan immediately, it would do less than if they went out to protest and told all their friends about it too.

There’s no credibility to lose at this point. He has been lying for his entire life, no way he’s stopping now.

It can always get worse. “Only” ~200000 deaths from Israel’s actions for now, or ~10% of the population, which Israeli pieces of shit see as “90% still to go”. One can imagine how a total famine can speed up the genocide significantly.

While the video is kind of bullshit, I (as a vegan for 3 years now and no plans of stopping) also don’t think the message “just go vegan bro” is useful. A lot of people are now aware of the cruelty involved in animal agriculture, but just don’t care enough to give up nutritious tasty food that’s easy to cook. As usual, relying on individual action can’t be the solution for a systemic problem. So I think the most important part is to mobilize people to organize, lobby and protest against the animal industry, and to push for pro-vegan regulations, without necessarily going full vegan themselves for now. Quite surprisingly for a lot of people that’s easier to do than give up “mah cheese”, as horrific as its production may be. Of course it’s also great to encourage them to try easy & tasty vegan alternatives for some days of the week at least.

Yay! Now to wait while it trickles down to F-Droid…
