Smart thermostats inadvertently strain electric power grids
> Cron has a bunch of this kind of thing built in
At least Vixie cron doesn't support anything like this.
Each cron job that needs it has to implement it on its own, e.g.:

Creating a package manager
Look at https://github.com/Debian/apt for inspiration.

I think what Linus and Luke at LTT are doing is incredibly important.
I believe there's a command line option you have to use now. Poked around and found the release commit:

Lmao "Thank you Linus"
Haha, commit 312e7d7310e07757c59cd7ac0f20d0b416b43026/release 2.3.12 is dedicated to Linus Tech Tip
- Is it possible to have your BTC stolen if you install a malicious wallet while using a Trezor?

How does this affect OctoPrint users?
Apt (https://github.com/Debian/apt) is a package manager, and its very concept is to connect to various repositories of software and get a list of everything available and allow you to easily install the software. Without even looking at the source I am certain this distro is connecting to many of them every time there is an apt update. This is not "pinging" as described, for some nefarious purpose it is simply retrieving data that you are requesting by doing an apt update.

How to remove pop-desktop completely
And if that's not enough, you yourself seem to have been responsible that exactly this change was added to apt. If I may refresh your memory: https://github.com/pop-os/apt/pull/1 It even links to upstream Debian work mentioning exactly this method: https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/-/merge_requests/196

win x lin
And no matter how hard it is, if it's possible to break it, someone will find their way to completely breaking the system. Look at what Linus had to do to break his Pop!_OS install - go to the terminal (which already renders it far out of reach for the average user), run sudo apt install steam, and ignore a giant error. And that wouldn't work anymore anyway, because Pop now uses a version of APT that completely forbids breaking the system unless specifically configured to allow it - so there is now an extra step in there, telling APT not to preserve pop-desktop.

Confessions of a self admitted gatekeeper
This isn't locking it down. This is about providing sensible defaults like I mentioned before. For power users, the control is still there. It's easy enough to create the `/etc/apt/break-my-system` file so that you can shoot yourself in the foot if you wanted to. This is not similar to what ChromeOS or Android is doing at all.

Now that we have a baby-sitter with apt, how do we remove it?
https://github.com/pop-os/apt/pull/1/files Here is the code change. Note line 311.

The Linux community is growing – and not just in numbers
They have already committed a fix that improves things dramatically.
- Whose fault do you think that Linus ended up with a nuked DE and why?
-
What happened with LTT is our fault
And they already issued a "fix" to prevent people to easily "break" it.

System76: A Case Study on How Not To Collaborate With Upstream
And their fix for the issue Linus had is downstream only. Not a word said about working with Debian on this.
What are some alternatives?
