It should be a user right, not a developer imposition. The GNU system already gives users this control. For instance, you can run the program under GDB and put a breakpoint on abort. That's how I normally run Emacs, for instance.

Btw: Fedora28 comes with kernel 4.16, which means if you have a vega card you get full 3D acceleration out of the box.

arch and rh and (ugh) debian are all fine these days i can see why that might be considered boring when there's no longer the thrill of having poo poo break constantly and having to wrestle the machine into submission kids these days don't even know how to write an XF86Config!

i worked at an MSP many years ago and one of our clients had 30% ubuntu servers, 10% centos servers, and the rest were gentoo with hand-crafted kernels for 'performance' and of course the admin who thought that was a brilliant idea had been gone a long time and portage was totally broken and it was all impossible to upgrade

would it be incredibly foolish to run the fedora dnf based system-upgrade process? and would it be even more foolish to go straight from 25 to 28 without passing through 26 and 27? asking for a friend

You have to upgrade through every intermediary version and each upgrade takes at least 30 min. If you don't have any configuration you want to keep just reinstall. Otherwise f28 does not differ from f24 in any particularly meaningful way so it should be safe. The days of massive system churn are pretty far behind at this point, at least until gnome cadt flares up again and they rewrite the entire de from scratch yet again
