Tripping over trip points

Tripping over trip points

Parent article: Tripping over trip points

Just ran into this issue after a kernel upgrade.

The comment about "windows is highly unlikely to be overriding the trip points" is BS - there
are numerous utilities that allow this in windows, and I use them on every computer, the same
as I have overridden the trip points in every linux install up until now.

In 10 years of using Linux this is the first time I recall Windows giving me more control over
my computer while Linux instead tries to protect me from myself in the interest of avoiding
bad PR.

Good grief.
