No

so you choose when you want to upgrade and everything runs smoothly!

yes, choose the 'right time' to upgrade.
figure out when is the 'right time', usually you must read some upgrade warning first , or else you can get caught.

for LMDE this is must read

if that is the case, you should play with Sid, unstable, the hot and spicy aptosid is very nice to play

We love using the terminal!

I am too old for unstable ...testing is more suitable for a middle aged man

Great. I am also thinking about moving to Mint Debian. How many times did you encounter a situation since 2004, where your sid stopped working or had a major problem due to updates? Does it happen often?

Stopped working? Never.

Major problem? depends on your definition, the worst I had to do was edit Xorg.conf in nano one time.

I did have sound stop working on DVDs once but it was fixed the same day.
