I never thought "reboot" or "shutdown -r" was a fancy command.
Me on the other hand will continue to type "init 0" and "init 6" and "nobody can stop me" from doing so

Re: How users A and B can access the same USB drive ?
Here is what you could do 1) Have a common user group for both accounts ( create a new one or use an existing one, that's up to you ) 2) Make sure that both users belong to that common group ( ideally have that common group as primary group ) 3) If needed : change all files (of the USB drive) group ...

Re: Broken Kodi and Updates
It could be a combination of Kodi and new drivers and your hardware.
I had a similar experience in the past ( I don't remember version and updates ) : kodi did not play well for some vidoes but VLC did on one particular PC.

Re: Using newest Python versions (Or: "When One plays with a Python, One usually gets bit...lol.")
Yes you can, as long as you install it in your personal directory .
Don't change the default python version that comes with Linux mint.
Last thought : how to you think that linux mint develops and tests their version ? By using another OS ?
