6 months agothey should obey Aerion over Egg, but Aerion is such an PITA that they wait for a tie breaker from someone who has even more seniority: Maekar or Baelor.
That’s how I interpreted it while watching. The guards were given orders they disagreed with so when they saw an opportunity to disobey they took it.
Tap for spoiler
Thinking about it more that doesn’t track with what was portrayed. The guards didn’t need much convincing to get ready to curbstomb Dunk. Aerion merely mentioned knocking his teeth out and they’re already forcing Dunk’s face to the stage.
Maybe Egg mentioning his father is what did the trick?
Installing something like Linux Mint or Ubuntu is fairly easy. The hardest part is probably creating the install media and that’s not particularly hard ei her.
If you don’t rely on specific software (like Adobe), using Linux is a good idea. I’d still advice not to mess with a computer you rely on and wait until you have sufficient time to troubleshoot something. Even if nothing goes wrong a new OS can still take a little getting used to.
