While I'm not a Windows user, I do print things every single day. Mainly it's the puzzles from the newspaper that I print, but sometimes it's random articles or recipes. The recipes one is obvious as to why, but the random articles is because I don't want to read everything off of a screen and murder my eyes. If I had an e-ink tablet then I might read more articles that way, but those things seem to all be ungodly expensive.
As for the CVE, I know no one will listen, especially as they haven't been listening for the past 25 years I've been saying it, but nearly all integer types in code should be unsigned. Then checking the magnitude of a number is a single comparison instead of two. Also, all input from an external source, and the internet as well as the users would be an external source, should be checked for correctness. Using Rust won't eliminate the need to check user input, nor will it eliminate all memory related bugs.
