    Christ a bit of paranoia would do modern internet users good, I still remember when it wasn’t normal to have every single piece of identifying information online and readily available for anyone.

    In all fairness paranoia is important in things like finding someone trying to slip a backdoor into xz. Going by the most recent Windows 11 update, Microsoft seems to be “we’ll fix it in production”.

        Open-source Mario Kart with all the functionality of Mario Kart, and you don’t even have to spend money on an actual Wii.

          Mariokart isn’t all that great by today’s standards though. The tracks look pretty and all (Tuxkart not so), but game-play wise Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed blows it away (and it’s even old).

      There are much better kart games out there like Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed, or Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled. Tuxkart does have a lot of user created tracks and you can make your own, so there is somewhat a draw for that.

    I think the real thing we need to do to attract windows users is have tuxkart installed by default.

      Or maybe stop treating it like a religion that needs converts and only appeals to conspiracy theorists in the long run when people realize the lies they were fed about it.

        I went from not owning a proper computer for nearly a decade to exclusively using mint for work, school, and gaming emulators. Works flawlessly, everything’s pretty intuitive, zero issues whatsoever. Maybe my use case isn’t crazy but for the average joe, Linux works just fine. What lies was I fed?

        Android is Linux, simply not the traditional userspace :)

        Linux Distros have a huge variety. What have you tried?

      Why would i need to? I tried Linux and it’s mental. Took 20 minutes to edit mount settings on my hdd. fstab, gnome disks, and whatnot. Meanwhile Windows is: here’s your files bro, whenever you want. And don’t even get me started with the countless problems i encountered to install apps, edit hdd permissions, configuring panels and more.
