Are you forgetting that US hospitals are marking people who are dying of alcohol poisoning and heart disease as Covid deaths? Even when they are not tested! (https://www.foxnews.com/media/physician-blasts-cdc-coronavir...)

I can't give you an example but it's perfectly plausible that many users don't store volatile data on their computer and/or are not careless with downloading and running programs. These users might prefer the extra speed up.

Sometimes it does make sense to trade security for performance.

Apple has actually brought useable scrollbars to iOS devices for the first time in iOS 13.

Go ask about MKUltra on /pol/ (which is full of far-right uber-nationalists) and you will get mountains upon mountains of information on MKUltra.

Now go ask the same question on r/politics (which is prominently made of up leftists) and you will probably be called a conspiracy theorist and no one will converse with you.

I think the real world is the opposite of your world-view.

What are you talking about? Super Mario 64 is an extremely loved game and is still played. People will find much more interest in this than some obscure game that nobody cares about.

People are passionate about this game and there is a good chance of a PC port of the game now (as well as more substantial mods) because of that.
