This past weekend, I picked up a little wooden craft kit. All the pieces were pre-cut and I just had to glue and fit things together. I put it together yesterday and I can confirm, it was the most satisfying thing I’ve built in ages.
If the theme was “so awful it’s great”, I think they may have nailed it.
Happy to help! It’s on https://archive.org if you’re interested in checking it out. Go search their movie database for “Super Mario Bros: The Morton Jankel Cut”.
I highly recommend you check out the extended cut if you haven’t seen it already. If nothing else, it’s worth it just for the Iggy & Spike rap.
For me, it was Mandrake, I think it was back around 2000. I played so much Tux Racer on that machine. However, after they switched the branding to Mandriva, the OS started to run pretty poorly for me around that time. I stayed away from Linux entirely until around 10 years ago when I friend introduced me to Mint. It’s been my main ever since, though I’ve played with others since then, like OpenSUSE, Ubuntu, and most recently, Debian and EndeavourOS.
As a developer, I find it pretty frustrating having to deal with constant hardware updates. By the time you get something released that takes advantage of the hardware you have, you’re already at least a generation or two behind.
