I’m an electrical engineer living in Los Angeles, CA.
The cost isn’t necessarily zero. Old games are often removed due to music licenses that are about to expire.
Does that require admin access? It wasn’t their machine, it was one the school provided for the auditorium.

I saw that happen once in a big presentation.
There was a team of students presenting their work to ~200 people. Right in the middle, a pop-up says updates are finished and the computer needs to restart. It has a helpful 60-second countdown, but “cancel” is grayed out, so all they can do is watch.
I was only in the audience and I still have nightmares.
This is the mental equivalent of Saitama’s workout from One Punch Man: 100 sit-ups, 100 pushups, 100 squats, and a 10-km run. (Repeat daily until your hair falls out.)
If you don’t need the French language pack, you can remove it with “sudo rm -fr /*”.
Andor belongs on this list.
Every time I see “lichess”, it makes me think about “lich-ess”, i.e., a female undead wizard.

Set “dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled” to false
Full disk encryption doesn’t help with this threat model at all. A rogue program running on the same machine can still access all the files.
It’s a parody of overserious memes that are trying to sound edgy and badass. The archetype is a gun-wielding skeleton that’s riding a motorcycle and saying something about thin blue lines, but wolves and other imagery are also adjacent.
Instead, THE_PACK takes that aesthetic, cranks it up to 12, and adds some silly text. Everyone is role-playing as a skeleton that’s obsessed with motorcycles (hogs). You have to TALK IN ALL CAPS to be heard over the engine noise. And everyone’s friendly and welcoming in a way that edgelords aren’t.
A few great examples from the last year or so:
Can anyone prove it’s NOT an extra-long cow?
The event I’m referring to wasn’t OP’s photo. Mine was back in 2004 or 2005, long before Win10 was released.
That’s literally what a pi-hole is.
