is there a Linux… idk what to call it, type? OS? Thing??? that runs out of the box without me having to install additional software manually or at least automatic setup wizards

The word you are looking for is called a distribution, or distro for short.

I'm surprised no one else has mentioned Bazzite, which should be exactly what you're looking for.

is there any specific hardware that works easier with Linux

An AMD GPU for sure. Nvidia drivers have come a long way, but they don't generally behave as well out of the box like AMD.

It was so disappointing, it would have been so easy to make it work with couch co-op and online multiplayer with just a little bit more effort. I was so excited when it was first announced, and then I don't think I played it beyond the first day it released after trying online play with my brother.

The original was a masterpiece of couch co-op, but it's increasingly difficult and expensive to play it on original hardware anymore. Fortunately you can get away with connecting multiple instances of m-gba and dolphin to recreate the experience on emulator for couch co-op at least.

LOL absolute legend.

What about adding "in nog we trust" or something along those lines. Depending on your artistic confidence, maybe also a portrait, but with a chicken head instead of a dead president lol

Go to a grocery store and go "psst, want to buy some quality merchandise?" to random people passing by. Then reveal the inside of your jacket lined with eggs.

Ah, I believe that would be from a college course.

Statements that start with # in C/C++ are known as preprocessor directives, that is, they are executed before compilation begins. OP has used a #define which will replace any instance of A (IF(x)) with B (while (x)) in the code.

So the IF statement is really just a while statement.

Big laundry. I don't even remember what the reason was. I guess I assumed I would remember like it was some sort of genius idea. Big laundry, big laundry, it's crazy, I'm a crazy person.

Not from the US but currently living here. I would say the Disability Act is the gold standard worldwide. The amount of consideration for people with a variety of disabilities that almost universally applies is exceptionally amazing. It's kind of shocking to see the dedication to adhering to that law while otherwise abandoning that portion of the population (e.g. Healthcare, SSDI, etc.).

That really depends on your use case and how valuable web search is for your daily life.

I've personally tried Google, Bing, DDG, Brave search, and ChatGPT. Kagi is consistently able to find what I'm searching for more quickly and accurately than anything else, which has been very valuable for me in my personal and professional life.

It's easily worth the cost in result quality and time saving for me personally, but that doesn't mean the same will apply to you or anyone else.

As far as stand out features, there aren't really any that I can think of. It just gives me the results I'm looking for without any bullshit to wade through.
