I agree with you that the linux crowd is delusional about this matter, but fwiw I have seen an increase in non-tech people switching to Zorin or Mint in my circles in the past 2 years. I doubt there's gonna be a widespread migration in the near future, but with Linux finally getting more gui-friendly and less terminal-dependant, I think there's gonna be a fair increase eventually.

    Grouping guns with the other things is silly false equivalence. A gun can be set off easily and accidentally, and it almost always results in instant severe injuries to either the toddler or their surroundings. Knife/ladder/heatstroke injuries are all things that either take time or deliberate effort. Not only can they be caught before something bad happens, they are many degrees less severe than guns. You'll find carelessness or malice in any area/activity/weapon, but guns provide instant access to put those into action.

    sounds like you believe groups such as the NRA make up reasons to suggest that a gun isn’t ever a problem

    NRA keeps saying that guns aren't the issue, but video games & movies are. They lobbied against federal research efforts against gun violence studies in the 90s (and continue to do so), and even accused the CDC of "anti-gun bias". Most of their advocacy is built on shifting the blame from guns onto anything else.

    Popucom - new splitscreen co-op puzzle adventure game with bubble shooter mechanics

    This game is by Hypergryph, the studio that made Arknights, which is apparently a fun rpg. idk much about it.

    It has been quite fun. It's got a cute art style & animations, fun mechanics, and intersting puzzles. Doesn't feel repetitive.

    Overall, recommend trying it out. This game is similar to Split Fiction & It Takes Two, surprisingly being better than them in some of the puzzles.
