If you want to play games from the Late 90s or early 2000s, Windows XP is probably your best bet. You may find driver incompatibility with Sandy Bridge products though.

Do you Americans/Canadians ever drive manual cars?

I learned how to drive stick when I was 15 and got my license. I didn't take lessons though, my dad taught me how to drive. I wouldn't say that there's no point, but for most people an automatic is fine. I feel that you learn how cars work and operate better if you know how to drive a manual, and I find that there is less distracted driving when you need both hands to drive. That being said, driving a manual is a PITA in heavy traffic, and if I had a long commute I wouldn't drive stick. I learned how to drive stick in San Francisco, which is definitely one of the more unforgiving places to learn how to drive stick, but I find it pretty useful nonetheless. Engine breaking down long hills is really convenient, and the added protection of not having to worry about your car getting stolen is really nice. -
As the others have said here in this thread, I don't think Linus owning a stake in Framework necessarily means that he is unable to review other laptops, but he does mention Framework far too often in videos that have nothing to do with the product. He has already disclosed that he owns a stake in Framework, he should stop mentioning that from now on.
