Sometimes it's actually better with dark background on direct sun.

If we are talking about devices screen, white background kinda goes yellow on direct sun and contrast reduces. But black background goes dark grey and less light gets reelected back to the eyes.

If we are talking old school paper ( SHOCKING i know ). It's close to unreadable on direct sun when paper is white because it shines back too bright, it hurts eyes but black paper it much more comfy on eyes.

Note: Reason why black on white was used historicaly is most likely economical. (Less paint, easy to maintain.) If papyrus naturally turned black, all written text might have been in "dark mode" from the beginning.

IMHO it does contradict what you say. Intention doesn't matter. If you copy currency , you either have to make apparent its fake currency or you are might get in trouble with law. Intention, aka motive is hard to prove and if proven doesn't make it legal to copy official currency.

I have yet to see country that doesn't mind copying their currency unofficially but I'm open to suggestions 🫡

In Russia territory, historically, they call some westerners "useful idiots" .

if there was no issue we would not be talking about the topic in the first place. It seems that multiple sports organizations after mixing trans people with females in women categories lead to issues, I somehow don't believe that all of them figured it out of transphobia or something. Meaning there was issue in fairness.

I understand that, but i said multiple times it's not matter of recipient asking for it.
And I'm not forcing anyone do that. And i sad i have never seen anyone get scolded for it. I just say it's one of the way to show respect. What's so enraging about what i do to show respect for more experienced or senior people ?

I agree that there was huge portion of work done on Wine then Proton.

What i meant is that kind of "plug & play" kind of experience where players don't have to deal with or think whether there will be issues due games being developed primarily for other system. Where devs themselves would be fixing these issues not community of players. Where players are not going get "Sorry but it was not made for Linux so it's not our responsibility game doesn't run out of box as intended" kind of treatment .

Right, not to mention they also giving back to community by proposing game friendly changes on kernel AFAIK.

If just most games wold run on Linux out of box at least same as on Windows, i can imagine there would be shift in market share.
One of the reason is needless bloat of Windows so even my for-noobs-distro idles around 0% CPU and less the 1gb memory without doing almost any tweaking but Win10/11 constantly sends calls home and idles on 4-6GB of rams. Other thing is how lightning fast linux can be.
