Depends on the distro. Some have a configuration setting to allow unfree software or not, others have separate repos.

A similar argument is what finally caused the value of the vi family of editors to click in my brain:

And, fun fact, the English word “pineapple” was originally synonymous with “pinecone” (i.e. the fruit of the pine tree).

That said, the bandwidth of strapping microSD cards to carrier pigeons is actually pretty high.

Skyrim, which needed a FPS limiter to avoid glitching at the beginning.

And the opening of Skyrim has been known to glitch out on Windows, too.
