I remember this but doubt I've played it. It's like Quake, which I love, and have most of the those versions so I'll give it a try!

That link installs mandatory addons that may be spyware. This may be a better one:

Some years back someone (one of the Kids?) gave me a boxed set of Quake. For some reason I could never get into it. Still have that set of discs in my stash of games.  8)

Somehow, it updated anyways without my knowledge! When I booted up this morning I saw the screen saying it had updated!!!

There are things M$ is not telling us about how Windows works now if they can update it without your knowledge! It makes you wonder what they really talked about when they had their meeting with Trump!

Time to seriously look at linux options. And speaking of security and privacy, I have a few links I'll be posting about linux and secure/private distros. ;)

Set your preferences to 'metered' connection and see if that will stop it.

Ubuntu has been my favorite for a long time now.

I've set it to that just to see if it works. But I get the idea that it will still do it but more slowly and over time.

I've been looking at a few distros to see what's out there. I got the latest copy of Linux Format magazine and there seems to quite a few new ones out. Most are offshoots from other more popular distros.
