Help! Can't remember a title of an early CD-Rom game where you fought through the ages and into the future. SOLVED: Time Commando

You started off in the stone ages using sticks and rocks, fighting off bad guys and solving puzzles, and you’d move through time using the weapons of that era. I don’t think I would classify it as an educational game because outside of the weapons and settings, I don’t...
Assuming I was, or was related to, a stingy restaurant owner (I am not). What would be the most optimal way of skimping people on fries?
Lets say a 7.5 oz container of any size. What would be the best fry to appear to give people a lot of fry but actually giving them the least? Are there any container shapes that can help optimize this skimping?

Is an unknown supervisor password for ThinkPad bios an issue if I've already installed linux?
I purchased a second hand ThinkPad from an ebay outlet. When it arrived I wiped windows 10 from it and installed ubuntu with no issues. It runs perfect without any weird fixes needed.

Does steam ui restart in the background while playing games for anybody else?
First off I’m on wayland with Nvidia and I know that’s a cardinal sin but I still wanted to see if anyone else is having the same problem.
