The Windows Loading Circle that you see when booting up Windows is stored as a ridiculously optimised render of a font made up of dots and curved lines. No free or open-source software is out there that is able to match its speed and power efficiency.

Fun Fact: There are 38 available characters that you can put in your username and you also can put up to 255 characters long.
That means that there are 38+38^2+38^3+38^4+...+38^255 possible combinations of usernames, which roughly translates to infinity.

You probably know about the Minus World in the original Super Mario Bros, but did you know there are way more?
The game has 248 level IDs. Out of all the 248 possible IDs, 6 create a completely new level layout, 20 create a normal level with a different theme, and the rest are either exact clones of normal levels or immediately crash. But these are almost never talked about, because who tf wants to try to pronounce World *insert grass tile here* -4? Also, technically, there are almost five times more glitch levels, because most of the glitch levels in each remake and port are different.

On a Gravitron (a type of carnival ride), the centrifugal force is stronger than gravity, and if you're skilled enough, you can "stand" on the walls, creating those viral images of some dude defying gravity

Fun fact: Each unlockable character in MKPC is leaked from the start 
If you look at the screenshots (only going off first appearances):
- Koopa and Link are shown in Choco Island 2
- Shy Guy, Dry Bowser and Diddy Kong are shown in Sky Garden
- Rosalina, Bowser Jr. and Petey are shown in GBA Rainbow Road (rather fittingly for Rosalina)
- Funky Kong, King Boo and Toadette are shown in Cheep Cheep Beach
- Waluigi, Hammer Bro and Birdo are shown in Waluigi Pinball (rather fittingly for Waluigi)
- Dry Bones is shown in Ribbon Road
And as a bonus, Wargor is seen playing as Pikachu in Ribbon Road with 100 players which may showcase the use of custom characters and customizable player count settings!
Sneaky Wargor, expecting us not to notice!

Inside the Holy Roman Empire there were several states known as Reuss, which were controlled by the House of Reuss.
But the curious thing is that all members of that house, since 1193, had the name Henry (Heinrich). This is a tribute to the Holy Roman Emperor Henry VI.

That means that there are 38+38^2+38^3+38^4+...+38^255 possible combinations of usernames, which roughly translates to infinity.
Using Wolfram Alpha, I have calculated that 38^255 is roughly this:
6.9954738468880679120910211303206669915943999093502620490187... × 10^402
Its such a large number; people and even computers cannot understand nor comprehend it! At this point, its too far after where it starts to lose precision, so thats why I said "roughly".
