I would not be surprised if in a month it turns out a bunch of those don't match with the crimes

When catching up with hardware performance for Linux gaming, I always browse phoronix, try to find a few comparisons from different years to see how the card looked like in comparison to other options. There might be some sleepers now no-one remembers about, that you magically have an option to buy. Think which game in the comparisons might have similar requirements to what you want to play and see how the card/cpu did on the settings you find agreeable/non-agreeable/perfect

Don't go into its forum, though. There be dragons

Maybe recently it started to change with NVIDIA opening their drivers but for years we've been second class citizens for them. Personally I say "fuck NVIDIA"

If you decide to go AMD, definitely explore the landscape of fan controllers. I use corectl but maybe you would prefer something else (this is Arch wiki, but should be fine for other distros too)

management / factory games like workers and resources

Maybe Frostpunk would be up your alley?

Such chip and

use my PC for image, poster and video editing

It's not about caring. It's about what gets done

Most of distros use the same projects code-wise, some just add some patches or lag months behind. I mean, it doesn't really matter, just do it. You'll either be happy with anything or outgrow whatever you pick up now. And either sooner or later land using one that you will decide is absolutely the best, or just have vague preferences in the end
But it's the journey that does it, not a particular distro

I guess very few PR departments would agree with you

For sure I would also expect that the division line lies somewhere else than just one continent. But so far that's the only datapoint I have

No :D

But then my question is, do we feel there are a lot of such collections? Or rather not?

To rephrase a little bit:
"Are there places where someone could pull off another Petrarch today?"

• yes
• no
• a few
• a lot
• only in Africa (see the answer in AskHistorians)

That went dark very fast. I appreciate :D

I've never considered someone buying books as status symbols. But I can see that happening

Ok, sure. But you still buy them to read them

🤔 Isn't reading them the point of collecting?
You seriously made me wonder :D

But still, even if they don't read them, they know they have them. So the collector and the seller know that such book exists and is somewhere out there and the owner knows they have such title in their stash
