    By definition, a continent and an island are mutually exclusive. Nothing can be both.

    Australia isn’t a continent either. It’s in the continent of Oceania, which includes New Zealand.

    Antarctica is a continent in its own right. It’s not a country and not a nation.






  • When you but an nvme bcache on your spinning rust (something Windows can’t do) and add fast LZO block compression (something Windows sucks at), games legitimately load much faster. You also get about 30% more games on the drive.

    Then the system boots and about 1GB RAM is used by the OS and desktop. The rest is free for your game.

    When Linux idles, it really idles. No background garbage. No periodic network activity. No antivirus scans. Pure computing silence.

    Fire up a game, and all the hardware becomes yours. The WINE implementation has been optomised to do Windows things faster than Windows can.

    At this point, the graphics drivers don’t even need to be as good to run faster.

    It’s not even limited to old or crappy games. Helldivers 2 and Arc Raiders run flawlessly.
