    Therefore "more or less" ;) of course I didn't make a study on it, just traveled a bunch of countries and only in thosei noticed it... Needing to add that this is not something that would jump in my eye first time I visit a county.

    On a side note: in Germany, we use the -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 scheme, bit most of the times they write it more clear with: 1. OG (first upper floor), EG (ground floor), 1. UG (First lower floor). I think "upper" and "lower" is not a good translation, but I'm now to tired to think of someone better suiting

    Let me Google that for you:

    • early mentionetd of the concept of void in India Like 2k years ago*
    • "In the 9th century, during the intellectual flourishing of the Islamic Golden Age, zero became fully integrated into mathematics. "*
    • adoption to Europe around 12th century*

    Yes ok, a couple more than a could, but definitively not an order of magnitude...

    More or less everybody except US and Russia has zero floor, counting in big office buildings is fun: 3,2,1,-1,-2, I know... The concept of a number zero is not that old (couple hundred years, don't remember the details), but should be enough to update your language :-*

    Yeah, I got a couple of review requests of papers in fields I had absolutely no clue about. After declining the fivth I felt the need to press accept and spent the next weeks trying to get into that topic and write at least something useful. That moment I learned were all those BS reviews come from, which I usually get for my papers XD

    That is a patent, not a copyright. If you sell you car, you don't have it anymore. If somebody steals your car, you don't have it anymore. What I'm on about is the difference between material and intellectual goods. You can read it up, if your school didn't cover it.

    Of course I'm really not a fan of whatever they do and I would never buy an Ubisoft game for at least a decade now, but I still think that a lot of people should don't know what buying means and that they never, ever bought (and hence owned) a game or movie. Those are not material goods like a car, which you can physically transfer from one person to another. Those are intellectual goods, and ownership here means you own all rights for it, which usually only the publisher has. What you buy online or in a shop is mere a license to watch/play/use/whatever and a medium with the associated data (like a DVD).

    Therefore "piracy" had never been theft (or robbery, as it is called so nicely on German news). It is a license violation. Just that doesn't sound as demonizing as the publisher want it to sound.

    Hello everybody, I recently purchased some parts for my first homeserver, but I am not really happy with the case, because it just a tremendous waste of space. I am running an ASRock N100M micro-ATX with two Sata SSDs and one PCIe x1 NIC and Pico PSU to power it. So I am looking for a minimal/small case to fit exactly this. What I find usually has no accommodation for PCIe cards, or wastes 50% of its space for a full ATX PSU and an optical drive tray... or it just cost more then the whole PC together. Since it is such a minimal setup I am hoping to pay the lower end of case prices (~30-50euro). Does somebody here has an idea? Best wishes

    Dear fellow enthusiasts, my wife and I finally got stable enough in our living situation, that we can buy some new hardware (ours is 7+ years, while hers is a laptop). So I went out into the wild wild web to catch up with 7years of hardware progress (I am technological affine, but not following the trends in any way) and wanted to run by my first iteration of a setup with the infinite wisdom of this community. For the background: both of us only use Linux at home and at work and do not plan to change this. We do not play AAA games, the most demanding game we play as of late is probably Dota2, ARK and GTNH (a Minecraft mod pack, that eats your ram for breakfast). Hence we won't need cutting edge hardware, more like an upper end budget setup. Anyway, with my last PC I had tons of troubles with the mainboard, the GPU (nvidia) and other stuff, even though I thought I checked stuff in advance, so I wanted to have an outside opinion. TL;DR: here my draft, with prices from an online store: - Mainboard: ASRock B650M-H/M.2+ **97.90€** - CPU: AMD Ryzen 7™ 7700, 8 core, 3.800 MHz base, AM5, 32 MB L3 cache **227.90€** - GPU: XFX Radeon RX 6650 XT Speedster SWFT 210 Core Gaming, RDNA 2, GDDR6, 3x DisplayPort, 1x HDMI 2.1 **249.90€** - RAM: ADATA DIMM 32 GB DDR5-4800 (2x 16 GB) Dual-Kit, **84.90€** - PSU: be quiet!
