I've successfully used a 1050 Ti and a 3060 Ti with Linux Mint and the proprietary drivers (selected through the GUI driver manager). So if anyone reading this is in a similar situation it might be worth it to try that.

Strangely enough I feel like that crucification isn't much associated with the Romans. Even though the Romans were the ones who carried it out Judas gets almost 100% of the ire.

Even Jews are given more blame by antisemitic Christians. Like, no one is starting up a pogrom against Italians because their great great great grandpa might've been the guy who stabbed Jesus in the ribs.

When people think about Rome they usually imagine the roads and the aquaducts and not so much the crucifixions and the slavery.

Are they helpful?

I think you may have misread their comment.

Lower cost of living in china, ignoring of fair wages, ignoring of environmental concerns all reduce costs

Not making land yachts and not actively having a temper tantrum over the market transitioning to EVs might both be contributing factors as well.

Copyrights (rights to media content) do not lapse because of failure to enforce them.

Trademarks (the right to call your product a specific name) can lapse if members of the general public start associating it with a type of product rather than your specific brand. This happened with "zipper", "jet ski", and "popsicle". But you can't sue Grandma Smith because she mistakingly referred to an Xbox as "a Nintendo".

From watching the opening I didn't like the writing of the dialogue.

Pretty good track record with videogames too.

Some ARM CPUs that are advertised as microcontrollers have 32 bit address spaces and roughly the same power as an i486.

Big Bang Theory is less like nerd humor and more like autism blackface.
