The modern Plasma System Monitor replaces the old KSysguard

They usually use modern to give the impression of better, and old to mean outdated. Unfortunately, in the last two decades or so, it's been the opposite more than often. And not only in software.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyAh, no...

I've read your post attentively and I must say I rarely saw such a distorted view of History and basic concepts :sad:
Too bad we can't sit and have a long argument over a bottle of Scotch.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyBut the basic thing about capitalism is this: Ownership of what Marx called "the means of production" by private individuals

That's the Marxist interpretation and the origin of many a misconception.
What we today call Capitalism was not a system but a handful of circumstances together at the right time. It's not an idea, it just happened. And it started to go wrong when two of its main pillars were taken: first sound money (gold) followed by small government.
What should we call today's fiat money and leviathan governments? Don't know but Capitalism it ain't.

Quoting: ArehandoroNeo-liberalism is just another evolution of capitalism

No, it's a perversion made possible by fiat money.

Quoting: ArehandoroAnd capitalism did not start in XVIII it goes back to the Italian republics and their wealthy banks

You're wrong, but this is not the place to deepen the conversation.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyCapitalism is the system we live in

No it isn't.
One of the fundamentals of what is called Capitalism was sound money a.k.a. gold/gold standard. That stopped in 1916 and never came back.
Capitalism went from aprox. mid XVIII century to WWI and it was wonderful. It unleashed so much wealth creation as Humanity never dreamed of. We're still benefiting today. Just.

Quoting: iiariBummer, 16:9 screen...

Quite :angry:
16:9 has no place in smaller screens. 3:2 or 16:10 all the way.
Even in larger monitors 16:10 is much superior to 16:9.

I checked the system requirements of the original Rome: Total War, it's 2.9 GB plus 500 MB for Windows swap file.
How do you go from that to 45 GB, plus an additional 30 GB for the DLC? :huh:
