  • Power is a big factor. I've never built a specifically torrenting machine, but I've added torrenting containers to my virtualized NAS, and for that I've built a server based on an AsRock integrated board, it's passively cooled so it's silent and intrinsically power efficient. They're usually limited in RAM, but I got it up to 32GB by buying verified compatible sticks.

    As for building ratio, something like autobrr helps get the torrents as soon as they are announced, improving your uploads, and on trackers where it is supported, seed bonus is nice, you can keep seeding old torrents and convert the points to upload.

  • I use Nobara on my desktop and Fedora on my laptop, they both work fine, although I've had a few audio issues on Nobara, but it could be the different hardware. I don't play emulators, but every game I've tried on Nobara worked with no fiddling, just recently: Cyberpunk 2077, Subnautica, Horizon Forbidden West, X4...

    I've been using Fedora for I don't know how long, over a decade I'd say, and it's hard to overstate it's stability, it just works, and has great repos. My main annoyance is the frequent major version updates, it's a quick process anyway, and I never had problems.

  • Thanks a lot! I've been an avid reader as a kid, I use it a lot online, and I also used to travel quite a bit for work, although that probably hindered me more than helping, as, aside from a bunch of visits to the US a looong time ago, I rarely visited English-speaking countries; everywhere else I always had to adapt my English to the local accents and common errors.

    The best was visiting other romance-language-speaking countries, where we started off with English, then began incorporating each others' language until every time we ended up with weird mixes that I liked to call Desperanto.

  • So I'm old enough and from a poor (at the time) enough area that I was taught French from middle school to the first years of high school... I learned nothing.

    I learned English by myself just by reading stuff online.
