Best distro for gaming?
Hi guys
I just bought a used msi gs70 laptop with ubuntu installed on it, but I don't really dig it, so I'm looking for the best linux distro for gaming, it has to be stable and low on system resources. I'm thinking about manjaro and mint, but I'm new to linux so I could use some help.
Also sorry for formatting, I'm writing this on mobile

# Does there exist a *Visual Grep*? A "grep for images"?
Hi, everyone. Terminal users:
Does anyone have a solution to searching through images? I'm talking about *image-to-text* engines (if that's what they're called). That would be more suited to images with text.
Memes, document/ticket scans, etc. Do such engines exist, and are they available? Is there a way to search for an image by a string of text you remember that's in the image?
And what about generic photos where there is hardly any text? Do terminal users use some kind of tagging software? When the default `IMG-20201230.jpg` type filenames and directories just aren't enough, what do you do?
Sorting my months or trips is good, but then if you wanted to tag some images from multiple directories, how do you do it? When the file system isn't enough...
This is one of the times I'm jealous of my phone's GUI.

The kernel on Debian Buster hasn't been updated in over two months
Debian Buster is running kernel 4.19.67-2+deb10u2, it was released on 2019-11-11, over two months ago. According to Debian's own tracker, the kernel is vulnerable to several issues.
[https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/linux](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/linux)
Overall, updates have been pretty sparse over the past few months, last time my machine received an update was on December 20, almost one month ago, I believe that other packages might be lacking security patches. At this point Debian Buster can no longer be considered secure.
I'm just trying to raise awareness towards the issue, as I haven't seen anyone else talking about this, hopefully a developer can chime in and explain what's happening.

What's going on with 4.19 LTS? Support ending 2020?
According to [kernel.org](https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html), the LTS kernel 4.19 has a projected EOL of [December 2020](https://imgur.com/a/G2wny1N), the end of this year. What's up with that? Shouldn't any LTS kernel be supported for many years?

What distro should I install?
Recently bought a new hp laptop and it's giving me a hard time installing Linux. Mainly because of its Nvidia card, some distros won't even boot, like kde neon or mint. The few that do install properly encounter other problems like bugs or wifi driver related. Is there any distro reccomended for very modern laptops that I could look into?
