  • They are very precise, cover the whole french territory, are all in the same format, follow the same standards and the paper maps are not too expensive. There are topographical maps at a 1:25000 scale, and roadmaps at a 1:250000 scale. And these paper maps are as sturdy as they can be, my dad has been rocking some of them for almost his entire life.

    I guess I just get too excited about state funded institutions that provide good service to the public and still exist in 2024. Them paper maps can really be a lifesaver when you’re hiking in the more remote parts of France though












  • As far as I know they’re all bad in one way or another. Gigabyte allegedly has decent support, but from my anecdotal evidence you’re also more likely to need it. I’ve always bought Asus mobos and never had an issue with them. But I know it will not be a fun experience when it eventually happens.

    I stick to their high or middle end products though, imo their budget stuff is unreliable af (and the high end is bloated with useless features to inflate prices. But sometimes you can get a good deal on them).
