  • Well it’s a little complicated. Tolkien wrote it as one novel, which contained 6 books + appendices. But the publisher didn’t want to publish a 1200 page (iirc) book, so they made him divide it into 3 volumes, each containing 2 books, and then they titled them to be what we know them as.

    Fun fact, the only title he wasn’t happy with was The Return of the King, because it gave away what happens in the book.







  • Right, but that’s top of the line stuff. You can easily build a PC with a 70 tier GPU for less than $1500 and you’ll still have a kickass gaming PC.

    The XX70 tier equivalent mountain bikes cost like $3000-$3500. I’m thinking along the lines of a Trek Remedy 7 (which is what I have), a base Santa Cruz Bronson, or a base Specialized Stumpjumper. There are plenty more but those are just 3 from some big brands.
