In theory all Linux distributions support the same hardware. Its just that sometimes you need to manually install drivers and configure sth. And on Other distros you don't need to do that for certain hardware.
I guess Linux Mint is usually pretty good at default support, but of course not everything will work.
Now about if certain hardware has Linux support:
Check if the manufacturer is claiming Linux support. This is the best case, you can assume it just works.
If there is no mention about it from the manufacturer it is still possible to have support. Use an online search machine and enter "specific hardware Linux support" or use linux mint instead of linux so that you can be sure it works for your distro.
What usually works almost always:
Motherboards(except if they are a few months old from release)
Keyboards (unless they are gaming keyboards with special tools like razer, then only the normal keyboard functions are working without special config)
Monitors
Grafic cards (they don't work from day one release, you should always wait a few months)
Yeah why would valve try to place the steam machine at the gaming pc sector?
This sector is heavily contested by many sellers. And you can't be cheaper than building your own rig. And on top of that, almost every pc enthusiast has already steam installed, there is no point to build a pc for gaming for valve.
However when you go into the console space things are very different. The steam machine has no problem competing with an Xbox, PlayStation or Nintendo switch.
Now performance isn't everything, now you have steam on a console like pc. People can play their already owned games and by new ones for playing on the TV.
Hallo, ich erkläre euch jetzt warum Island eingezäunt ist.
Island ist etwas weiter Nord-Westlich auf derm Globus. Doch da dies die Ansicht von Europa zu sehr verkleinern würde hat man es aus der Ansicht heraus genommen und mit einem Kasten wieder eingefügt.
Der Witz hier ist jetzt, dass man annimmt Island wäre dort schon richtig und nur mit einem Kasten eingezäunt. Diese Abstrusität wird als Humor empfunden.
In my opinion the stupid bus that entered the round about when already 3 buses where in there.
I mean get that there was space, but man you could have waited 20 seconds and everything would have been fine.
