Wards 2002

The Singida Rural District was administratively divided into 30 wards:

gollark: I run Linux on everything, and it works nicely, as I can avoid Windows-only programs.
gollark: Not AAA-type games, since I don't like those and don't have the computing power available for them.
gollark: I only have Minecraft, FTL, Slay the Spire, TIS-100, Factorio, Civlization V, sort of thing.
gollark: Apparently I have 17GB of games, because I play sensible games which do not use half my disk for textures.
gollark: I was foolish and only bought a 120GB disk for my laptop, so most of my stuff can only fit on my server(s).
