You guys have windows partitions?
I keep dual windows on laptop for rare occasions cuz I don’t like dealing with passthrough for special USB cables that require their own drivers on VMs
Need for interacting with hardware, so yeah, have it on bare metal, plus in a VM.
I do. I wanted to finish something there that I couldn’t easily move to Linux. A DVD project using files scattered accross the system in DVDStyler. I didn’t notice DVDStyler works on Linux.
Now I am basically keeping it due to sunk cost fallancy. It has lots of menus and videos, plus some of them I cut myself. But I don’t even remember where I ended. There was also something about color limitation in menus I wanted to fix. I last shut it down during an update about 2-3 years ago.
But who knows, maybe later at some point…
But I could really use those extra 400GB. I only have 15GiB free right now…
I installed one when I made my first Linux PC last month in case I needed to use Windows for anything that wouldn’t work fine enough on Linux.
One month later and I still haven’t used it for anything. I think I may have underestimated how fleshed out the Linux ecosystem is these days.
