On my duel booted system I still have windows. But I haven’t had to use it in a couple weeks and at this point might just delete it and go fully into Linux only. Just a few windows only apps that are making me unsure. Might try windows vm.
Honestly if I played any games that had anti cheat I would run a windows vm in QEMU/KVM. Go the GrapheneOS route and sandbox the spyware (cough Google and Microsoft cough)
I have a Windows install that I haven’t booted up in 2 years. I didn’t really use it anyway. I just had one thing to finish there, but I am lazy.
I only used it for a few weeks after getting that laptop while waiting for Linux kernel 5.8 which would finally support that hardware as nothing older booted up.
I’ve been doing that since 2013. I run Arch btw.
You make an excel to track your operating system of choice for the year but don’t include the distro?!? For shame.
Did you stop using a computer between 1994 and 2001? I feel like there’s some interesting story in there.
Me a few months back when I accidentally formatted the Windows drive I was keeping for dual booting just in case.
“Guess I’m a full timer now”
I heard you liked Linux so much, I installed Linux on ALL your harddrives
Imagine a 1tb drive partitioned into 16gb parts and a different distro on each. I have ALL the Linuxes.
By the time i got my current pc I hadn’t booted into windows for several months in the old one, so it never got installed on this one.
There’s like literally 3 games that are preventing me from dropping windows entirely.
I cannot, for the life of me, get Hogwarts, Forza 5 and Immortals of Aveum to run with wine.
Have you tried using Proton through Steam? It’s possible to load in external games and programs.
Uhm aveum, and hogwarts works with proton for sure, because I played them with my Linux desktop. Aveum had some issues, but should work OOB now.
Forza I don’t know :/ Weird
Holy shit never thought I would run into a user in the wild who actively seeked out Immortals of Aveum
