Why not put it in VM?

The only thing I'd suggest if you do that is to have at least 32 GB of RAM, because I was in a situations where running few Electron apps, and Win11 VM caused RAM to fill up. But if you're not running Electron apps you should be fine with 16 GB.

And if you're planning to play games, you could use GPU passthrough for near-native performance, but from what I've heard it's a bit hard to set up.

Well from what I see it affects mostly old people and younger ones (at least if you trust media, I don't have any contact with people younger than 20, except my brother which is 6, so it doesn't really count). Millennials are probably the least affected ones.

Dunno when you were 10 or 13, but I will assume it’s not true.

It was in late 00's, and in Poland if that's relevant.

Stuff like “Boys don’t cry, you’re not a girl are you?” were very common in the 80s and 90s. It wasn’t as bad as today, but the foundations were already in place.

Sure, but that's not really some hardcore misogynist shit, like what is happening today.

You know what? We are beyond fucked. Even if I went with services that are respect all my privacy, I have probably already left (consciously or not) enough info on the internet, for data scrapers/AI tools/whatever to probably know me better than myself, and that's probably true for any person that have ever used internet.

Expect a lot of blackmailing in the near future, especially politicians and people in serious positions. Who knows, maybe it's already happening.

When I was 10, or 13 there were literally no issues like this at all. Well, I didn't even think about girls that much at that age, let alone in overly sexual way, lol.

What the actual fuck is happening with society recently? Is everybody going insane because of social media?

In my house 3 computers are already running Linux (Raspbian on Raspberry Pi, Debian testing on my PC and openSUSE on a family laptop), and I already talked with my dad to install Linux on his personal laptop as well, which is probably going to be Linux Mint (I am planning to replace openSUSE on other laptop with Linux Mint as well, because openSUSE sucks).

You can either uninstall new version of Notepad or return to the old one using some registry trick (look it up).

Or you can download some version of Microsoft Notepad on the internet (probably not really that safe) or even ReactOS Notepad if you really insist of having such simple program, but using I'd recommend to use something like Notepad++ instead.

These are good alternatives for Microsoft's Notepad and Paint:

  1. For Windows:
  1. For Linux (and other operating systems):
  • KWrite (or Kate if you want to have more advanced features like Git integration, project explorer, extensions, etc.)
  • Pinta (it recently got a pretty good 3.0 update, with GTK4/Adwaita integration)

That's actually pretty cool idea. Wasn't there some effort by Valve to support VR anyway on the Deck?

Laptop is hardly a whole desk setup though. AR is potentially going to be much better than using clunky laptops.
