    Recently switched to linux, but still got my dualboot just for the forza horizon games. (Got 1-6 in microsoft account)

    Everything else is linux now and the switch wasnt all too Bad.

        I wish I could, but the horizon games are by far the best fusion of realistic driving and pure arcade fun. Along with banger Soundtracks. Fuck microslop, but I fuckin love Forza Horizon

    I REALLY want to switch to a Linux distro on my main machine, but every time I’m about to I find some hitch. It might be solvable, but I seriously don’t want to spend an hour looking up random commands I’ll never use again or remember.

      I try 3-5 distros every 3-4 months and always end back up on a debloated heavily modified windows.

      I don’t like windows, don’t get me wrong. But between driver issues, app issues, some utilities I can’t seem to find a replacement for, and a suboptimal shared remote access approach - I really can’t make things work well enough to not degrade my day to day work productivity.

      That said, I do run Linux distros for very specific things at work or my homelab just fine…I just can’t seem to figure out a way to run it as my dedicated personal and/or work machine without making heavy concessions.

    Before there was macroshaft windows there was xwindows. It came out in June 19th 1984 and as far as I’m concerened any windows I have to go through is a X window. It beat macroshaft to the name by over a year.
