Just dual boot…
I dream of a world where I don’t have to dual boot.
Due to planned virtualisation in Windows this will probably soon be the case for people who Dual boot due to anticheat.

I must have missed something. What are you referencing with this comment?
They want to prevent spooky programs running in the kernel (like crowdstrike) which may break the whole system. Source: https://www.theverge.com/2024/7/26/24206719/microsoft-windows-changes-crowdstrike-kernel-driver
Perhaps I’m being dense but how do you see this helping Linux Gaming?
Even assuming that VBS-E allows Game Devs to shift their current kernel based anti-cheat over to it there’s no guarantee that Linux will get a compatible VBS-E module nor that Game Devs would allow its use.
I guess I see it as: If a Game Dev does this (use VBS-E) AND Linux gets a compatible module AND Game Devs allow its use THEN newer games may not have the same problem with anti-cheat as older ones.
The way I understand it is that every anticheat needs to be overhauled as they can no longer tap into the kernel/get kernel access. So the anticheat has to run in userspace. This can also be done under GNU/Linux which is why anticheat should work on both platforms.
please.
It seems quite likely actually. The only problem might be them noticing the benefit for GNU/Linux.
their ecosystem of apps is buggy as fuck.
teams and outlook always gives me headaches.
Ugh, outlook has been dropping support for email standards for a while now, it’s getting close to a proprietary standard now.
On a more serious note as a windows user it just does a good enough job that I don’t want to put in any effort for something better.
What the fuck is all this anti-Windows 11 talk? I have never had a problem with it. Is it because of functionality or something else? Because, functionality wise, it’s been fine for me. 🤷🏼♂️
Oh shit I didn’t realize this was in Linux. Welp o7 I go down with my ship lmao
Brave of you to walk into the
lion’slinux den with thatI was genuinely like, “oh no no no no” when I noticed. But oh well, it’s kinda funny to me.
Yeah I got a laugh from the edit as well, this is a meme community after all.
Alright, as much as I want to give Microsoft the double birds and leave, way too many modding programs are .exe based.
And I just cannot yet be fucked to learn how to do per-app emulation. It scares me, things just sort of work here, and I can give them one and a half birds by removing almost all their telemetry garbage.
That being said I do really like the idea of Linux, I just want a little bit more idiot friendliness out of it
I have a Windows VM specifically for that purpose. Game directories are mounted as network drives. The only issue is that I can’t use hardlink deployment in Vortex, but Nexus is making a new app to replace it that might have a Linux-native release.
Man, we as a community really ought to put more effort and resources helping out FreeCAD.
For me it’s all about learning freecad so I can look down upon the cloud cad peasants 😹
For real though I completely agree. Freecad is just a plugin away from having a more accessible UI.
the ui is actually pretty good when you get used to it imo, it’s just that it’s very busy and intimidating for beginners
I think there should just be a simple builtin tutorial that beginners can access, that guides them through making a cylinder or something to assure them that freecad isn’t as intimidating as it looks
That’s a good idea, and I think that teaching yourself parametric CAD for the first time in freecad is extra difficult because it is easy to do things that look like they may work but actually break you model (especially dragging stuff around in the hierarchy).
