How nice of Windows to spam me with notifications when I temporarily fill my scratch disk, despite turning them off…

      Imagine being an adult professional that uses windows programs for their job… I have several Linux machines that are workhorses in my pipeline, but using windows is just not something a lot of people can avoid.

        There’s been a solution of, provided two usable graphics processors, running Linux and virtualizing Windows underneath it with the gaming GPU for only a 5-8% loss.

          Way to complex. And also way too much work to have it break the next update. As much as I love Linux (hell, I’ve been using Linux on and off since 2004, when I was 14 and got my first hand me down Laptop…) and as much as I admire the progress…it still isn’t there, especially with peripherals. Getting a DD to work on Linux is a nightmare.
