Windows is annoying. I like my computer just doing computer stuff. No AI. No Ads. No forced upgrades. No thanks. Just do the computer thing please.
i used to care about windows… i had to use and support it at work, it was easy to crack and maintain. then something changed and i walked away into linux land.
i still need to care about windows at work, but instead of getting all anx-y i just laugh it off. my employers are getting exactly what they chose.
its HILarious when shit doesnt work… a new version breaks all inter-company communication, all that nonsense is just pure entertainment now.
my canned response is ‘were all beta testers now, buckle up’

😂 absolutely best attitude. Maybe I need to do that at my job (what a shit show that is).
At this point I just have a windows 10 VM for using Adobe. Got a key for like $7 on some sketchy site.
And I was actually kinda liking windows 11, but it’s just clear where this is headed.
That’s not legal
Illegal stuff is bad, m’kay?
Adobe CC is the absolute only thing holding me to Windows on my primary machine. Please, I’d love to hear about your setup and workflow.
I just have a beast of a machine that has more RAM than I know what to do with.
I have a VM of windows 10 that runs in my 4th monitor at all times, it’s got 32 gigs of RAM and 2tb of storage. I have another VM that I only run for rendering which uses my whole GPU as passthru. (Having just the 1 windows VM do that interferes with gaming 😁).
I use my NAS for project folders and both VMs have access to the NAS.
I appreciate it, thank you for the explanation!
No problem!
The Windows VM is running in virtualBox. There’s a few options there, but virtualBox is easy. All you do is download a windows 10 install iso from microsoft, and then build the VM with virtualBox on your Linux system. That’s pretty much it. Windows install will ask for your key. I forget they place I got mine, I’m sure the sketchy markets are sketchy, so be careful/prudent.
