You know how people don’t like paying for streaming services because they have enshittified and grown more expensive?

Yeah, you’re just doing that for your own self hosted service.

Oh, I do both. My whole point was to avoid partitioning one physical disk to install both OSes on.

My current setup:

-Windows 11 installed on one NVMe. This is only for playing games that absolutely won’t work any other way.

-Pop OS on another NVMe. This is my main OS.

-Windows 11 VM in VirtualBox for work stuff and normal applications (Adobe…)

Proc is a Ryzen 5 9600x. Machine currently has 64gb DDR5 RAM at 5200mhz.

That’s effectively the same as what I described, is it not? The only difference is you’re using GRUB to choose what to boot into. It’s still a two disk setup with Windows separate from the Linux disk.

Can’t say I would recommend dual booting both OSes off the same drive. Windows causes too many problems. Put Windows on an entirely separate drive instead and boot to it by changing the boot device in the BIOS.

Fuck that noise too.

That’s okay, it had to be done.

You’re right, but it does still work.

Downloading music from YouTube will get you MP3s, but they will have gone through the YT compression algorithms.

Use Deemix instead. Downloads MP3s straight from the Deezer servers with all metadata and album art.

Kurt Cobain has probably been gone longer than these people have been alive.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It depends on the version, but yes, it does. It’s especially a problem on prebuilt machines and laptops. It is incredibly annoying to work with in a corporate environment. Our helpdesk tech comes to me with issues related to this probably three times a week. I gave up with work arounds and we just have a throwaway Microsoft account now.
