Please don’t hold your breath, you will die. I most certainly can say that.

I don't know what caused it exactly

First time, I had same drive. Then I read that it is better to have different drives, so second time I installed Windows on a different drive. It still managed to mess up Linux.

It is highly hardware and game dependent. I can run any game that came before 2019 on my 1060 on both with similar performance. Anything that came after that is hit or miss. For example, Until Dawn remake does not launch on linux but runs smooth (barring some menu hangs) on Windows 10.

They will put up a committee to fire everyone who let the information leak

Their profits, yes.

Some people have estimated 8x energy use for 5 as compared to 4 but the model is not 8x better, this has to be a clue to them that increasing power is not the way. But nope, trillions of dollars more will fix it.

when running as your main OS windows very quickly gets bogged down with everything you want to run on it.

in a VM you're only running the 1 thing you need on a fresh install, potentially a screenshot of that fresh install so it's always running at peak.

Well this is a big difference lol

No, it doesn't. Any VM is going to be slower than bare metal due to the host OS overhead and restrictions in some hardware access.

If you don’t have hardware that supports Windows 11, 10 LTSC is good enough

Windows 10 deleted my PopOS bootloader, again

Where is the shareholder value in that?
