Imma just update: I have given up and wiped the drive to use it as a game drive for windows again. Each turn just gave hours of headache and I’m just done trying.

Installing Mint took over 3 hours of searching obscure errors with solutions that were way too technical. In the end having gone from 5pm to 11pm just to get Mint dual booting. Got it installed and got teamspeak and stuff installed, after a bit too long having to find out but that’s fine. Spent 4 hours trying to get steam games to run, not a single working boot and couldn’t find anything online.

I might try again once I get my new AMD based game pc whenever I have budget for it. But for now, nah this took too long and took way too much effort. I just started a new work project which has already been exhausting and I just plain don’t have the energy to bother with this. Its not plug and play like people like to say online.

I installed mint yesterday and am having a PAIN installing anything not in the software manager. Currently stuck on teamspeak as my first thing to try. Got a tar.gz and can’t find anything well explained online (as of yet, it was already 3 hours just to get mint to dual boot and I was exhausted)

I wouldn’t be surprised tbh

How could this

I still haven’t been told I’ve been officially banned, they just give me server errors all the time (only on my main account, not when going on any other account/incogni)

Enough once in a lifetime events bro 😭

Literally this, I watch the rookie with my friends. Everything but the last season is on netflix. Want to watch the last season? Good luck!

I’m currently not what I’d call financially stable seeing as I don’t know how much my move is gonna cost. But I put some money towards VLC and once my finances are stable again in the summer I’ll look into supporting more open source stuff that I’m using. Thanks for the reminder

Its not “just” setting it up but getting all software I need, installing the games again, getting my whole spiel in the browser working correctly again, figuring out how to set up and use dual booting.

The reason I want to do it on a new pc is cause I’ll still have my old one to use until I find the new one set up enough to replace it, so if I can’t figure it out in a day I can still have some relaxation time. I can sell the old one after.

Because I just plain don’t have the time right now. I’m busy with buying an apartment and getting all of that set up while also starting a new project at work. When I have time to relax I want to relax and not have to setup an entire new PC.

I want to get the new pc after the moving is done as long as I have budget left, so it would come at the same time as when I would be interested in putting the effort in to setting up dual booting.

I’ve tried using Linux in Virtualbox on windows and use that for anything but gaming but its just plain annoying working like that certainly with multiple monitors.

I was thinking of doing that once I get my new pc. But having to close and reboot a pc every single time I want to play one of those games is quite a pain (certainly when wanting to do it with friends)

If I was able to just have a windows VM running while keeping Linux on my other monitors it’d be fine tbh

That’s a comically high and specific %

They just plain don’t even want the tourism money

Agree with your Anti-cheat point. I soooo want to move over to Linux but mainly Valorant is keeping me from switching (and I probably have other games like PUBG that might not work on Linux either?, while writing this checked and yep: https://www.protondb.com/app/578080)

You have to where I live :)
