My recommendation would be to have Linux on the 500gb drive and then install windows directly on the other drive without partitioning. I wouldn’t install Linux on a partition as Windows likes to mess with the bootloader but if Linux is on it’s own drive you can always boot it from EFI without issues.

Fuck Empress, however she’s right on this specific matter.

Easy actually. I’m on arch (Hyprland) right now, so no longer EOS but it’s been refreshing. I’d recommend EOS as a base for any arch install, better than “arch installer” by a long shot. If you have dedicated storage I’d recommend using it and booting to the respective system through EFI rather than relying on software bootloader (windows likes to break it). I am running arch on a dedicated SSD and it’s been smooth so far.

I felt the Adobe part. I bought Photoshop CS2 back in the day then sadly lost the license key a few years later. I never felt bad for pirating the latest version.

Another example of ethical piracy would be when offline games force you to be online all the time. Minecraft forces me to be online to play through the official launcher. Since I also play with mods that are still a few versions behind, I downloaded a cracked launcher so I can play even when I don’t have internet access.

Thank you, I will read it

I have to log in to xfce for the profile to take effect. I set Nvidia settings to start at login, even though the process does start on Wayland it doesn’t apply anything until I enter xfce, then I can exit it and start my Hyprland session

Enabling G-Sync and increasing digital vibrance on my second monitor. Everytime I need to increase the vibrance on my second monitor I have to first boot into xfce, open nvidia settings until the profile loads then log out and then log into hyprland. It’s very annoying.

btrfs snapshots

I had a snapshot with Timeshift but did not revert back any changes made to the theming I was working on, so I distro hopped.

Depends on the distro, something like EOS is basically Arch with fancy pants on.

Want your brains blown? Check out ArchCraft. Yes it’s a pay to download thing but they cover everything, i3, Sway, Hyprland, QTile. You name it, they have it (as long as it’s WM). For people like me who don’t have time (nor skill, I’m humble enough to admit it) this is gold. And you can change themes as you like as long as you have basic intermediate skills. As long as you can use a text editor and have some basic arch skills you can customize upon it.

With that being said, I don’t like pay to download content, reason why I’m on Linux first and foremost. But I gotta give credit where credit is due. ArchCraft is blowing away everything else when it come to pre customized WM experiences. Such an eye candy omg.

Not much difference between sway and Hyprland

I used to be on Majaro for awhile, years ago but I wouldn’t recommend it now. It doesn’t have any of the advantage of an Arch based distro. Their own repo has issue. I would recommend Endeavour OS

What Arch based distoe were you on? I would love to spend some time on Debian and OpenSUSE eventually. Also Fedora is intriguing, I wished I tried it already.

I’ve had experience with Debian based and Arch based distros only. I was on Majaro for months before I had to switch back to windows and leave Linux behind for awhile

i3 for while but I mainly used xfce. Hyprland overall feels “new”, unlike X11, Wayland just “flows” better in a way. i3 felt more clunky but overall more stable, if that ever makes sense.

It kinda is, just went from EOS to Arch with Hyprland today. It’s hard to move to something that feels less up to date.

Anything Arch, because it’s hard, it’s a pain in the ass and as an intermediate user I need Arch to break on me so I can fix it and learn.

Leaks suggests that the iPhone 15 will have a USB-C charging port. Also I can’t imagine Apple going full wireless thus incapacitating the user’s ability to effectively use the phone while charging.

That’s it. I don’t know why it was commented in the first place. Thanks for pointing it out! Now it works

I understand and using Windows for certain things is perfectly valid. Perhaps things will change in a few years and we’ll be able to run all the plugins with a system similar to WINE, or something like that.
