Nvidia used to be the easy way to go. The open-source Nouveau driver lacked functionality. The official Nvidia driver was proprietary but worked well. (Though the Radeon drivers were proprietary at the time too. And Intel graphics hardware was always poor.)
Wild how things turn around.
Serious question because I'm in the same situation of switching to LM, having a nvidia GPU. Your talking in past tense.. so nouveau drivers are actually useful now? Talking HDR, Gsync and DLSS
You'll want the nvidia drivers. Nouveau is now usable with AMD cards I think, I'm on nvidia so I'm not 100% sure on that
Windows 9 was peak. Nobody hated Windows 9
by that logic nobody loved windows 9 either
Win9 was the shit. Literally a flawless release. No vulnerabilities, no bugs, surprisingly little spyware. I don't think I ever had a BSOD with 9.
well i can’t exactly argue with that one
It wasn't a release tho.
And for a reason
The power of Ventoy cannot contain Windows
which is ironic because afaik ventoy is the only way to make a windows installer from linux
huh??
you can just flash/dd the iso directly, no need for ventoy
It's not possible to dd a Windows ISO to a USB stick.

Thanks for the info, good read
I've literally never used the media creation tool, i always installed windows from isos flashed with rufus/balena/dd/whatever
Aren't Rufus and balena media creation tools?
by media creation tool, i mean specifically the proprietary "Windows Media Creation Tool" that can be downloaded from the Microsoft website
damn, really? i thought windows had some weird stuff that wouldnt work properly with dd. doesnt really matter. i have no need for windows anyways
It's certainly not, there are other iso to USB drive tools for Linux. But the only way to make a Windows To Go USB from Linux is with rufus on a Windows VM with USB passthrough.
Nah man, before ventoy was created there was this one https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB
Akchually, before ventoy was created everyone used this to do what you're talking about https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB
Why would you preinstall windows 11
Manufacturers install Windows as the default OS. And it's safe to assume that a modern gaming PC would have W11 pre-installed.
And this is why we build own pcs
Unless you install Windows it shouldn't be preinstalled
It'd be nice if an OS pre installation option was available in the manufacturer's website. I'm sure Linux would get a bump in popularity by the average person if it led to a dip in their PC/laptop's overall price.
I was trying to make a joke about Linux users building computers out of mixed used components.
It was a bad joke anyway
Can someone help me know what the linux distribution this symbol is?
Linux Mint. I made the logo seem worn down as to indicate that the USB has been used a lot.
