        Only semi-related: Why do they always show pictures of Gates when he hasn't been involved in MS in a long time? Why never Satya Nadella?

          My gaming PC is on Win 11 because it's recent and I'm lazy and it's convenient. My laptop runs Win 10 so it'll be Linux I guess. Not really looking forward to finding a distro and reinstalling and whatnot but what can you do. It's been a good few years since I last had a Linux box so I'm pretty rusty and not up to date on the recent best distros.

            I was thinking the same thing. He will just forever be known as the guy. Maybe it will change once he dies?

                    It's maybe some kind of circular logic, but my brain doesn't recognize a picture of Satya Nadella = "Microsoft's CEO" for some reason.

                      I've been trying to get a good domain authed nix set up for a while. Alternately, if I could set up a gaming server using sunshine/moonlight.

                          Most people won't budge. It doesn't matter if Win10 is unsupported or isn't getting a security update, I reckon a solid 40 of 43% will just stay on it until programs they use stop working.

                            My gaming 'puter is running win 10, and the plan is to replace it with one running Manjaro. Will have to see when that happens, not upgrading to win 11.

                              Moonlight is still alive? I used to use it constantly and was really disappointed when support for it discontinued.

                                For gaming, people often recommend Pop!_OS, Bazzite, or Zorin, but you can use whatever you want if you are a tinkerer. I use Debian and have a great time gaming.

                                Outside of gaming and if Windows software compatibility isn't really something you're worried about, you can use any distro you want.

                                You can try some of them out using a web browser with DistroSea if you feel like it, though they don't have every distro because that would be nuts.

                                  Maybe your brain would, if it had a chance to connect the two if they posted more pictures of Satya and Microsoft in the same context...

                                    I used to use UbuntuStudio back when I was playing around with music recording and production ages ago because it ran the real-time kernel which was important for JACK I think. Last time though was just Mint.

                                          Already did and it's glorious! Steam works beautifully and the only final thing that I'm missing is Adobe products.
