Should I nuke my win10 install?

I got most of my games run pretty good now with the help of Steam compatibility and Wine now what should I do moving forward, win11 is a strong no go because I heard rumors about Microsoft locking bootloader with software update and I can’t stand fucking copilot/edge, should I wait until EOL or do it now? I’m pretty noob...

Yeah I’m like modding Skyrim not complex mods just texture mods but I don’t use Vortex I use MO2 (I think it has a Linux port) because it’s easier to troubleshoot

How old is the oldest building in the town you live in?

To those from the Western hemisphere, it’s always fascinating to hear that some homes and businesses from the times of the Greek philosophers still have inhabitants, and then you remember that the Western hemisphere is itself not without its own examples, for example some Mexican villages still have temples from the times of...

Sony phones>every other phones makers, hypocritically I use a Pixel because I can’t buy Sony phones where I lived

Torrenting exposes your public IP. In a country where government doesn't care, does that pose a risk?

I honestly don’t believe I will have any legal trouble because I don’t do anything like cp or worse, I just pirate media I like, not even porn. But across users of communities, or on public trackers, is IP exposure something to be concerned about?

I lived in Cambodia and the gov doesn’t really care about pirating media and games so I can pirate as much as I wanted but ironically they arrested one of the pirate bay founder here and deported him back to Sweden

Fedora is "the gaming" distro and perfect for Linux beginner confirmed (at least for me)

why? because it’s not triggering an obscure anti cheat on a game I’ve been playing when using wine (performance is still the same tho), everything else is just work no missing dependencies and it’s doesn’t get in my way like other distros (I tried Arch, Opensuse, Ubuntu, Debian), just to clarify I’m a complete noob...

Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone (www.theverge.com)

Microsoft is starting to enable ads inside the Start menu on Windows 11 for all users. After testing these briefly with Windows Insiders earlier this month, Microsoft has started to distribute update KB5036980 to Windows 11 users this week, which includes “recommendations” for apps from the Microsoft Store in the Start menu....

I heard they disable update if you have it (if it true that’s pretty scummy probably the scummiest of the scum)

How do you know if a book you pirated is complete/original/full etc ?

I downloaded a certain epub from Anna’s archive but as i have never read it before and i don’t know if it is a bad/incomplete copy or the real thing . I don’t think I’m allowed to say which book it is but do feel free to correct me and i’ll edit it in . So how do you solve this issue ? Like if it was a movie or tv...

Download multiple copies from multiple sources and compare them to see if it the same

If the book have volumes and chapters you can compare that if not take a peak at the very end of the book and see if it end with the same word (less accurate and might accidentally spoil yourself)
