One year until Windows kills off normal Windows 10. Any predictions on what it will do for the Linux userbase? I just watched a video from ExplainingComputers on the topic, and the comment section is mostly all people making the transition.

I think the linux desktop will see a resurgence that coincides with how well LLM's improve with coding tasks and context length.
Barely anything, just like every other time people thought that Windows users would transistion to Linux

Yeah I don't know why people assume that folks will automatically run to Linux. If anything, people would go to Mac if they were leaving Windows.
either microsoft will change the TPM2.0 restriction, or people can use the Rufus hack to make a live W11 usb. i got W11 to boot on some pretty old hardware. it aint pretty but it works.
i predict an outcry over it. people were using XP and W7 for YEARS after it was EOL. MS still put out patches for meltdown/spectre.
this is a blatant attempt to force people to buy new computers and its gross
How did you end up choosing your distro btw? I stumbled into Debian because my Chromebook had it, but in retrospect, I never really knew which direction to turn when I made the leap lol.
Zorin. I was thinking debian or Ubuntu but I felt like any of those options would suffice so I ultimately just chose zorin haha.
The road to Arch Linux starts now

. I assumed that all powerful commands (ie `chown` `chmod`) required sudo, when really it's just system level folders or misconfigured permissions
