Hi everyone,...
Looking for a distro to dual boot with Win 11
I currently have a win 11 machine and would like to dual boot with Linux. Looking at some of the different options, it seems many aren’t recommended for dual booting. Are there any that are?
Describe an episode in the worst possible way
I’ll start: a naked guy complaining to his host that there’s less light than advertised.
Are there still any versions of Linux sold in a box like in the 90s / 2000s?
I’ve tried to find them to no avail. I’m guessing the box sets just aren’t made anymore, but I figured it’s worth asking in case there’s some obscure one out there somewhere....

Neat factor
I’ve messed around with Linux before, mostly in VMs, but I’m looking to switch over from Windows permanently on my laptop because I think Linux is cool. Most people in this community talk about pros and cons of this distro or this other distro, but I’d like to hear your opinions based on entirely subjective factors....
Questions about Linux-Linux dualboot
So I’ve had enough from partitioning my HDD between Linux and Windows, and I want to go full Linux, my laptop is low end and I tend to keep some development services alive when I work on stuff (like MariaDB’s) so I decided to split my HDD into three partitions, a distro (Arch) for my dev stuff, a distro (Pop OS) for gaming,...

Best Desktop Distro for Gaming?
I currently run windows 10 on my main desktop PC, and also have a steam deck that I sometimes use in desktop mode instead of my desktop. With the way Windows is going, and the way Linux Gaming is dramatically improving, I might consider ditching Windows, at least for the most part, on my next PC build. What would be the best...
