Comment on Forced E-Waste PCs And The Case Of Windows 11’s Trusted Platform
tehn00bi@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoI remember suse and Debian where ahead of the curve back then. Package managers really changed the game when they started showing up around then. I will admit I’m probably a little too cynical. But I had to run windows through college for various software, and until recently playing most games on Linux was quite the challenge. Steam has truly cracked the code. So I’m dipping my toes back into Linux for daily use. I’ve been running my truenas server for a few years now and run several Linux VM’s so I’m not starting from scratch.

I was pretty lucky in university as most of my profs were either using cross platform stuff or Linux exclusive software. I had a single class that wanted me using windows stuff and I just dropped that one.
Awesome that you’re getting back into it, it’s definitely the best it’s ever been (and you’re right that Steam cracked the code). It sounds like you probably know what you’re doing if you’re running Linux VMs and stuff, but feel free to shoot me a PM if you run into any questions or issues I might be able to point you in the right direction for.
