    I’ve been mostly Windows free for 6 months now. I use Win 11 for work and I bought an old Surface Pro 4 with Win 11 installed to learn Nomad Sculpt. I am just too afraid of testing Linux on a machine tailor made around Windows.

    Nice to see others get it, 22 years after I got it, even if it did take a hella load more egregious malware impositions.

        Depends how you interpret it.

        Linux has been easy that long. Contrary to the message that goes around that it’s hard. This indeed is very encouraging.

        Windows is abusing you. Contrary to the message that goes around that it’s your only salvation. This is indeed very encouraging.

        If interpreting that instead as “I’m so great, you’re all slow” self aggrandising put down of others, it’ll be a turn-off to many. But that’s not the case. It’s more like, “even I! you can too!” in all humility and positive encouragement.

        Interpretation’s a bitch.

    Come on in a few weeks? I thought it’d be the whole process and not just the planning stages…

      Cant rush these things. ;)

      Especially if wanting to make sure there’s no data loss or unnecessarily extended disruption to productivity.

      … But yeah. Does seem one can rush an article out before the story’s complete.
