I'm happy to hear it. My first experience with Linux was Steam OS on the steam deck for one year. At first, I didn't get technical with it, but some time after I bought it, I started tinkering with the desktop environment and loved it. FF to recently, I had Bazzite. It was amazing, but it was a pain with the non-imutability of the system, then moved to Fedora KDE Plasma, and I love it. A very big plus for me on Linux over Windows is that I can play very, very old games on Linux, thanks to wine.

It's true, I know from experience that running Linux on old SP's is not easy, I also have an SP5 and I installed Linux on it, it took me a long time, time that not many people are willing to give just to experiment with stuff. What I can say about it is that it's working amazingly well, after I installed the Surface kernel... my pen works ok, the touch is weird, you can't press with the tip of the finger, due to how it reads touches, but it's a work in progress. Now, I use an SP8 with Fedora KDE for university, which works great. It took me just a few hours to install, due to me tinkering before with the SP5.

In my opinion, you should give it a try on a virtual machine, just to try it before installing it directly, and just give it another go. KDE came a long, long way now. It's not perfect, but it works very well.

Yes, it's known that it is possible to do that, but Windows 11 has TPU 2.0 requirements for a reason. As they say, it's for security. In my opinion, if you have to jump through so many hoops and loops to use a damn OS, just to use it as a home desktop or to use old tech, just move to Linux. You have Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Fedora KDE, Steam OS (not yet fully out), and many more. For a beginner who came from Windoes, I recommend Linux Mint. If you already have a Steam deck, for example, I recommend Bazzite (it's non-imutable) or Fedora KDE Plasma.

Edit: Sorry if I came out harsh, I didn't mean to sound like that, I just feel frustrated at how shit Windoes has turned in too

In fact, I do find myself in the sentence, I tinker with all types of stuff, I wouldn't have tried all of this if I didn't also like it. I could always be comfortable and stay with Windows, but Linux is fun and and it teaches me a lot about operating systems and networking. Thanks for your words, now I think I will try going with Arch, I decided.

I've never used NexOS. I'm a beginner with Linux, started with the steam deck, fell in love with it, tried bazzite on my main pc, hated the non-imutability of the os and then went to Fedora KDE Plasma, and I love it, everything is just easy to use. But I was thinking of trying Arch KDE. (SomeOrdinaryGamer made a video recently with Arch, and it intrigued me)

Thanks for the response, I've been tinkering, and before I read your message, I already started configuring the kernel for the surface. Now I am calibrating the touch. Sometimes, I wished I had something else than the surface, preferably something with an AMD processor... life would be a lot easier...

He wasn't always like this, he was a normal person, a good comediant, but when great and heavy responsibilities come, you change with the times, and for this man, times have been hell. I don't want to be him, knowingly sending my troops and young people to die because of a (insert a bad word for Putin).

Well, back to selling drugs I guess... not even selling hot dogs is allowed now... how can a honest man make his money today?

To be loved and hated at the same time, you just have to choose a side in politics, so, fuck Trump. I don't have a problem with the Republicans/conservatives. I think conserving one's nation and culture is important, but not attacking anyone and everything with discrimination. And I won't even get started on tariffs. The ones that will pay for it will be the everyday person, not the multi-billionares and milionars.

Oh, that's too bad. It would be such a big win if they start making deliveries outside Romania, being that they are so big there and a potential competitor for companies in the EU.

In Romania they have eMAG.ro, I heard that they are looking to move to other countries too. They are pretty big there.

Thanks, I'll try when I get back home
