If I was responsible I’d learn about that stuff now but that sounds like an October 13 problem tbh

Get that dual boot going, you can learn now and switch later.

I got a dual boot going so I could try Linux and have a windows fallback. Mint went so smoothly for me I never used my windows boot.

You’re right, I was just reluctant because my PC is really old and I was worried adding more stuff would just make it even more sluggish.

I asked my favorite AI and it told me not only was that wrong, but the opposite is probably true lol

What is October 13, besides being the day before my birthday?

Maybe they were referring to the Microsoft Halloween documents? Which were leaked on October 31 and was basically a manifesto against FOSS in general and specifically against Linux calling it “communist” software.

Oct 14 is last day of support for security updates without paying extra.

Instructions unclear, now I’m using the Windows terminal to launch Ubuntu and also have it running in Hyper-V. How does that help me if my windows is out of support? /s

On the one hand, rare Microsoft w to help users transition to their competitor.

On the other, they kinda yadda yadda over probably the biggest and most important part: choosing which of the billion distros is best for your needs and preferences…

The distro choice isn’t that difficult, as if you have experience with Linux you know what you need, and if you don’t, just choose any beginner-friendly distro (probably Ubuntu flavors and Mint).
