I exhausted the WINE route, some games I want to play don't work with Proton no matter how much you tweak (the first time I'm running into this in a few years) as well as some additional software. There's also a driver I need to run that's technically available on Linux but it's a reverse engineered solution developed by one guy so who knows if it's gonna keep working.

Will it maybe work if I just unplug my Linux drive during the Win install?

Good thinking, I'll definitely look into that. One caveat is I'm going to need a driver that's also Win-only so I'll have to see if that works in a VM.

I wish there was a single day that this fucker wasn't in my feed, he thrives on attention and people are giving it to him

If you regularly need to take stool samples like me it's easier as well. On the downside it's smellier.

Exact experience I've had, in every workplace I've been Windows users have been a non-stop liability and required support for workarounds and hacks. Seeing their workflow through screenshare was kind of a culture shock.

I have no idea how Windows is the red line in this, it should be the green but even steeper

99% of the time it's just "make && sudo make install" or something like that. Anything bigger or more complicated typically has a native package anyway.

I don't know if people use it on desktop but with its minimal size it's convenient as hell for docker images that don't need a lot of dependencies installed
