It’s like I get daily reminders to finish moving files off my laptop, so I can wipe Windows and install Linux.

Good thing I haven't booted into windows for some weeks. Might as well just delete it and free up some more space for po.. games. For games.

I think you should use the space for potato. Liquid potato also good for cooling pc

I recently tried to convert a 2-yo Lenovo running Windows-11 to dual-boot. Gave up after three days and just went with Ubuntu. It shouldn't be this hard.

I recently installed Linux on some old PCs. They had Windows 10 and wouldn't install 11. Glad I didn't go for dual boot!

How many times is it now? It's gotta be in the triple digits

One time that happened to me so I just didn't boot into windows for a few months and then just decided to rm it

I was wondering last night where Ubuntu was on my gf's living room gaming rig. I can't recall uninstalling it, but the boot menu was only listing Windows. Will have to live boot Ubuntu and have a look at Gparted to see if the ext4 partition is still there.

Been using Linux since the early 2000's and I've dual booted a few times, but mostly had Linux as my main os for this time. This has happened so many times to me, the last time like 4 years ago, I just will live without the software that doesn't work in wine...
