I did that last Christmas but the very next day, it gave it away. This year, to keep me from tears I'll deditate it to something special.

Well maybe once I get a job in tech (I graduate at the end of november) I could justify spending the time... it will give me a better understanding of computers after all.

I'd love to do this someday but I really don't have the time to experiment at the moment. I need something that allows me to be lazy so I can just work on things.

I sent a tarball of ~~downloaded movies~~ linux iso's around once and my family thought I'd been hacked.

Pop sounds very handy with nvidia pcs

I tried Nobara once and it doesn't play nicely with my computers secure boot. It didn't recognise it as a valid boot disk. I never got further than that since every other distro allowed me to boot. OpenSUSE would be a good one to try, I appreciate it's a stable rolling release! It almost sounds perfect!

I'll definitely give Mint a go! I'll give pop os a try as well since they have their new DE coming soon.

Edit: spelling

X11 doesn't limit it, but you will want to enable "Force composition pipeline" to prevent screen tearing. nvidia and Wayland work together btw. It's not a match made in heaven but they do work.

Best advice I ever got regarding Windows: delay updates for a few days. Sometimes Windows updates break the device, but if you're part of the crowd that delays for a day or two, they might have fixed the issue by then.
