Fortunately, this fucking windows partition I only keep for VR with my shitty Oculus Rift CV1 reminds me how fucked up the alternative is. I can't fucking wait to get a Steam Frame and ditch it.

Regular gaming on Windows Anno 2024 after a re-install where I spent a sizeable amount of time trying to understand why the fuck it is so hard to just run Windows11 with a local account:
Game is stuttering, dafuq(TM)!? Check privacy settings, all were reversed in the last update that I DID NOT install myself even though I sprung the wallet open for a pro license and deferred updates a week or so prior. Check netlimiter, telemetry collection time at Microsoft(TM) WTF!? Double check "local update sharing" is off, it is, it's likely really telemetry. WTF, Microsoft also enabled copilot by default on my machine?! Uninstall Windows. Spend a year on bazzite on both laptop and desktop. No major issues.
There's a remapping bug with the ROG falchion on linux that reauires a trivial txt file creation and copy to stop the keyboard from sending the PC into sleep mode. Otherwise, peachy.
