I changed my main machine over to Linux in the beginning of April, setting it up on its own NVMe so I could keep my other drive with Windows 10 intact and dual boot when needed.

I’ve been having a blast - ricing hyprland, better workflows, great gaming experiences.

Then yesterday I realized that I hadn’t actually bothered to dual boot once since testing out the Windows entry in my systemd-boot menu when I first set it up.

Guess who just gained a 1TB drive to install more games?

I wiped out the Windows drive with no remorse. Damn, that felt good.

Goodbye Windows, you won’t be missed.

    Most of the time a VM suffice. But when it comes to authenticating programs like that bootloader unlocker, I usually run into problems. Instead of trying to fix its problems, I find this solution easier. It’s a 120 GB SSD I wouldn’t possibly use otherwise anyway, so no hurt.
