I’m sure windows activation will complain, but you should be able to dd your windows partition (or disk) over to the external disk, set up a bootloader (windows can do this, but something like grub or syslinux I know would work to hand off to the windows bootloader)

I don’t know anything about bitlocker stuff, probably needs to be decrypted before this can work.

That’s what I would try, even though it’s not wrapped up in a single tool.

Renoise is sweet as far as trackers go.

Ardour was always my go-to although it’s been crashing on me a lot.

Shout out to BespokeSynth for being amazing, I forgive the crashes because it’s so cool and strongly foss.

Resentment is usually a feeling which has little to do with ethics.

Actions are more easily analyzed for ethical value.

I guess that you’re considering the action of showing resentment by being absent or cold to them.

From a utilitarian perspective this could serve the purpose of communicating your resentment indirectly which may increase the overall good by preventing this scizsm from infiltrating other parts of your life and others. On the other hand this outcome is not guaranteed.

If you apply value ethics of your actions it really depends on what ideals you hold yourself to.

If you take a completely honest person as your ideal, direct communication is probably more ethical than indirect communication, but indirect communication would still be superior to deceiving them into thinking you agree with them in any way.

Instead, you may idealize an honest pacifist who would value indirect communication higher than direct if direct would also come with conflict.

These are my thoughts, I am by no means an expert in ethics.

Totally possible.

I recommend making room on your drive using windows tools to shrink the windows partition before letting your Linux installer add new ones, or doing it manually. This is just so that no weird filesystem bugs show up after resizing your ntfs filesystem with Linux tools. Never had a problem with them but it’s probably good to use Microsoft tools to mess with the Microsoft filesystem just in case.

Lmao any corporate IT department can do this at any time anyways

Eyyy it’s that post I saw a post about being posted

I used to use Gentoo on my laptop, mostly for fun but also because I kept having issues on other distros (Ubuntu mostly) where I wanted to run the latest blender release but my libraries were out of date. On Gentoo I could easily get the most recent builds.

I think you need to start a project, accept it will be slow and painful, and don’t become an expert before you start, just use the skills you have and see where they take you. The only thing that matters in software is that it works. The definition of working changes over time, but get that first working version and you will keep going.

Agreed it sounds like op wants luks. Dare I say if you want bitlocker for Linux, it’s luks.

What did I just read?

Hmm it’s almost like the feds need a union… … … … 👀

Ime you can get a similar feeling fasting, and then again when eating a normal amount after the fast.

Maybe watch your system logs on the server when it’s having trouble, could be something random.

Labor exploitation isn’t vegan. Vegans are doing the best they can, better than me.

Bacon vegans are the most nonsensical

Mostly just try Linux on it 😹 Don’t install it just run from a flash drive or something

Is to kill people

… Run ChromeOS? :P which is basically android. Maybe run Linux if the bootloader is unlockable

😂 time to build your Linux from source!

Aight, almost every time It seems like audio is working but you actually hear nothing, getting alsamixer out and selecting each output channel and making sure it’s unmuted and full volume, on every sound device that shows up ( hit f6 I think to switch device to ) makes a difference. I’ve never figured out why it gets f’d up but I think it has to do with the service that saves and restores alsamixer state during shutdown and startup
