I second this, OP, this is pretty much the state of it, but I do recommend trying out a Linux program called Wine, it can run some windows programs in your Linux environment. It’s not always the best, but I run a circuit making program there and I only had a bit of issue once. I just wanted to mention wine since some stuff works well with it, but now I’m realizing a VM might be better if it’s multiple programs lol. Oh well.
Kind of a random question, but what is a good way to wear good boots like those as a civilian? I mean fashion-wise. I want to change my wardrobe up and I have stuff like boots and a trench coat that I’ve never been able to figure out what to wear it with.
