I recently created a HD for dual boot Win 11 and Pop Os. I created a shared partition for Data, and separate partitions for the respective OS. I used gParted to create the partitions. It looks like Win then added bitlocker to this data partition....
I assume you want disk encryption on Windows which is why you haven’t turned off bitlocker and disabled it in BIOS. I’m not familiar with whole disk encryption on Windows but Linux has many options.
If you’re going to dual boot I would recommend a separate boot partition for GRUB/boot manager that points to the windows boot partition because Windows likes to mess up a shared boot partition.
Kagi.com is one of the best services I pay for. I know paying for Internet search seems outrageous because we’ve been accustom to our data being the payment, but I think it’s worth it. The search feature and added stuff really make it very functional plus the no adds or SEO type sites is bonus.
I do. Did you find better results on Google? I’ve used DDG, yandex, qwant, and brave search engine but I really like the add free results and I understand something has to pay for the servers.
I recently made a post discussing my move to Linux on Fedora, and it’s been going great. But today I think I have now become truly part of this community. I ran a command that borked my bootloader and had to do a fresh install. Learned my lesson with modifying the bootloader without first doing thorough investigation lol....
I’ve messed up my system so many times over the years that now I think I secretly get excited when it accidentally happens. Maybe I’m a masochist, but I actually enjoy trying to understand what went wrong. A USB stick with a light weight Linux distro and chroot you can usually get back in there and look around at the damage.
I only tried a tiling WM for a few days several years ago. I am ok using the terminal but not everything can be done easily there. In the screenshots of people setups, there are always fancy terminals. Are tiling WM good also for other GUI a part from terminals?
Looks like my favorite torrent-site is shutting down in not too long. It’s an invite-only site that I’ve been using for well over a decade, so I’m a bit at a loss as to where to go. Any suggestions? I mainly use it for tv shows and movies....
Found this Google docs PDF that’s a pretty good read on it. Keep in mind it’s 5yrs old so some of the recommended indexers and services might have gone off line, but the general info is still true.

Good morning, English isn’t my first language and it happens quie often that I need to select a good chunk of text to translate it with DeepL, why, in often cases, is impossible but select the title of an article that Lemmy’s bot has summarised?

There’s a pretty good video on YouTube that details it’s failure. The Russians also had something similar and I think they where more successful at it. youtu.be/pW0eZRoQ86g?si=4JCqtCmS1mMLDOve
I bounce around a lot, mainly between Qtile and Awesome WM because I like how it handles multiple monitors. You should check it out, there’s loads of premade configs on GitHub.
I think you brought up a good point in that Microsoft conditions people to expect a certain behavior from their PC. Some of that is ease of use at there expense of privacy, forced unavoidable updates, and individual software solutions that handles their respective updates.

As a normal, boring user that does nothing special other than browse the internet and the occasional "casual coding" -- what am I supposed to do with 32GiB of ram?
Title. Besides setting tmpfs to use 10GiB of it to store downloads.
Where to now?
