Assuming that the default is good then yes. But some default DEs are ugly as sin, or just hard to use.

You don’t have to run linux to watch a video about linux.
It’s a good thing you held onto it.
No it doesn’t. Kia just has a sales event that overlaps with gay month.
Don’t forget Truckuary.
What does Ubuntu Pro get you besides extended support after the normal OS EOL?
Every time I see him I can’t believe Tek Syndicate is still around.
can run in a VM, and can run well in a VM are two very different things.
Linux already has bad audio latency without tweaking, running a VM with Windows latency on top of that? Yeah no thanks.
Nvidia or Intel GPU?
How does the vGPU compare to running it on the bare metal? Last I tried things were painful but technically usable.
You can buy .xyz domains from places other than gen.xyz. I have mine from namecheap and I haven’t had any issues in like 10 years with them.
Also some GPUs support running without the external power connectors/not all of them. My old GTX 1080 ran for about 3 months off of just the PCIe slots power because I forgot to plug them in. Newer GPUs are FAR more power hungry though and not all newer cards support that. Plus I’ve never tried yoinking the power cables while it’s on. That can’t be good.
Civ 5 sunk it’s teeth into me deep. I could never stand 6. I only managed about 41 hours into 6, but 5 I have well over a thousand in (even if steam only reports 600 of it)
My 11950H (and all other “full power” Intel mobile CPUs) have a PL1 of >100 watts (109 for mine), and mine a PL2 of 139 watts. This laptop is about an inch thick.
Nothing about this laptop sips power, I’ve gotten as bad as 30 minutes of battery life out of a 90 watt hour battery not playing games.
The lower power 486s didn’t even need a heatsink. The P3 was the first to take a heasink resembling what we have today, but damn did the P4s need some serious cooling.
It’s kinda funny how we think the 100 watts of a desktop P4 was insane when now the TDP of a high end laptop CPU is more than that.
I had one of those, but it was just called putting something on the calculator key.
Try decompiling it.
Computers in 97 didn’t need much in the way of cooling. A large passive heatsink was plenty for those CPUs. They’re not the 300+ watt behemoths we have today.
If I bookmark a link then close out of it I’m far more likely to forget about it. Vs just opening a tab and getting to it when I get to it, or just mass closing tabs every once in a while.
Modern windows actually handles hardware upgrades pretty well. Just make sure you manually install the chipset drivers so it can read your boot drive and windows update will figure out the rest after a reboot or two.
