It may not work. I have two ssds like that and they both won’t boot ventoy for some reason, but a hdd in a usb case worked no problem.

Also, unless you’re using the usb3 interface it doesn’t make much difference really.

Hey. I didn’t come here to be attacked, pal.

I know and I still have high hopes, but it’s still behind. Back then BeOS was what I used exclusively, these days it would need to have a version of KVM to run virtual machines to make up for what’s needed and isn’t there.

if someone came out with something brand new that wasn’t Linux or MacOS or Windows and it was a better tool than all of them

RIP BeOS

I didn’t see anywhere about it being able to install/restore system images, I’m assuming it can do that given what it’s based on though.

I’m referring to certain people. I’ve transitioned people over and help them out with it, like my dad for instance who I have no expectations that he’d learn what a dotfile even is much less troubleshoot a problem.

What you should have done if you’re unwilling to nuke Windows, which you clearly are, was to swap out your boot drive and install Linux directly. Any drive will do for that purpose. You didn’t try Linux, not really. You used some apps that run it.

They didn’t want to constantly rely on me to fix every little thing they break instead of learning how to do it themselves.

No wait, that was my reason for not switching them. 😆

That might be a good thing for all the gen alphas who can’t read a clock. There are a lot of them.

They’ve got nothing on that hacker at 127.0.0.1 that fucker has all my files!

Make a keychain out of it.

I’ve never seen that. 🤷

TIL KDE is a distro and not a DE. 🙄

One thing that I did when distro hopping was to have /home be separate like you have, but I would back it up elsewhere and let it be a clean start which I could bring over what I wanted from the backup.

It was easier than hunting down which dotfile the new distro didn’t like.

Using apps by popularity instead of on their actual usefulness is pretty wild.

Yes it can.

Imagine the red side in the context of an expensive restaurant.
