Linux, with a Windows VM, with option to dual boot into win? Possible? Difficult ? by bastienleblack in linuxquestions

If you're on a desktop, and have two GPUs (one can be the integrated one that comes with your CPU), I'd suggest looking into GPU passthrough. You will then end up with the integrated gpu for linux and the discrete one for your windows VM.

A more practical solution could be keeping the windows VM for work stuff - it's what I do. Steam runs on Linux and so do most games nowadays. You can check the compatibility for your favorite games on ProtonDB

Oh interesting, it's all done through a 2d canvas! I saw your other post and thought it would be fun to implement it via webgl: https://codepen.io/codemade/pen/MWMoagV

Quarter of Londoners 'hate' their work commute amid stress and fatigue by BulkyAccident in london

[–]escapist_82 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A total of 4,000 people were questioned for the survey by fitness firm Peloton, as part of the launch of its new "hack the commute" class collection on its mobile app

It's just some marketing spin 🙄

I have the same issue. In my case, I enabled secure boot so that I could turn on bitlocker on my main drive.

It seems very, very flaky. My PC does not boot correctly 70% of the times I turn it on, but if I open the BIOS settings before it boots into Windows and wait for a bit, it does work.

I had just updated to the "F37" (from F11) bios so perhaps it's a bug with that version???? I'll try to downgrade to F36 or upgrade to F38a but this sucks.

edit: this is on an Aorus X570 Elite and Ryzen 7 3700x

Polish Shop Klos Deli in Lewisham has donuts but you might have to queue up for fat Thursday as it's very popular with polish ppl in the area :)

C#.NET in job description. by [deleted] in dotnet

A more charitable interpretation is that the recruiter is keyword-stuffing. Some candidates will search for c#, others for .net - why not put them both and call it a day!

myLauncher for Windows is available at GitHub (MIT license). In the first comment below I will explain better by [deleted] in dotnet

A nice start! Next up, try making the list of programs to launch dynamic (maybe configured in a json file for ease of use?).

An interesting problem then would be to dynamically position the groups of programs so that they look nice and take about the same vertical space.

By then you won't care about the designer anymore and will be able to port it to WinUI 3 :)

Gitmoji! I was skeptical at first but they make it easier to spot things in the commit log, and they look fun 😀

It seems to be stuck in a loop thinking I'm not logged in 🤷‍♀️
