If there's a Toyota underneath, then this is a better Cybertruck than Tesla's Cybertruck.

By all means. After Apple has painted themselves in a corner, when the legislation has been loophole proofed, that's when Apple gets hit in the face with the Brussels effect - like a big, floppy, dong slapped across Steve Apple's mouth in every country out there.
I'll do a dance for every country. I'll do a shimmy for Botswana, a conga for Japan, a shake for Sebia, etc, etc.
Slap! Other cheek. Slayap! Other cheek! And so on and so forth.
Hopefully.
That's why I always vote for Satan.
Airport techies: next few years? Son, this has to work the next few decades. Now give me a mo, I have to write this DOS batch script.
Is this like the millennial bug? They just forgot to add an extra two digits because they didn't think humans would live that long?
You: "two digits...?"
Life as a head in a jar is a solemn and dignified life.
Figures. Now that Germany pretty much runs the EU, mostly because Spain don't give af and the French - well, they're the French - it makes sense that both Russia and China want a leg up on future policy and military movements. I'm pretty sure the CIA is hiding somewhere there in the fold as well...
Please don't tell me some German duke or something will get assassinated, because I've seen this episode before...
The dumbest out of all the modern "military interventions". Invasions, really.
"Oh no, you can't call it that."
What do I look like, a fucking liberal? A socially conservative liberal even? GTFO here with that, you boot licking normie.
Iraq was bad under Sadam Hussein, but has gotten so much worse post-US invasion, after they installed a bevvy of corrupt collaborative yesmen of course, which has never been bad against any country in history of governance /s
This is probably the best approach. You could pass thru relative USB ports and even a GPU to do things on the Windows VM that you can't do in Wine.
But how does that work? Isn't windows rigged to discover if you're running it in a VM to go "sowwy :( but this is an enterprise feature. Money please~!"
You know, it probably is the time to ask myself: who is the bigger evil? Microsoft or Apple?
I've boycotted Apple products for so long that I can barely remember my white clamshell MacBook... my special little boy T_T I miss it.
But anyways, maybe if I can't find a way to make Windows stop being a little bitch I might have to consider moving to a Mac :(
Unless Ableton ports live and max to Linux, in which case Fedora Atomic go brrrr.
A bit more involved indeed. It's not like I didn't try. The goal was to get it as good or as close to the performance you get in Windows.
Again, if you're just using a mouse and keyboard to compose music, that's okay, but you'll put pressure on the Live engine buffer and most likely suffer dropouts - or buffer overruns - as soon as you add a little bit of processing. Juxtaposed to windows, that well runeth dry real quick.
Realtime MIDI and audio is even harder, because getting midi signals from several USB devices cleanly into wine is not as cut and dry as you'd think. There'd need to be some kind of pass thru on the kernel level to really get some of these MIDI devices working. Perhaps even pass thru of USB audio interfaces might be the ticket. But as is? NGL, kind of limited.. and useless for me :/
Sadness.
EDIT: I was using the TKG version of wine, but this seems slightly better... might have to give it a retry. Good thing I left 200GB empty at the end of my SSD :P
I've just recently moved over to 11, because Windows 10 is going EOL in 2025. I needed to switch at some point anyways, so I might as well get it over with. I'm wondering if consumers can get access to LTSC releases of Windows though. Perhaps some form of enterprise edition, if LTSC editions aren't publicly available.
The problem being of course that I can't move from my precious Ableton Live and I really don't want a MacBook. Before I installed 11 I tried it under wine, using Bazzite no less. Could've gone with a more music centric distribution, but everything points towards it not being stable for live usage - like at all, even with WineASIO. Couldn't get the Push to register, and the buffer was hammered with just a little bit of processing. So, yeah...
My old Windows 10 install was Atlas OS, but now I'm trying Revision OS for 11. It must be doing something right for Windows Defender to quarantine one of it's files. High praise from Caesar indeed. Revision is also a light modification, whereas Atlas OS pretty much nukes all the things - with varying effects and successes. In the end, they are community projects that obviously ruffle Microsoft's feathers. So, yeah...
It's a question of how to make a music workstation by choosing the right windows edition, or how to hack at the system until Microsoft limbs are gimped. Also, I don't think I'll need a printer spool. In any case, it's a pain in my arse that I now also have to find a way to nuke Copilot. That will surely just wreck my buffer absolutely. "But you could use it for music creation"... what's the fun in that?
In any case, please list your favourite key reseller sites. I might need to go shopping for something special, and Pro might not cut it.
Public-private key signing, using up to date cryptography. That's it. It's also "quantum safe", because all cryptography used by the public goes through peer review processes.
Microsoft as well as Meta have contracted Whisper Systems, but there's no way of guaranteeing that the signing process is functionally working or if it's been broken. If it's run server side, you have no clue. If it's run client side, there's still a question if the process hasn't been tampered with in some way.
Remember: there is no such thing as cryptography with a backdoor. At that point, it's just a secrets system.
