I find this mildly infuriating, I only use Windows for work, I even personally purchased Windows 11. Local account and disabled as much as I could. I personally do not like Windows or Windows in general.

Well, now I do an update and they throw this up like I need to walk thru these steps (again). Not even a “Skip”/“Don’t remind me again”. Windows is not what it used to be and after disabling half the Microsoft stuff I’d expect not to be bothered again. It’s really a built in ad more then anything.

    My 3080 mobile didn’t work with anything but arch.

    I love Linux but even I get fed up with it a lot. I do think that 90% of games work now though.

    Everything driver related except my graphics cards have been great.

    Just saying though, Linux isn’t a drag and drop replacement, but it’s still good

      interesting. I wonder whether that’s specific to the mobile hardware. I have a 3080 running just fine on Mint.

        It was specifically a problem with the razer blade I had. I can’t remember the exact issue but Arch had the fix in their kernel or something and ubuntu didn’t

        I think it was specifically an issue with hybrid graphics with an amd cpu

      I’ll agree that Nvidia really needs to get their shit together, but it DOES work
