Windows 10 has fairly good WSL support for Linux running as a virtual machine in Windows. We use it with Ubuntu for ARM code development.

Biden Campaign: Biden ‘Believes in What These Protesters Are Saying’ and Doesn’t Accept Violence, Antisemitism

Ian Hanchett 4 May 2024

On Saturday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The Weekend,” Biden 2024 Principal Deputy Campaign Manager Quentin Fulks stated that President Joe Biden will not accept violence or antisemitism and “believes in what these protesters are saying and he is working to bring peace to the Middle East and bring the situation to a close.”

Fulks said, “[W]hen it comes to this issue, I think it’s important to call out that the President has said, as you said, that he believes in the right for peaceful protest, but that political violence, antisemitism [are] not going to be accepted. The other piece here is that the President believes in what these protesters are saying and he is working to bring peace to the Middle East and bring the situation to a close. And so, we’re going to continue to do that. We know that this issue is a very sensitive issue for a lot of people around the country, and we’re going to be respectful to that and tell them that they have the right to peacefully protest and that we respect their right to protest. But this is an issue that we are going to continue to let play out. The President is working diligently, every day, to bring it to a close, and we’re going to continue to communicate with voters about issues and build out a campaign apparatus that is drawing the stakes of this election and exactly what Donald Trump has done and the dangers that he’s posing to bring into a second term.”

I know that Secure Boot in UEFI can be problematic for Linux.  Are there new trix in UEFI for Win11 that need to be disabled?

I don't remember, and any info I might provide would certainly be stale.

IIRC, The same things that you have to do to get Win11 run on older machines is the same thing you have to do to achieve dual-boot. Now, I would install Win first, on it's own physical drive, then Mint on it's own physical drive, with the Mint drive as primary and dual boot out of grub in the final config.... Never got win11 to see the Linux drive.

I achieved that with win11 too, but the FUD at the time was that win11 will not accept updates in that state - I assumed that to be FUD, because it was updating fine running bandit on old processors. But the FUD was eternal (undenied) and I got itchy about that... And I hated living in Win11, so I eventually went back to Win10. I am still not sure if setting up a bandit win11 causes actual updating and security issues.

Full disclaimer: This is a Windows house btw. I love Linux - Particularly BSD/Ubuntu/Mint, but I have to stay up to date on the tech side, and that means Windows and MS Office I currently have no standing Linux installations, and only my two test bench boxes dual-boot... Both of those are Win10/Mint.

What we need to do with cows who fart methane is eat them. Voila, problem solved.

   I agree @LMAO but Trump is selling re-runs.  He campaigned on this $hit 8 years ago and he was in charge half that time.  Obviously, I can't give him the benefit of the doubt here.

Agree

He is running on a deportation platform that he promised back in 2016

But Biden’s bumbling and bleep ups have now ushered in a migrant crisis. It was candidate Biden that said he would encourage migrants to “surge the border”

Trump should be asking why Ted Kennedy didn't get charged by a New York DA when he gave a payout to the Kopechne family.

Exactly.  I can understand putting down a dog for killing chickens when growing up in farm country. My dad put down a dog for doing the same, though he didn't shoot it.   But recording it in a book that you were hoping would launch your national political career was stupid beyond belief.     Did her editor or proof readers, maybe even family and friends reading the pre-published transcript not say, " wait honey, ya better not put that in the book".

Agreed, and as one would expect, she's lost any chance for a higher office.

I like Youngkin.

That would be a 26-vote swing for the GOP to land Virginia.
