Well... that's interesting.
I tried to install Steam (worked, but couldn't launch any games), and now my CPU hits 20-30% from moving my mouse.
So yeah. Looks like tomorrow will be linux-installation time. Yay.
... Well that's inconvenient.
Also. Did I at any point remember to make a copy of my ublock-filters? Of course not. That'd be silly.
Reinstalled linux, and this time very much added the "third party"-addons. Very carefully installed XIVLauncher immediately (bcs if it didn't work I wanted to know before I edited everything else to my preferences).
And... it worked. No issues at all.
So now I've also gone around and started tweaking the linux-installation to actually be nice. Tomorrow we might actually sit down and try a bit more to get the android-emulator to work over on the windows-partition. But right now? Definitely not touching that mess.

Yesterday I spent the entire day (and way too much of the night) messing around with virtual-machines and trying to get the android-emulator to work. No dice.
Today, I've instead created a Win10 partition and... also failed to get the android-emulator to work. Not good.
But in doing so I obviously had to reinstall linux too, so now I'm dealing with that mess. Which apparently includes FFXIV lagging to shit (likely because I forgot that I really did need nvidia-drivers during the installation), so now I'm trying to track down how to fix this fucking mess. Which is fun. Not.
Ah. Hmm...
So, it turns out that a new school-assignment requires us to run an android-emulator alongside Visual-Studio.
The problem? I'm using a virtual-machine to run Visual-Studio, meaning that it becomes a "nestled emulator" and that causes all kinds of whack shit to happen.
(Specifically, it seems to be unable to find my graphic-card? For some reason? And then it just insta-crashes. Fun times.)
Huh.
A while back, I solved my "need to use Visual Studio on linux"-problem by installing Win10 on a USB.
Basically, this worked by letting me reboot the computer from the USB, and it was an amazing improvement over "yeah no this shit doesn't even work" (buying a Win11 laptop).
However, it still required me to restart the computer and it came with some awkward caveats (it's not exactly a big USB-stick, and upgrading to a bigger one might make it harder for the computer to accept it as a start-up option).
Now, waaaay back in the day, I installed a Virtual Machine of Win10 on the computer. This was always a very shitty thing, because it was so slow and awkward that even shit like notepad lagged to fuck.
That said, it still worked, and it let me run a few convenient programs. So I kept it around. (Also, vaguely scared of uninstalling it, because getting it to work in the first place was a nightmare.)
Yesterday, I ended up realizing that this VM has 2gb of RAM. As in, barely enough to classify as a computer.
Today, I poked at the settings, and managed to crank that up to 8gb of RAM. And... it doesn't seem to lag as much? Like. It's not fast. But I can run VS and it's not insanely deliberating?
Which could imply that if I crank the RAM-setting even higher? I might be able to just... casually have access to VS on my linux-system? Without any weird caveats attached?
