Looks like this will finally lead to the Year of the Linux Desktop.

I think the point is that even though one could do all the hacks required to disable the hardware checks that Windows 11 unnecessarily imposes, subsequent updates and re-patching tend to be painful for end users.

I think that Linux w/ LTS for the next few years may be the sane option for the next decade.

For most people, beyond that timeframe - there may not exist a dedicated gaming PC at all if the purpose is to play games or even get basic productivity work done.

For people like me, I will always embrace the openness and upgradability of a PC though.
