      At least issues with the “work PC” are generally paid.

      I hate dealing with Windows issues in my time for free.

        i got my dad to let me install Linux on his PC aswell. I told him that i will not come over to fix his windows install ever again but i would be happy to teach him how to use linux. He is very happy on Linux Mint for the last 2 years now aswell

        u mean starting a linux vm on my work pc? that’s not possible. Workplace services shut those things down completely. Can’t install or run anything not blessed by the pope himself.

                    There is no way for me to use Linux on my work pc. We use MSTSC and MSRA for supporting, most of my work takes place on a windows server aswell and the other part of my work is just browser based.

                    I don’t gain anything by forcing linux on that machine besides headache and probably some calls that go like “What the fuck dude?! Why are you using Linux on your machine?”
