@schratze lmao it's funny cause I'm playing Assassin's Creed II on the Steam Deck and this game does that

@fries @schratze huh, surprisingly enough it doesn't seem like anyone has tried to put Windows 7 on a Steam Deck, or at least nobody's posted about it anywhere the search engines I tried have indexed

@Stoori @schratze

- Your computer is not compatible with Windows 11
- Install Linux
- Run game on Proton
- Exit to Windows
- Computer is now running Windows 11

@schratze no, it's in the environment that paints windows - X11.

@schratze free windows license, put Microsoft out of business with this one weird trick!

who the hell is duc? :enbyfied: :verifiedcat:

@schratze@todon.nl maybe it won't exit to windows (it might just replace your drivers with not working ones)

@schratze And you gotta activate it again if you swap out the SD card too often.

@schratze

@schratze

- Play Doom on LF OS :lf_os:
- Hit exit game
- Ignore how it insults the OS as being DOS
- hit exit to DOS
- Blue screen - your LF OS kernel is really old and does not have an idle task yet

@schratze guess what installing game is way faster than windows so its a valid hack for install windows any% speedrun ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
