From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

a retail license doesn't even prompt that, just sign in with your MS account and bobs your uncle, that's how I manage all of my VM stuff I just sign into my primary Microsoft account and it automatically activates, I'm sure one of these days it's going to hit a Hidden activation limit but I'm not really sure how Windows works with that, I don't change vm's all that often.
My main bottleneck for swapping fully off of dual booting is the annoyance when it comes to trying to configure GPU pass through with KVm, I would definitely be using that virtual machine for gaming on the few games that no longer work using proton but like it's such a pain in the butt to set up
