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.

Windows 11 inherently does not support my CPU because of their fake secure boot requirement. You have to have UEFI.
Rufus USB can take care of that for you
I'm too scared to install it just for it to decide to stop working in the future.
It just removes the pre check I think. After that you’re good just as normal
Sure, but if they ever tweak the check the wrong way, you're right back to hosed
I can't really imagine them checking once it is installed but who fucking knows lol.
