To be honest, it's kind of unbelievable how just in the time of

Linux or death.

 I can only hope that I'll have the same kind of strength for myself. I regretfully often "forget" why it becomes necessary for me to leave Windows. Each time, I tell myself that the unethical behaviour is not as bad as I thought or whatever. In the end, it almost always turns out to be worse than I even imagined. Anyway, I've managed to set up Linux Mint the way I want it to be with asusctl working and my games running as expected. I no longer have access to my Microsoft movie collection, but that's fine. I imagine that it's a matter of time before they make those movies available through the web anyway. If they don't, fine... they're accessible through my Xbox Series S. I won't install an operating system which is most likely spying on everything I do just to have access to a library of movies I never watch.
