I got Win11 in qemu but it was a project and while I have the files I don't
actually use it.

Agreed, when I bought the latest machine I made sure it was all Linux
compatible, then they sold out and offered a free upgrade, which I took and
ended up with an Nvidia GPU, so annoyed but entirely my fault. It works well
enough but I didn't want to support them by buying it.

I actually prefer NVIDIA, even considering that its driver for Linux
is proprietary, although my reasons for that may be outdated.
Originally I didn't need a video card, I had an old 1080p monitor that
was great with the Intel CPU video, but when I got a new 4K monitor I
found the CPU video driver wasn't amazing with it.  NVIDIA offered a
very basic but modern card, not too expensive, ideal for me as a non-
gamer.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
