So I did a thing...
I'm officially starting the process of migrating to Linux.
I just installed Pop!_OS on a smaller SSD in my home PC, so I can now dual-boot between Windows 10 and Linux. Since my old X99 system can't officially upgrade to Windows 11, it seemed like the right time to finally dive in and learn Linux properly.
What's funny is that, despite being about 12 years old, this machine is still the most powerful computer I have access to for many workloads—even outperforming my brand-new office PC in several areas. It has aged remarkably well.
I'm not abandoning Windows overnight, but from here on out I'll be spending more time on the Linux side, learning the ecosystem, experimenting, and seeing where it makes sense. Should be a fun adventure.
