Nice FOSS activism (no /s) but I prefer the freedom of being able to use a full range of software and do full range of tasks as and how I need. I treat OSes like tools, not like religion cults, adopted Linux as primary with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, now on Debian Stable and have W10 on SSD. I daily Debian like a champ but sometimes boot into Windows for the occasional need and game, to keep things functional and workflow free of friction.
The best way to shutdown your windows computer is to install Linux.
That’s exactly what I’ve gone and done.
Needless to say I’ve not been woken up @2-4am when the PC powers itself up and sends the fans to infinity/turning all the lights on.
Fuck windows to the moon, now I just gotta figure out why steam only launches stuff 50% of the time.

I even have a very nice Linux/Windows guide for perspective https://lemmy.ml/post/511377
Me too. And by having Linux in my primary boot, I mostly guarantee windows can’t wake itself up after I shut it down. :D
I had the same idea while I was setting up my dual-boot.
