Microsoft’s foray into the handheld gaming PC market, previously considered the exclusive terrain of companies like Valve, is gaining momentum with the introduction of the ROG Xbox Ally by Asus. This device represents more than just new hardware: it signals Microsoft’s growing acknowledgment of...
For anyone running a Linux-Windows dual boot setup, it quickly becomes evident that sharing files seamlessly between the two operating systems is an unexpected challenge. At first blush, it seems almost counterintuitive—for two OSes running on the same hardware, sharing RAM, CPU, and GPU...

So you’re fed up with Windows. Maybe you’re tired of Windows 11’s infamous 24H2 update saga, or perhaps the seduction of open source and full system control whispers too sweetly for you to ignore. The grass looks greener on the Linux side—free, customizable, with perceived safety from the...
