Windows doesn't let you do that. When you open Windows, it decides if it wants to install updates. There are plenty of ways to try to convince it to not do that, but they're all hacky workarounds. (This is one of the reasons I switched away from Windows in the first place. I want to decide my update schedule- not Microsoft.)

I basically want to schedule the Windows updates from Linux. Windows won't run until Linux tells it to.

Not working for me unfortunately :( Pop! OS. It'll start an run a few minutes if I use GE 27, but won't launch at all with Proton Experimental Bleeding Edge or Hotfix.

Edit: Nevermind, had a permissions issue. Deleting the compatdata folder and making sure I was the owner for everything, THEN switching to Proton Bleeding Edge fixed it.

Try Ponoko or SendCutSend (assuming you're in the US). They're very affordable and have done excellent work for me in the past, and they're within the US so no overseas shipping delays/costs/etc.

To slap some math on here- locally, the cheapest heat pump water heater I found was $1,279. The cheapest standard one is $399. Both are 40 gallons. The heat pump one claims "up to $375 a year in savings". If that's accurate, the payoff time is under 3 years, which is pretty great. Also, I think there are some rebates you can get in some areas that make the payoff even shorter.

Hey, any chance you could share your .desktop file? I'm apparently missing something in mine- it launches, but I can't get the icon to show up as the Bambu Studio image. Sorry, total noob :(

Any tips on setting that up? I tried with a 4070 Super and it's incredibly slow. Granted, I am running an actual Windows install (that I can boot directly into). Perhaps that's the issue? Anyway... if it works, and I can just make a new only-VM install with GPU passthrough then that might work for me.

Yep!

Sorry, sent you the wrong link earlier. here's the right one: https://www.reddit.com/r/hardwareswap/comments/1hp4ilz/usatn_h_i56600k_asus_z170ar_mobo_gskill_ddr4_16g/

Prices are in the post along with pics, but I'm asking $130 for the 1080 with an AIO and bracket. Prices are all OBO.

Never got a PM from you?

I have some of the stuff you're looking for here- https://www.reddit.com/r/hardwareswap/comments/1hp4ilz/usatn_h_i56600k_asus_z170ar_mobo_gskill_ddr4_16g/

Edit: fixed link

I have a 1080 and RAM here- https://www.reddit.com/r/hardwareswap/comments/1hp4ilz/usatn_h_i56600k_asus_z170ar_mobo_gskill_ddr4_16g/

Lmk if you're interested

EDIT: Posted the wrong link sorry, it's fixed.

Hey, I know this is an old post, but I've got the same general setup going on. I had a Windows 11 SSD that was running great, and I am to the point of booting Windows 11 within QEMU/KVM, but it runs VERY slowly. Any tips on speeding things up?

It's been a while since I used /r/hardwareswap so apologies if I've missed a timestamp or got some formatting wrong!

Hey, if you wind up finding out if they're getting rid of the physical machines, I'd love to get one.

Any fix for this? Mine's locking up too.

They make wifi enabled door locks. I'd just buy one of those and use them, they're not super expensive. (They also have them in Zigbee or Zwave if you have a network already)

Does the new FEP have a protective film on it?

Hey, I'm seeing this too- you ever figure out a fix?

Depends on the mil spec.

Think about it more like the "aerospace grade" and "military grade" standards are circles with a lot of overlap, with "aerospace grade" sitting mostly inside "military grade". A fighter jet has much tighter controls than a military jeep, for example. Both are "military grade". The phrase by itself doesn't mean anything.

"Military grade" just means they have a grade for it. You have to get more specific, "military grade for airplanes" or "military grade for sandwiches". It's a meaningless term by itself. Some military standards are crazy high and have absolutely incredible requirements. Some are not so much. Many of the standards are available online, and lots of them have enormous sections that say "Here's how to tweak this standard to your specific target application".
