Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@alexdefoc6919 says : A better alternative to Oracle VM is QEMU or KVM because it goes right to the kernel getting more performnace!>> <<@charliemccraney says : When using Wine on a dual drive, dual boot Windows / Linux system, will Wine write to the C: drive or does it keep everything on the Linux drive and file system? An in depth and current wine tutorial would be great, installing and uninstalling, configuration, etc. Right click no longer has Open with Wine... as an option.>> <<@PhilippeDHooghe says : Is there any specific reason why you advise VirtualBox, a type 2 Hypervisor? May there be less issues with I/O using a Type 1 Hypervisor? And why not the Linux built-in KVM?>> <<@MSThalamus-gj9oi says : I love that storage has become so cheap, fast, and small. I've used the Drive Swap Dual Boot method for over a decade, via an IcyDock four bay enclosure. It's really cool to use SSDs now much in the way I used floppies in the 80s. :)>> <<@MikeBob2023 says : Thank you, Mr. Barnatt. 🙏🏼 I'm thrilled to know that all those options exist, and very impressed by Linux' flexibility in particular. I have it in mind to maintain separate, dedicated Windows and Linux platforms (I have desk space for each, and more than enough components lying around to build the latter), but the ability to set up *virtual machines* in Linux is simply brilliant. Quite a 'Nice to Have' option in case I ever need it. _On to the next video!_ 👍🏼>> <<@anujmeena says : ❤❤❤>> <<@seppmaler8434 says : By far the easiest to understand and to follow way of using WINE! Thanks a million.>> <<@mihailvormittag6211 says : 👍>> <<@masoudfasihi4342 says : Will never jump to linux until all windows apps run natively>> <<@practicalplinking6133 says : This is EXACTLY what I need !! AND I understand it !!>> <<@eds5977 says : Thanks man. Very helpful>> <<@ShadowPriestBear says : Excelent work as always!>> <<@richardjennings4699 says : Rightly or wrongly, I don't trust MS with my data. I use Windows 10 for Word, Excel and Powerpoint and I have quite an investment in a Word macro package for quickly creating professional looking documents. I use Linux for all my other computing needs. What I would like to do is setup a Windows 10 box in VirtualBox as a kind of sandbox. No telemetry, no updates, no way in for MS. Is this possible?>> <<@jenserikbech says : If you install "Refind" in your Linux version, you have solved your problems with the corruption of the boot loader. And it is magnificent visually.>> <<@happyputt9709 says : Who can? The computer man can!>> <<@rockymarquiss8327 says : Couldn't you use QEMU'KVM (among others) as a virtual machine?>> <<@MrBobWareham says : Thank you for the video, very informative and helpful for Linux Mint, I think a lot of people will have to change to Linux due to Microsoft corporate greed, or like me that started with Dos 6 many years ago. I am lucky as my Lenovo T430 has two drives, so I can dual boot W10 or Linux Mint, but I am finding myself in LM most of the time and transferred my pictures and documents across to LM.>> <<@admiralcarrot756 says : This video alone is enough to convince some of my friends to try learn Linux, very detailed and informative!>> <<@stevemarshall5249 says : Thanks for this, another informative and useful video. But I'm somewhat surprised that you do not even mention the QEMU/KVM path to virtual machines on Linux. As you undoubtedly know, this support is built into the Linux kernel and (I believe) has some performance advantages over the VirtualBox solution. I've tried both, and good old Windows 7 certainly does seem to run a bit faster under KVM than it did under VirtualBox. That's just a perception though, not based on running any benchmarks or anything.>> <<@robo8852 says : Revisiting some of your videos as I try to bring a truly ancient laptop back to life! Many thanks as always.>> <<@Myrulv says : That is why I do not use dual boot. ;)>> <<@brentsummers7377 says : In my limited experience with Wine I'd say older & very simple programs seem to work best. I am not a gamer so can't comment about games. More complicated programs may seem to work perfectly initially then something will break & they are not worth bothering with. However, give each program a try & see what happens because I have had some nice surprises with Wine. It is worth the trial and error because often the linux equivalents are ugly & poor quality.>> <<@DataSmithy says : I guess I am wondering how you manage your Windows license when you run windows virtually. I would think at some point, Windows would complain about not having a valid license. What is this point? When do you actually need to purchase a Windows license?>> <<@burgermeister7244 says : Chris, Do you need licenses to install those virtual Windows machines? Joe>> <<@sameerk12982 says : Thank you for the video Sir.... I am using winehq on Zorin Core OS and it's working perfectly fine... I have successfully installed Call of duty World at War and NFS Most wanted games and they are running smoothly.... Zorin OS is working better than ubuntu in terms of running games. Zorin Core OS if free. Use WPS office which is close to MS Office in terms of basic functions and layout.>> <<@briccimn says : Grazie.>> <<@briccimn says : Thank you very much for the hint on how to bypass W11's TPM check!!!>> <<@richardnelson1684 says : Wanted to find a previous video that described file transfers between Linux and Windows machines using Warpinator. I failed. Couldn't find any video links to it on your website either. A sortable page of links or a downloadable spreadsheet would be real handy, but then that's more work for you. I love your presentations and am having fun with Raspberry Pi's and Linux Mint. THANKS!>> <<@rudiansyahsyah9738 says : classroom speak LINUX commonecation window software theory end practice speak english in MENU quality utility basic symbol year 2022 / 2023 school computer index presentasi 🏛🌍🌎🌏>> <<@rudiansyahsyah9738 says : classroom window software commonecation theory end practice speak quality utility in the operating system microsoft hardware software basic symbol PC sys data com master year 2022 / 2023 🏛🌍🌎🌏🏛🏫🏬🏭🏯💒🏩🏨🏧🏦🏥🏤🏣>> <<@rudiansyahsyah9738 says : classroom speak year 2022 / 2023 quality basic simbol room 🏛🌍🌎🌏🏪🏫🏬🏭🏯🏰💒🏩🏰🏧🏦🏥>> <<@miss_gray says : The advice to try out open source programs on windows before switching is so good and now I wonder why I never thought of getting people to do that before!>> <<@tubeDude48 says : As a Linux user since 2000, this has some very useful information- especially for Newbie's. But VirtualBox is not for the faint at heart!>> <<@nicholasroberts6954 says : These briefing type "Overviews" of current (And near future) possibilities are just-the-job for those who haven't got the time or inclination to be fully immersed - the alternative is wading through masses of marketing sponsored "punt" articles. I would echo your comments about dual booting in particular relation to the use of Bitlocker with Windows. You have to be very careful with the use of Bitlocker, which IMHO is still not a fully robust technology when used in the dual boot environment, even when you're only dual booting two different versions of Windows>> <<@shiningstar5815 says : I am not an computer pro. But somehow if we fix installing .exe in Linux natively. That's what could make world upside down.>> <<@weseehowcommiegoogleis3770 says : I've tried a few times, and it looks like I'm keeping a windows computer around. Some things just DON'T work within linux.>> <<@03urukhai76 says : There is this thing called Bottles. It does the same thing which Wine does but it's easier to use. Please make a detailed guide for bottles.>> <<@alm77ar says : Big Like, Thanks>> <<@CharlesCollins says : thanks Chris for this series. I have migrated to Linux Mint and am enjoying the experience so far. I am using Boxes as my VM to use Windows 10 as VMWare didn't work well on my Asus laptop for some reason.>> <<@mikey10006 says : What about bottles>> <<@lse123polis says : How did you edit this YouTube video?>> <<@bertosudu9506 says : 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍>> <<@nathan22211 says : what about quickemu, from what I understand it uses qemu and sets up a win11 VM automatically. On top of that, qemu can be hardware accelerated and is more performant>> <<@ralphups7782 says : thank you master. :-)>> <<@Tome4kkkk says : Oh my sweet IrfianView screenshot capture feature... :( I haven't found an equally simple and blazing fast alternative (with direct to custom name pattern saving) to that gem.>> <<@ryanzmuda3167 says : Can wine run on the new M1s>> <<@eljuano28 says : -- As little Microsoft as possible, but better that than Google anything. -- For a future episode, dear Chris, it may be helpful to do a Linux distro lineage overview. One of the nice things about the plethora of distributions is that while one over another may be better tailored to one's particular preferred use, distro branches are often able to grab things from their legacy distro's repository without compatibility problems.>> <<@feersided says : After watching and reading some of the other operating systems out there, I just really want to learn more about them, and these videos are doing an amazing job at it.>> <<@Scarter63 says : Just found your channel. You do good work. I'm gonna subscribe.>> <<@bertnijhof5413 says : I give the Virtual Machines always all CPU Cores and threads, since I see no advantage in slowing down the VM artificially. The Linux scheduler is perfectly capable of handling all VM processes of all VMs and all Host OS processes at the same time effectively.>>
