if you're trying to hide your completely-legal-and-mundane stuff from somebody, isn't this still kinda bad
like, the ojos cincos can backdoor your computer right? Even if you're running linux off a USB, all that stuff is still going through your ISP and your storage drives which are attached to your mobo which has had windows on it at one point
this reminds me of the horrors that were modding minecraft (or any other game) before modding guis for popular games became ubiquitous. my walking to school uphill both ways was having to learn YAML to modify minecraft server mod configs.
I installed the FTL Multiverse mod recently, and it was literally harder than switching a computer to Linux.
shit i've never attempted: running Linux
shit i've attempted and made me realise installing linux probably isn't that bad: modding New Vegas to the point it actually looks good
The most common distros have a Live USB mode where you can run Linux without actually installing it, if you're curious to see what it's like.
Generally the real thing is faster and has better hardware support, but it's close enough.
oh yeah, i guess i did dabble with Tails for totally legal reasons and that was entirely boot from USB

It's wild how insecure crypto is. Once people know your wallet's ID it's fucking game over

Modding KSP back in 2016-18 was far worse because the game takes 15 minutes to load on a HDD.
Rimworld used to take like 15-20 minutes to load, I would usually go make lunch while I waited.

I've spent a lot of time setting up mods for games and getting everything to play nice with the other 200 carefully curated and deliberated on mods.
Ah, an Arch user.
This one is just like... install game, downgrade game, install binary mod, get mod loader, install primary mod into mod loader.
(For the scared lurkers, Linux is generally: download distro and flash drive flasher, apply distro to flash drive, reboot, follow installer)
