  • Well my comment was with heavy hyperbole simply to point out an obvious bias, not to disprove your point.

    Imo, I agree blatant racism is on the rise. I assume it has to do with people being terminally online these days, and websites like Twitter no longer censoring any flavor of racism.

    Allows for the vocal minority to appear as a vocal majority, because the majority are actually busy with their lives.

    No? Windows is installed as a VM in Proxmox, as I’ve mentioned couple times already.

    I do config Proxmox also from Windows, but I need to go back to the barebone Proxmox in case the VM has issues.

    Anyhow, this was about dwm alternatives.

    I mostly use win11 as my main os, and using proxmox as a base lets me properly use things like pihole, homeassistant, nextcloud, and other such services, because Windows really sucks for virtualizing those.

    And OS hopping is a lot easier when I have a backend like proxmox.

    Want to try arch but not sure if nvidia/wayland support is there yet? Roll up a gpu-p’d VM for it, instead of wiping the entire disk.

    Edit: To further elaborate on what I have setup.

    1. Go through the typical proxmox install.
    2. Get debian up to date.
    3. Add Librewolf’s sources.
    4. apt install picom lightdm dwm librewolf
    5. Reboot.
    6. Login to dwm via lightdm, and open up librewolf.
    7. Navigate to the web ui.
    8. Add W11 VM image to storage.
    9. Create a W11 VM.
    10. Install W11 via VNC.
    11. GPU-P + USB Passthrough to W11.
    12. You’re now in Windows.

    Commented on this twice already, so see those replies;

    I’m using the web ui, I just need to use it from dwm on the same system for the initial master vm configuration.

    After I have gpu-p and such configured, I can access the web ui from inside the vm.

    The question was though what other options than dwm would be more fit for me, and what’s available on debian/proxmox.

    Because while dwm is lightweight like i3, awesome, bspwm, etc, it’s not a great fit right now.










  • Chances are MS is still tracking you via TPM and/or hw/peripherals.

    I can’t not register Windows 11, because despite everything I try to erase my hardware footprint, it still ties it to my digital license.

    This goes as far as upgrading every single piece of hardware on my PC, and using an entirely different ISP.

    And no. I don’t use any Microsoft services on Win 11. I don’t use Internet in any capacity when installing. Nor do I use any cd keys for Windows.

    Everything the installer asks me, I answer “No.” to.

    This should honestly be a huge privacy concern but alas.
