Latest LTSC is still on Windows 10 and the next one won't be out till mid 2024.
I have it running without issue on some machines - not sure how it is for gaming though...
Like it'll probably run most things but maybe there'll be a loss in performance?
Which edition are you trying to install? Are you using an up-to-date ISO?
I've only ever used the business edition, and it's never given me any trouble.
Make sure all the legacy CSM crap is disabled in BIOS.
Boot off the flash drive and run the installer.
When you get prompted to sign in with a Microsoft account click "Domain join instead" (or something similar).
Create a normal account but leave the password field blank (to avoid having to enter security questions).
After you finish the setup and get into Windows, hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete and set a password.
(optional) Go into settings and either enter your legally obtained key to activate Windows (it should automagically recombobulate itself into a matching editon) or read through the aforementioned tools section for an alternative đŽââ ïž
Might sound kinda dumb, but try dumping a bucket of (ice) cold water on your head.
The trick is to dump all the water at once and not gradually to get your body into a "I'm being attacked by lions!" state.
This is for instant relief. For gradual improvement try increasing your daily water intake - set reminders to drink a glass or two during the day and drink right before going to sleep and right after waking up.
Source: inherited migraines from my grandma and started getting them regularly around my teens.
Doing the above has made me nearly migraine-free except for when there's drastic weather changes (when I get them with auras and everything đ”âđ«).
Good luck!
I take it to the garage whenever the little dash LCD asks or when I get the yearly letter from the ministry of transport.
Other than that I just assume it's fine if there's no weird noises...
I got two Brother laser AIOs (MFC1910W) for my folks and myself.
All I had to do on Arch was install brother-mfc-1910w for printing, brscan4 for scanning and oh-brother for (occasionally) upgrading the firmware, all over WiFi.
I think more user-friendly distros come with these packages preinstalled, so it should just be a matter of opening the printer manager and waiting for it to show up.
Don't think they make the specific model anymore, but any Brother laser AIO should do.
Maybe rebuilding the ramdisk failed during the original upgrade?
One of the post-install stages after upgrading the kernel is rebuilding the initramfs - a tiny environment for bootstrapping the main OS.
If you trigger it manually with mkinitcpio --allpresets you'll notice it has fancy colorful output, with clearly visible warnings/errors. However when invoked as part of an upgrade this coloring is removed, making errors difficult to spot.
I had this stage randomly fail a few times, resulting in an unbootable system like you described - solution was to just trigger a manual rebuild or reinstall the kernel with pacman -U.
It's possible that this is what actually fixed things when you downgraded the kernel.
