Hi, thanks for the tip for MATLAB! It’ll become useful in the next semester.

As for the AutoCAD, QEMU/KVM running on virt-manager did the trick for me.

Are you also concerned over the Western states surveilling you from the games?

This, but our government sells our data under the guise of breach.

Importing anything above €27 is out of the question here, the prices increases exponentially, and there’s a high risk of getting it seized in the border for govt to resel it in a higher price later. As I said earlier, I can work with VM or dualboot.

My country in particular has been pushing what I’d like to call the “anti-education” policy for decades now. They don’t teach anything in any grade, be it kindergarten or post-grad. They want you to study for the ridiculous exams that test your memorization instead of your knowledge. And even when you pass them and get in a good school, if you don’t have any relatives close to the government, you either have to move to other countries or work in inhuman conditions.

As for the AutoCAD, I’m using a VM, and I haven’t encountered any problems for now. I can go my own way after I pass the class.

I utfg but couldn’t find a vdi app for our school. Ig I’ll use VM since Web version doesn’t have the tools needed.

Fingers crossed for that!

Yep, a very hostile country against its citizens.

Those are inflated American prices. Whatever I said is probably much cheaper where you’re at.

I just checked it, and the cheapest option we have is around 40k, jfml. The reason for the expensiveness is the stores inflate the prices, and the taxes double the already ridiculous prices.

Look at the massgrave instructions for 21h2 iot ltsc, it’ll make your life easier.

Good to know! I might even try to dualboot using their ISOs instead.

The problem is $100 dollars is too much money here, ~5000 bucks. If I buy that I won’t be able to afford my bills. Switching back to Win10 if all else fails sounds way more affordable.

It didn’t work unfortunately. I’ll stick to VMs.

You’re right, but dual booting screwed up my computer many times, so I’m trying to avoid it at all costs. I’d rather use the web version or work slowly on the VM than pray for not breaking things again. I’m planning to use an older version like 2017 since our instructor approved any version that works on Win10 or 11.

I couldn’t get Lutris to run .exe files for some reasons. Is there any “Lutris for Dummies” sort of guide?

I asked them about VDI, and they asked me back what is it. Not surprising considering every semester course choosing becomes a nightmare.

I will use it for doing homeworks and exams, so speed isn’t my concern.

We are currently doing 2D stuff, so I don’t want to push my luck that much. I’ll try try the Web. If that fails, off to VM mine I go.

A new phrase dropped for “digging your own grave”

What would you expect from the Western artificial “intelligences”? I hope Iran hits their slop factories.

None of the “Proceed with caution” and “Safe for now” phones are sold here unfortunately.

Xiaomi is rather consumer-friendly compared to Samsung and Apple here—better customer service, frequent discounts, etc. I think I’ll stick to them.

Np and thx!
