From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Does the bypass not still work?
It does, you can manually install windows 11 even without the hardware "requirements"
Everyone is fear mongering over this. It's the same shit how windows 10 didn't officially support a bunch of systems but you could install it anyway.
Currently running a desktop on W11 on "unsupported hardware". Even managed to get it onto a 15 year old machine running a first gen i7 920 and not even a hint of a TPM module as an experiment and it worked perfectly fine.
Sure, but then pretty well nothing will work, so what's the point ?
Stuff breaks?
