mangeurdenuage :gnu: :trisquel: :gondola_head: 🌿 :abeshinzo: :ignucius: (mangeurdenuage@shitposter.world)'s status on Sunday, 29-Dec-2024 22:59:24 JSTmangeurdenuage :gnu: :trisquel: :gondola_head: 🌿 :abeshinzo: :ignucius: @thatbrickster @kaia Except if they software required a form of DRM it might be an issue technically because of wine, but you never know, wine enforced a DRM online activation even tho I had the dvd of the game.
But legally as long as it's not circumvention of DRM (except in France) then there's no legal or contract binding clause in all the EULA that I have read that tells you that a software has to only run on X operating system, otherwise that would mean that even VMs could be afflicted by such degenerated copyright logic.
Speaking of that you could also run a VM via qemu/kvm instead of having a full windows install.
Kaia mentioned that hte man is 82yo even tho possible now that I think about it, I doubt someone who's 82yo has the brain elasticity to be able to even change from the MS UI to even MATE compact which is the closest UI you can have from windows.
But you never know.
If you still migrate him to win11 then consider these
