  • my laptop probably has very similar specs to your laptop. also, windows just uses more computing resources than linux in general.

    i dont care about if its few seconds faster at booting or has few percents more resources availabe after hours of configuring.

    all i need for my apprenticeship is just a windows laptop to work with office365 and a few specific apps, which dont need full resources. but it has to be windows because of domain policy from ADDS.

    my apprentice will end in a few weeks and since i wont need these apps anymore tomorrow in a week, ill delete the windows partitions from my laptop.

    id appreciate you helping me and others with articles how to get a bit faster windows system, if id asked for it, but i didnt.











  • Thanks for your reply!

    ATAK may be a nice piece of software but the wrong app for my use case. It offers too many features I won’t need, and the setup for it to work is probably too complicated.

    I looked into Owntracks (just the app, haven’t installed the server yet) and it looks more of what I was looking for. I tested the list of locations, but the location only gets displayed as coordinates and not on the map. Eventually, I will see some more features when having a server, but idk. Is there like a public server, so I can play around before putting too much time in installing the server?
