Running Windows 11 on Linux with KVM/QEMU

This guide walks through the full process of running Windows 11 on Linux using KVM/QEMU and Virt-Manager,  the most robust and future-proof setup available today. While tools like VirtualBox still exist, KVM/QEMU has quietly become the gold standard on Linux. It offers: Near-native CPU performance Excellent disk and network throughput Proper UEFI, Secure Boot, and TPM support Long-term compatibility with Windows 11 updates Before starting, make sure you have: A Linux system with virtualization enabled in BIOS Intel: VT-x / VT-d AMD: SVM / IOMMU At least 8 GB RAM (16 GB recommended) Around 80 GB of free disk space A Windows 11 ISO The VirtIO drivers ISO Step 1: Check Virtualization Support Open a terminal and run: egrep -c '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo If the result is 1 or higher , virtualization is enabled.

Syncing Struggles with the Fitbit App on Pixel Watch: Is This a New Feature or Just a Glitch?


As someone who loves tracking health data through various apps, it’s been frustrating to deal with syncing issues between my Pixel Watch and the Fitbit app. It’s odd because all my other apps sync flawlessly, yet Fitbit, which should be optimized for this kind of functionality, is consistently struggling. What's even more perplexing is that there’s no official context from Google explaining why this issue seems to be exclusive to Fitbit.

This raises a few questions: Could it be a bug in the app? Or perhaps, some kind of new feature that’s causing the sync to delay or misbehave? As of now, there’s no clear answer, and while Fitbit’s platform itself is packed with features, this syncing issue leaves me wondering about its reliability.

I hope this isn’t a sign of things to come, especially for an app so crucial to daily health tracking. It would be reassuring to Google address this head-on and provide some clarity.
