Can i draw and play osu ?
Another thing you can do is in OpenTabletDriver, go to the Plugins window and look for the WindowsInk plugin. You might need to get a driver called VMulti as well. Instructions here https://github.com/X9VoiD/VoiDPlugins/wiki/WindowsInk

Tablet and Pen
There is a plugin for that, however it is highly unlikely that you will be able to get any usable pressure data out of that pen, since the tablet is expecting a different pen for that. But if you want to try, you need to download this version of the driver and follow these instructions. Almost certainly won't work due to having the wrong pen, but worth a shot.

CTL-470 Wacom Bamboo looses pen pressure after windows 10 updates, trying to start using OTD
I'd ask on OTD's Discord for more specific help for that driver since this subreddit is more of general Wacom help, but chances are you haven't installed vmulti and the WindowsInk plugin for OTD, which allow you to use pen pressure. There is a setup guide here.

Trying to use CTH-472 for osu! and Krita interchangeably
You should use OpenTabletDriver, not Hawku. Hawku drivers are extremely outdated and buggy which is probably why Windows Ink mode on there isn't working properly for you. OpenTabletDriver does not support pen pressure in its default pluginless state, but you can easily install the Windows Ink plugin in plugins>plugin manager. In order to set this plugin up properly, please read all the instructions listed here. Once installed, pen pressure should work fine for art. You can also install smoothing or antichatter filters to preference, if needed. The art settings probably are not ideal for osu, so you can save a separate art and osu settings profile by exporting settings with file>save settings as. You can then press file>load settings to swap between the two.

We released a new powerful efficiency tool called RunFlow, which is similar to PowerToys and Alfred, welcome to try it
RunFlow is a cross-platform productivity tool which can launch apps and search files and more, that similar to Wox and PowerToys on Windows, and also similar like Alfred and Raycast on macOS. But we have differences with these tools, and we have our own unique new features. Right now, at the below, we will introduce you what features of RunFlow have been implemented in more details. It's an amazing journey, let's start.

GTK: On fractional scales, fonts and hinting
I'm curious - when you were doing research into the mechanics of hinting options, did you stumble onto any relevant discussion around allowing custom pixel geometries to be defined, to enable hinting on modern OLED / WRBG displays? There's a good thread on the topic here[0], with some people referring to it as 'ClearType 2' on the MS side [1]. On the oss side I know FreeType theoretically supports this[2], but I can't quite figure out how relevant the FreeType backend is to this most recent work.
This is great work btw.

Ask HN: Cleanest way to manage Windows OS?
Thank you all for the informative advices. Here is the summary for those who are in the same situation:
1. Run Windows on Linux by using VM
for the applications you can’t run on Linux
Risks:
* some softwares may attempt to detect VMs and refuse running
* Anything what needs to touch hardware may not work.
2. separate "data" partition on D:
3. back up %APPDATA% and %USERPROFILE%
4. learn chocolatey, scoop or winget
Winget should be good enough
5. Don’t worry about C:\Program Files
6. (Mixed) Use/Don’t use Ansible (or saltstack/salt)
Use:
* Allows you to setup a new machine quickly and consistently when one breaks, get stolen, or lost in an inconvenient time.
* You can get a clean and consistent development environment so that you do not depend on anything accidentally installed on the machine.
* If you define specialised roles, create test playbooks for those individual roles, use these roles to compose more complex playbooks, and offload logic to custom ansible modules that are written in python, you won't wrestle with heavy logic in the template or playbook layer.
* installing software and pulling some configs and scripts down is fine
Don’t use:
* You will spend your days fighting a mix of yaml and Jinja.
* You will end up looking at Python errors because there are no static types.
* errors are cryptic.
7. Use WSL2
You need 32gb of ram, but ram is cheap so choose a good thinkpad
8. Debloat with Recommended Tweaks
Run
irm christitus.com/win | iex
from Administrator Terminal (Powershell)
The link leads to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil/mai...
VirusTotal
https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/709834b0e003b6bb546cf16e...
9. Get [PowerToys](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys)
10. Use Devbox for containered environment
https://www.jetpack.io/devbox
11. Dual-Booting Linux and Windows
If you use physically separated drives, you don’t need partitioning.
12. Dedicated Windows machine for class
Yes it sure would be the cleanest solution but I prefer one device for everything
13. keep a git repository with all dot files in it
Many people suggested me to use virtualization, otherwise just let Windows be Windows.
Also, backing up seems to be a good practice.
I’m planning to write a blog about this, if it worked.
Again, thank you all for the helps!
