    WSL.

    Leave Windows on it, but turn it into a de facto bootloader for a functional OS. IT gets to keep their bullshit jobs; you get to use a functional OS.

      I wish I could, but I don’t have the admin rights necessary to activate it.

      Fortunately we’re a reasonably small firm, so I may be able to make an argument for it. And in the meantime, I have a dashboard server running Debian onto which I have also installed a bunch of useful tools that I can either get to with my browser, or SSH into.
