The post on your link has no date, I don't know if this is from January or from December.

Yeah, overwhelming but can be cool to learn about this https://linrunner.de/tlp/settings/index.html and https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Tlp has some documentation, with this and some blog from a user explaining it, it should work. Also, the auto-cpufreq
is pretty cool, makes your PC go slower but saves a lot of your laptop energy, or I feel like this.
About Battery life, did you try this? https://austingwalters.com/increasing-battery-life-on-an-arch-linux-laptop-thinkpad-t14s/ TLP or PowerTop + https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq#why-do-i-need-auto-cpufreq ?
Try Linux another time (I also often switched to Windows in the past until now, I can finally say I would never use a Windows/Apple desktops, I really dislike them), I often try distros on my Laptop while my Desktop has a stable distro to work with. On laptop, I just try different distros as I do like to test them.
I remember like 5 years ago I was doing the same, but then I realized Windows is even worse with many problems and limitations. I can't just go to Windows, it sucks. Maybe you need compatible hardware or some more skills on Linux to fix your hardware issues.
But Proxmox is a big web interface app with many packages, right? virt-manager
looks much easier than installing Proxmox.
For just two VM, any Linux distro is enough, virt-manager
to easily run those VMs up and done. The default network will allow them to communicate between their NAT. Proxmox sounds too many complications for just some testing or development stuff.
Temple OS has no virtualization.
I use virt-manager
GUI to control KVM easily, but you can control anything easily with virsh
command lines. I dislike VMware and VirtualBox, neither needed. Also, on terminal client virsh
you can do much more configurations than just with virt-manager
.
Well, then I can't help, I normally always get those that cost more than 200 USD, they have it all (Bluetooth + dongle) and with high quality (+ noise-canceling). Mines are WH-1000XM4 if you are interested, and I'm very happy with them, in the past I had Bose QuietComfort 35 and Sennheiser Momentum M2-AEBT and I would still get Sony WH-1000XM4 as it is smarter with many features and quality.
More than "with Linux" you should indicate how much do you expect to spend here, it's not about the OS, it's about what kind of headsets you want (what features).
But we are talking about sentenced to prison, not sentenced to death.
For Linux compatibility, something like this https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/ would be better than Dell XPS 13.
