Well they’re not entirely wrong… I mean I turn off my notifications when I go to sleep.

I knew a kid in elementary school, let’s call him Brian S. He moved away in the 5th grade. Bye Brian 😢

6th grade. Spring vacation. My family drives us down to visit an aunt from upstate NY, down in North Carolina.

We have our vacation. It’s now the following Saturday. We’re driving home. We stop at a rest area on 95. I see Brian S and his family just walking from their car to the rest area. Same time as us.

We stop and chat for a few mins. It’s the 90s so we can’t like trade cell phone numbers or anything. I don’t even think we had regular instant messaging screen names yet.

Last I ever saw Brian S.

it would be cool if Brian S reads this now and PM you after all these years.

Yeah except I obfuscated details, so Tom M is never gonna get it, because we actually grew up in VT.

This is also inaccurate. 😁

It may be, but could you try making the same remark without sounding like a toxic asshole?

Congratulations you discovered pointless negativity

@bruce965@lemmy.ml avatar

None, I use Docker for Linux, and Proton (Heroic) for Windows.

But if I had to pick a virtual machine: libvirt with virt-manager as a frontend, which uses KVM for virtualization.

Its fair bcs vmware workstation does not support gpu passthrough libvirt with virt-manager is the only way

Nomecks ,

OpenShift Virtualization

mitrosus ,

Can virt-manager boot windows boxes?

med ,

Yeah, though there’s some commandline shenanigans to get a tpm shim set up if you want it for windows 11

krash ,

Correct me I’d I’m wrong, but with docker you’re limited to the filesyatems and the image of the OS you’re installing. If you need to experiment with the pre-OS boot events, can that even be accomplished with docker? E.g., trying out different GRUB settings, setting up LUKS with dropbear etc. I think those things require a VM.

bruce965 ,
@bruce965@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah, you are correct. Docker shares the kernel with the host operating system, it doesn’t use hardware virtualization. That’s why it’s so fast and simple, but it also means it’s not a traditional VM and thus comes with some limitations.

fmstrat ,

From my other comment:

Then I created a Docker image with Linux, Gnome, and novnc so I can spin one up instantly with little resource overhead and control it from any web browser.

Maybe I should release my Dockerfile.

Telorand ,

I’m just now learning about Docker and Containerfiles, so I wouldn’t be opposed to a real world example…

I might actually be interested. It’s like a lightweight alternative to Proxmox?

Usually VirtualBox. It’s easy and free.

I agree ngl i prefer vmware more

Diplomjodler3 ,

Me three.

frankenswine ,

a rather odd choice given the alternatives

bjoern_tantau ,
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

Besides VMWare it always seemed the easiest for me to quickly make a Windows VM or so. Everything else usually had more configuration steps. But that’s been a while ago. There could very well have been easier tools available in the mean time. I never bothered to look.

I only ever used “permanent” virtualization once on my server. I think with Xen. But it didn’t give me any benefits for my use case so I dropped it later on. Also probably at least ten years ago.

We’ve definitely noticed an increase in signups at lemmy.ca when that news was announced. Not all active users yet, but a lot of signups

Thanks for the insight!

communism , to piracy in How to get started with pirating music (mp3s)?
@communism@lemmy.ml avatar

What I do personally is get any music I want from soulseek and then sync my music directory across devices with syncthing. Although I’m planning on renting a vps to put my music on at some point as it’s taking up quite a lot of my phone storage now.

On desktop I like to use mpd with ncmpcpp. On Android(/GrapheneOS) I’m using Metro as my music player.
