The OSX idea is very much an edge case for me. I’ve heard of it but not something I know much about.

I think I’m sold on NOT using HyperV. I will also keep it to one monitor because thats my current setup.

I’ll give it a try!

I work on remote and local machines and I feel comfortable on both. For this project, I have the advantage of all of my hardware being in my house. Latency wouldn’t be an issue over my wired network. Sunshine would allow me to game locally for sure.

I am very aware if the PCIE lane circus you have to go through on consumer hardware. I considered building a used/refurb EPYC system and even borrowed one from work for a bit. It was nice, but my build would have put me somewhere near $6000 at best. Hahahahh 😭

I’m going to try both ways. For most of my computing, I’d be happy to get 80% of my computing power if I get the convenience of not having to reboot across OSs and the ability to snapshot a VM state

I hadnt considered this. I was thinking that if I passed an audio device directly to the guest OS, I would bypass ASIO headaches. I now realize thats naïve of me.

I will try to post some updates as I Frankenstein this build

I will look into this. I’ve heard of qubes but only thought of if for security/privacy use cases

This might/probably will be the end game for me as well. Sunshine for remote gaming and ruatdesk/ssh for work.

I’ve read through the thread and your edit sounds like the best option for me. It gives direct hardware access and gets everything working right away but allows me to try out a hypervisor solution.

I love and use containers/Distrobox all the time and it all works great except that I do run into problems with firmware and kernel modules because you can’t containerize that or I haven’t figured it out yet.

Off topic: Why does this picture look like AI? Its weirdly warm and lacking contrast? I’m not talking about telltale details, I could tell scrolling past

I’m curious about this Hackintosh. You got a good guide or some info lying around?

I love the stability and uptime and I don’t want to break anything in my homelab. When would upgrading from 8.4 to 9 make sense?

This article is missing

• btop
• nvtop (works with Nvidia and AMD)
• LACT (oc tool first but very informative)

Gotcha. So both are declaring an emergency but with different urgency

I thought “mayday” was outdated and “pan-pan” is used nowadays

That was delightful
