From my experience 3d is emulated and not passthrough for single GPU devices unless your system has more than one GPU then you should be able to passthrough the pcie device to the VM that needs it.
It's a shame that GPUs aren't overcommit capable for compute/memory like CPUs are right now. It might take a few years for that to happen.
So far I haven't seen the ability to share single GPU across multiple VMs yet.
Radeon and RISC-V and OpenPower and any combination of Chiplet design with HyperTransport is something I want to play with on a mobile workstation or a MiniPC.
AMD is too risk averse to actually launch said product packaging. If only tech giants had a forced mandate of one innovative product for the masses every year.
Alien mask because these things don't happen because they are outerspace thinking.
Citrix products are so niche that someone found a way to leverage opensource to deploy xen without Citrix.
I have my homelab running xcp-ng 8.2.1 on about 7 Intel NUCs.
You cant mix AMD and Intel CPUs , can't mix versions but it all runs without bugging me for drivers. I do wish wifi would be a thing for hypervisors but that's not happening. Homelabs are things of beauty when it works. If it breaks I reload the last config backup and wipe if I need to. I got no data to speak of. All the isos scripts configs are on my workstation and I'm running it remote.
Beer as free as opensource as you can get without shelling out the green bucks.
Intel have a good RISC implementation of the x86_64 code right?
And AMD has their chiplet technology. I have been for nearly 10 years or so waiting for AMD to do a CPU GPU GPGPU DPU DSP all in one package. And release it for the desktop mobile and devices.
And I'm still waiting.
Deepfakes and other AI tech is already here. You could hire some no name actor and do it all and plaster with anyone. Imagine having any famous actor in your home movies. Might be not many see it or you get sued for using their likeness. AI could make a 20% different features so it could look almost like RDJ or ScarJo or Chris Evans in your homemade Marv-Els home revengers. :-D
What's with the versioning hate? Firefox made numbering literally useless and same thing for chrome and some other opensource software.
Also I do feel the authors pettiness towards KDE not addressing HIS pet peeves while ignoring what a majority of KDE users would consider nothing burgers or actual features that KDE users want.
We need better reviewers and reviews of Linux desktop UI based on different people different workflows.
I learnt that US civil bodies like to let things rot to the point where "emergency" funds will get approved post-haste to fix the "disaster" that they let fester and fail. That way they get to keep and spend the maximum amount that they ever wanted in funding.
Now it is never okay for any government to wait and sit on their hands until disasters are exacerbated and forced into dealing with massive scale catastrophes. If the responsible are never held to account and never called into question, then that is how things will continue to be the norm. It is a crapshoot for anyone caught in the middle when the midden hits the windmill.
Icon for the multiple train derailement and chemical spills poisoning the land.
CcP and PLA Did break into SpaceX and steal most of the source code but they forgot that MAssive projects have hideous tooling and integration requirements and simply stringing together if_then_else isn't going to cut it for even the start.
With out the scripts and tools a d People in the know how to configure build and execute you are stuck up sh*t creek without any clothes on.
The fact that there is no choice to switch between the two styles in MSOffice tells you all you need to know about it.
These days we are doing corporate docs in markdown and generating either ppt or pdf or xls from those files. Even the sales decks are automated in the same way.
So why pay for Office except for the PHBs ????
How relevant does Office need to be?
Most of the situation where hibernate broke was in the corporate windows system. My personal Linux systems happily hibernate or sleep or shutdown on command and never shirk their duties. That is why sudo or doas or root is such a good implementation!
I gotta say that I have been a massive fan of Stardock Windows BLinds and LiteStep and now ClassicShell on Winblows platforms. Rainmeter is another wonderful panacea against some of the bloatware that is explorer.exe Make sure to get Sysinternals tools and Powertoys.
Personally I run GeckoLinux on my experimental systems and Fedora37 that has been dist-upgraded since f32 days.
Sad is the day when corporates decide that they think that they know best and force all employees to run this malware ransomware riddled garbage that is WinDOze.
Why does a state-media company get to put out opinion pieces as if it were fact and not just that, an opinion?
India is not a free-speech state. Free-speech in India is a privilege and any abuses will get the full consequences either from govt or judicial bodies. Problem it's ripe for abuse and powertrips.
Any foreigners or Indians should take note of liberties freedoms and limitations such as foreign persons protesting in India can be subject to arrest and deportation. Only Indian citizens and not even residents have that right. So take care and be mindful of local laws wherever you may be.
Probably the number one reason lab results never make it to market in the exact same way they tested them.
Like someone mentioned use the solar to make ammonia hydrogen store it ship it and use a smaller solar farm insite to release the hydrogen.
Or just setup pumped storage since you have lots of land and might need water during dry season and test the limits capacity the system generates stores and handled. Then later figure out the buyer seller etc once it is actually functional.
Small steps and all that.
It's all wishful thinking for the return of CDE and OLVWM or even KDE3.x
Fvwm is still around and switching to it is like a fresh breeze what with its rootless desktop and pager and right-click menu.
We don't need fancy, we need customisable and functional. Simple text config files and we are done.
When there exists SLES ppc64le and RHEL ppc64le .... Why Why would anyone want to continue with AIX ???
Is it such a big impact if 80 AIX Dev positions got offshored?
If you had said Redhat Devs' positions were moving to India that would ring alarmbells.
Pirate becos it is offshore where bribery .... ahem..... I mean corruption .... errrr .... piracy.... arrr..... abounds.
Russia has always claimed it would oppose the West as the other axis of power. Obvious Putin has been the next Evil Guy (tm) for the longest time probably since first appearing as a notetaking Lackey of Gorbachev or Kurushchev or some Russian head of state. Crazy then, crazy now.
Hasn't it been happening for the longest time? US company offshores jobs to some 3rd world low cost location and rehires a few "managers" or "directors" for oversight and remote management back in the US.
With CoV19 and WFH becoming the norm, this has to have been accelerated beyond belief.
Also IT support isn't the "sexiest" job right? Crypto bros and influencers and ahem OF and the gig economy are at their peak right right?
The beatings will continue until morale improves!
Tormenting victims by boosting abusers back on the platform and allowing existing convicted abusers exploit the platform even after repeat violations and perma-bans is a very Jerry Springer style of management.
Wonder who taught Elongated Muskrat these abuse techniques...
Nononono I'm sorry come back allisforgiven
Punch you in the mouth calls you an old fart
Falsely accuses others of the crime they themselves are actively committing
I believe the above is how sociopaths and psychopaths usually behave. No blame lies with them and always others.
When I prefer NUCs for running VMware and any other Hypervisor solutions in my personal "lab" over anything else tells me Intel are truly dropping the ball when it comes to business. I guess I need to rethink buying couple of R-pi boards and some other mini PC brand and really start building my own management io and solutions. So far I ignored since NUCs seemed likely to stay but Intel is pushing me towards other vendors.
Musk PROFITEERS 400 Million dollars for receivers in Ukraine paid by volunteers and users while he "Donated" 3000 units one time.
He egotistically threatened to cut off Paid Subscription service and asked DoD to gift him almost 900 million fot a Paid Service!
Billionaires and MultiNationalCompanies need to be taxed at 75% gross and anyone below 10% of what the CEO is making gets compensated to meet the company mean wage. Rest held until the company or top mgmt eventually messes up and then boom dissolve and payout all impacted.
Everything goes public domain after 50 years. Billionaires dont get to trickledickdown or hold economy hostage.
This is the Nukeclear option. only way to be sure.
Previous govt had the CBI parrot and current govt has this "Finance" cuckatoo in charge.
My fellow ethnic origin statesperson has been in my opinion responsible for "arranging" fast track money laundering using Stooges in banking orgs and officials double printing and double destroying new minted currencies and "losing" truckloads of newly minted currencies at local bank branches "accidentally". The entire charade of demonetization was looting public coffers and establishing an aboveground fastlane for money laundering in the country with zero public oversight . All this is in my opinion.
Neither party has a future that is corruption-free and it is business as usual with free corruption thrown in no backsies.
You know India is buying Dino Juice from Russia using Chinese RMB?
Also the CCP is notorious for claiming and demoing things that are patently false.
So take it with a pinch of salt and a pound of skepticism if the CCP says anything through any of its domestic and foreign orifices.
Let's not whataboutism. A dysfunctional democracy with loads of corruption is waaay better than a dictatorial communist regime that can weld you shut at your home or arbitrarily cut up your passport and prevent you from leaving.
India allows foreign companies to either bring or take out their earnings in USD just try that in China I dare you.
If you wish to monitor and log your cloud resource using the cloud providers services you get to install their agent . in azure its called omsagent.
I gotta say if u go "cloud" it does have advantages. Without good architects and support staff you won't get good results in ANY platform.
IT is not for idiots to implement. That includes "cloud"
