Man this thread has taught me all sorts of things. I will definitely check out UTM. Thanks for that!!

On the cheesegrater(2019 MacPro) it’s a little convoluted. During covid times it was my single box lab since it had so much memory (768TB). So I was running nested ESXI hosts and then VMs under that. I also have a M1 MacBook Pro that I had parallels run ARM VMs (mostly MacOS, Windows, and a couple of Debian installs I think).

I have been looking at VMWare alternatives at work so for the hypervisors I’ve been playing around.

I do this stuff for a living but I also do it home for fun and profit. Ok not so much profit. Ok no profit but definitely for the fun. And because I love large electric bills.

Ok I’ll have to try this. The weird thing is my little test proxmox server is a 2013 trashcan. So this would be like a hackintosh running on Mac hardware. Would that technically be a hackintosh? I’m not really sure. According to the Apple license you can virtualize MacOS if it’s running on Mac hardware. I’m not sure if that requires MacOS as the hypervisor. Regardless this is not something I knew about. Very cool. Thanks for the info.

Well I do but I have a machine with 3/4 of a terabyte of memory on it.

Work scraps are great sometimes.

How are you running the MacOS VMs. The machine I have is a cheese grater so that makes it easier.

Oh you said gas…. Sorry I misunderstood for a second.

Anytime there is an unknown like this and you put yourself in danger, regardless of how small it might be perceived, to help another human being, you did a very brave thing. That dude is awesome.

It sorta makes up that he works for fox… 🤪. I keed I keed. Seriously though… dude is a hero.

That’s like 3mph for 17 hours. Jesus…. That’s a lot of wheaties… by my back of the napkin calculations that’s burning like 4200 calories a day.

Or pop-up video…

Seems like his name shoulda been Tom Collins if he’s with the ATF

Yep. Very domain specific knowledge but couldn’t pour piss outta a boot with the instructions on the heel.

Yeah I think this an mSATA port.

Edit: on second glance I think the right part of the connector has too many pins.

Fuck… guess I’m old too. Not sure when that happened.

2 is the coolest tech wise but least female friendly. The 50s thing could be cool … maybe a 50s diner as another idea. Me personally I’ve always wanted to do a 1980s arcade theme. I also think a madmen type man cave could also be cool.

Thank you. I listen to that when I need motivation. Especially “No time for caution”

I believe you’re definitely right about that. The whole AR thing has so many potential uses.

I wish some company that wasn’t a giant asshole was working on these type devices. I really think AR is a neat idea especially for someone like me. I have a terrible time remembering people’s names likely related to my ADHD. I mean people that I have worked with for years. It’s just like my brain freezes up. And forgetting words. And a hodgepodge of other little mental quirks.

Having a little bubble appear over their head with name and maybe other customizable info would be greatly useful. Of course an always on display that pops up random notifications directly in my field of view would not have any deleterious side effects… no none whatsoever. 😋

Well shit… that’s an amazing idea.

I swear sometime he really seems like he is personally trying to kill twitter/x/xitter whatever it’s called.

Well that’s interesting for sure. But I’m white and not even Indian. I just have a lot of Indian/Hindu friends and wanted to learn more about their culture. I knew the symbol existed for much longer than Nazi’s even though it’s not even really the same symbol. But to a bunch of let’s just say less educated rural Americans it looks exactly the same.

I’ve had to explain to so many people that “No they don’t have Nazi symbols in their yards because of Halloween”. And I’m atheist and not even Hindu.
