I did the same thing with my netbook 4 years ago, but I went with Debian instead to make my life a bit easier. It was, at the time, one of a small number of distros that still offi…

Google Illuminate does this. I believe it was actually a precursor to Gemini Notebook. It uses a similar podcast generating model but tuned to keep things more technical and detail…

I know those offer virtual GPUs, but I am unfamiliar with any paravirtual GPU offerings from VMWare or VirtualBox. The virtual GPUs are much more limited in performance and graphic…

I assume your concern with GPU passthrough is that each VM needs a whole GPU? You can use GPU-PV to split your GPU between VM instances. Then the main bottleneck becomes how thin y…

It sounds to me like a product of the ‘90s. CRTs were still common, and they support essentially arbitrary fixed refresh rates. It wouldn’t have been a big deal at the time. It’s l…

If you have evidence to the contrary, it would make for a great lawsuit. Apple is very explicit that they cannot read it. This data is end-to-end encrypted, much like the data coll…

A few things that stood out to me: - One of the key factors in powder over pods in his prior videos was cost. Cheap powder runs about 6.6¢/oz. The brand he’s promoting is $1.11/oz,…
