If you have dual GPUs or an iGPU plus a GPU, you can use passthrough and play your games with near native performance in an isolated Windows virtual machine under Linux.

When I was a kid this was the picture we were used to see from the states in movies. Hope it goes back to that asap.
From a non-American: can’t wait to see Trump & co. disappear from our daily feed after November for good.
You sent me down a frightening rabbit hole…
Your interpretation sounds pretty likely to me. I’d guess if they get nukes, they’ll go Israeil’s way and will newer admit to it publicy.
Another book on the history of unix is UNIX: A History and a Memoir from Kernighan. It was a joy to read.
Cool. I noticed I have seen the author’s name in TUHS mailing list. He’s still posting there sometimes.
Around 25 years ago I had read about this Linux thingy in a computer magazine somewhere in the middle east. We had a Windows 95/98 PC. I got my hands on some Red Hat CDs (or floppies) and managed to install it on the PC. It booted into a prompt, but I had zero knowledge of Linux or any Unix-like OSes and had absolutely no idea of man pages. Didn’t manage to start the graphical environment. I took my case and rode my motorcycle to some computer engineering student (the most knowledgeable person I had access too, we had no Internet) and asked him for help. He told me it’s my graphics card (some old ISA VGA card), but couldn’t help more. In the computer market no one knew about Linux either. So my first try to switch to Linux failed.
Fast forward 25 years… I’m surrounded with Linux and computers in general. Desktops, laptops, single board computers, virtual machines, local or remote. I started with Ubuntu (free CDs posted to my poor country…) with Gnome and later gnome shell, tried Debian, Mint, Parsix, and finally Arch Linux. Moved from graphical to command line and started absorbing the Unix philosophy of simplicity and robustness. Nowadays I use sway and KDE on Arch Linux for work and pleasure, and follow very old Unix mailing lists looking for hidden internet gems.
P.S.: forgot to mention Libreelec (kodi) as my media server and OpenSUSE Leap on laptop which I chose to enjoy some automated install with encryption and btrfs which worked surprisingly well. If I live long enough, I might start thinkering with BSDs (openbsd probably, because of the picture at the bottom of their homepage). I already use pfsense which is based on FreeBSD.
Anyone interested in awk make sure to check the just published awk book second revision by original authors. Kernigan’s writings are a joy to read.
I use command line search and replace, vim and sublime. Most importantly I intentionally stay away from full featured IDEs, since imo they encourage writing more complex code by hiding away the complexity.
You’ll be missed Bram. RIP.
Ich kann dir nur zustimmen. DB ist leider nicht zuverlässig genug. Ich fahre selber immer stundenlang früher (bei Flugverkehr manchmal ein Tag früher), damit ich von ausgefallenen oder verspäteten Züge nicht betroffen werde. Darüber hinaus habe ich genug Verbindungen wegen Verspätungen verpasst (und in nirgendwo hängen geblieben), dass ich jetzt nur direkte Verbindungen aussuche. Leider gibt es immer noch für viele Strecken keine direkte ICE Verbindung.
Ich würde sagen, “radikal” viel bessere Bahn ist absolut notwendig. Bei DB ist die Pünktlichkeit fragwürdig. Ich weiß zwar, dass sie ein kompliziertes Problem in der Hand haben, aber es ist halt so.
ich war vorgestern am Flughafen Frankfurt. Auf der Tabelle gab Flüge nach Stuttgart, Berlin, München, und viele andere Städte, die gut mit der Bahn erreichbar sind. Das fand ich katastrophal.
You are just showing sympathy toward others. That’s okay.
