X11vnc works like a dream on X11, couldnt agree more.

There is wayvnc for Wayland supposedly to solve the same problem, but I havent tried it myself yet

If you want to put in more work for more freedom, a lot of SBC’s can do something similar too.

Weird someone has a similar setup to mine, its almost exactly the same (one nvidia one amd? Cause that’d be scary).

Feel like its overkill for most folks though lmao

I’d say nix is hardly niche at this point (although I’m biased cause I use it a ton)

There’s even a termux fork these days that runs nix on droid

From all the time saved not troubleshooting windows you might actually have to pick up a hobby, which I suppose to some is a reason

That being said it builds up vulnerabilities in anti-cheats to another beautiful crowstrike like domino cluster fuck

I skimmed over your entire comment minus the part about docker, so if you answered this somewhere and I’m a dumbass I already accept fault,

that being said docker has taught me more about Linux than anything else, cause its like a micro Linux you can reliably bring up and take down on demand, without requiring risking breaking your GUI or something scary

That being said Microsoft still did hire crowd strike and give them the keys to release an update like this.

End result still is windows having more issues than linux

Oh I see, have you tried file versioning?

It honestly sounds exactly like what you want, and the support is even built in to call an external command if you don’t like their default options provided

Is the roundabout way file versioning? Cause its been pretty stable for me, just toss a device with lots of space on the cluster and crank up the versions to your hearts content

Makes sense, but at least this would generally be out of a normal users usage case (multi-file documents), and so the power user could probably just open flatseal.

For things like bookmarks it’d work fine, and by extension make the sandbox more secure

I’m not 100% confident but I thought you could use portals to access individual files outside of the sandbox

If you don’t want the card I wouldn’t be against buying it off you for a bit more than an rx590

I have a rack server in the garage with a gaming PC in it, 2 PSU’s and the 2 GPU’s mentioned, all running on Debian (which I soon plan to swap to nixos).

The AMD GPU’s is passed through to a windows VM with 8 gigs or so of ram, for VR development in the garage usually, but sometimes is streamed as well.

The second Nvidia GPU goes to my linux machine on Ubuntu just for ease of patched nvidia drivers, a couple virtual monitors with an xconfig like this, and is my daily driver with 16 gigs of RAM.

Both use Virtio drivers for disk, network, and anything else I’m forgetting, Pcie passthrough via KVM/QEMU on the host.

I’d say the latency hangs around 5ms when streaming both at once, and never comes close to saturating the gigabit connection, but I’m sure some optimisations could be done somewhere along the line.

Clients run on anything from an Xbox series X to a random PC, hopefully soon an orange pi (worried about latency though).

When I have a workload requiring both GPU’s I just keep 2 moonlight windows open and use the keybinds to unfocus the mouse then alt+tab to swap between them.

I don’t have any complaints, although one time when my thermal setup was worse I left 2 copies Subnautica running for my wife and I to at Nitrox together, and it did start to drop in fps on the Linux machine once we picked it up after an hour or 2 running the games AFK.

Edit to add I’m mostly using this for gaming right now, but its handled everything (within reason) that I’ve tossed at it, but I’m planning on soon setting up this sometime soon also across a couple other PC’s, but as of right now the VM’s feel as if they’re entirely distinct PC’s from an external perspective

I currently have a setup exactly like this, with a threadripper 2950x, an RX 6600, and a 2070 super.

Let me know if you have any questions in the specifics, but its 100% possible

Best part of this setup is being able to connect to both via sunshine on many displays at once

You got me there

Me putting a 4 TB 3.5" HDD in my phone

Probably along the lines of ‘its bloated and too many dependencies’.

Though most flatpaks use a common base, any modifications on top of that sometimes need to be stored modified (now having 2 or more copies of one dependency)

To anyone that’s not a Linux nerd the app looks about the same size as on all other OS’s, but on Linux it makes it a lot larger than just bare bones installing it via package manager

Sounds like games on whales was nearly made for you.

If you’re wired on both ends, its essentially unnoticeable
