This makes total sense his DC in Memphis will be his Houston. That DC will control all space flights and space robots.

This could happen without a merger

One c suite is much cheaper and easier to control then two. Reminds me of many reversed mergers in oil and gas.

The a human would do it better people are hilarious. Given how many times I have been hit by human drives on my bike and watched others get creamed by a cars. One time in Boulder at a flashing cross walk a person ran right through it and the biker they creamed got stuck in the roof rack.

For real, I am convinced these are people who never walk or bike, at least around cities like Santa Monica. I am an everyday urban walker and I have to constantly be on alert not to be hit, even when I'm behaving predictably and with the right of way.

Yeah I have to wonder if any of the "humans would do it better" people actually have children and have dropped them off in a school zone. Drivers are on their phones rolling through school zones at 25-30 during pickup/dropoff hours all the fucking time.

Ah 3d is fine with Maya and all the real VFX running on Linux. And we haven't had problems with game dev for years on Linux. Agree otherwise good to see another join.

I spent over a decade developing rendering software used in VFX, and ran CentOS Linux as my development platform at work.

We tried to follow the VFX reference platform once that became a thing back in 2014.

Unity works fine for example. I used it for a bit over a year on a project we did for multiple platforms

Awesome, good to know that, and glad to be here

Houdini,3dcoat,Nuke are the three things we pay for, will use Maya when we work with Maya artists, but dcc is mostly 3dcoat-blender-houndini workflow.

I've tried to passthrough Behringer audio interface, as well as HX Stomp (to, of course, avoid dual-boot) and it stuttered like crazy. Maybe there is a way to make it more "realtime" but it's not the default, at least in VirtualBox.

Yeah passing through usb devices to a VM for audio seems to be a dark art like working with a bunch of analog equipment. Everything has to be tuned. I do understand why a bare metal windows and/or mac computer is always in a studio, one can skip the head ache. Even if main DAW is Linux.

VirtualBox is the worst VM software.

QEMU on Linux with kvm is gold.

> Windows VM

That's not wine, and I'd rather keep dual booting that running Windows VMs that barely can keep up. Have you tried doing music production inside a Windows VM before?

Yes Ableton, VST and usb. I have used the Coreweave windows VM with Nvidia to run everything audio and video, though haven't routed USB devices to it.

Cognitively it's easier to just buy a second PC for windows. But threadripper pro etc have so many cores and pcie lanes it's easy to run multiple OS VMs with dedicated GPUs at close to native speed in one box.

I have Windows only audio and 3d software. I ended up with a windows VM with GPU passthrough on Linux. It sits on its own m2 drive for the rare occasion I need to dual boot. So Windows has been become legacy software for me. (IClone and CC).

And Steam Deck is there.

But I think the desktop interface is legacy for anyone under the age of 25, I get a kick out of watching them navigate a desktop.

We do have a trojan horse with social security. Overnight we can become the largest single owner of global corporate stocks and bonds.

The half baked hardware comments are humerous, because pretty much any piece of software is half baked if we are lucky.

But have they hired anyone back?

Why would they, “AI” will be much better in 6 months!

Yes to this keep core base load in your own bare metal systems, use the clouds for what they do best.

My daily driver is Rocky 10, but my control plane is a Pixel 6 on the ATT network but I control almost nothing on that layer. It is why I have been moving most of my core workloads off SaaS and back to local.
