  • You know what is wrong, is that you come along & talk about how no one wants to use virtual machines because it is difficult. I just got done saying someone would have automated the process. You act like no one would have the choice but for it to be cumbersome & difficult. That is called a tiny brain thought process…

    They can’t do it right now cause vGPU is not supported on almost all consumer cards. There is absolutely a “root” layer BTW, in this case it would be the Linux kernel. It is far more technical than computers & then Windows “pops up.” Seriously, it is obvious you have no clue what you’re talking about, yet you’re here spewing false information, for what purpose?

    People are waiting on the sidelines for a better OS, where they can feel less invaded by Windows bloat & invasiveness but where they can still play their games & run their Windows apps, which Wine doesn’t support everything. Thinks like Adobe products or Office solutions, a lot of users rely on these for work. Proton doesn’t solve everything. I appreciate optimism, but then there is also the real world.

    Consider your assumptions, that you believe developers are so dumb that if users could use virtual GPUs on consumer cards, that developers wouldn’t be able to automate a solution that makes it simple.





  • The video card monopoly (but also other manufacturers) have been limiting functionality for a long time. It started with them restricting vGPU to enterprise garbage products, which allows Linux users to virtualize their GPU for things like playing games with near-native speeds using Windows on Linux. This is one of the big reasons Windows still has such a large marketshare as the main desktop OS.

    Now they want to restrict people running AI locally so that they get stuck with crap like Copilot-enabled PCs or whatever dumb names they want to come up. These actions are intentional. It is anti-consumer & anti-trust, but don’t expect our government to care or do anything about it.
