A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It does. I have 16GB on my Mac, and half of it is given over to a virtual machine running Linux.
Chrome (and 20 or so other things) runs fine on the remaining 8GB.
Interesting. How are things in the year 2033? Could you tell us about the technology you're using to communicate with us?
That's probably what the VM is doing: it's self-hosting a server running timemachined. timemachined itself is actually running out of a docker container that's running on the VM, but that's because by 2033 every single update, which occur daily, breaks the existing docker installation on a Mac. Which is honestly very similar to what happens in 2023, except it's every other day currently.
