I can help you set yours up like mine if you want!

But you'd need to make sure you have two graphics cards. I have the 3080 disabled from Linux until a VM starts, so it won't load the Linux desktop or anything. Even a CPU with integrated graphics works, but a physical GPU is obviously better.

I really like the Quadro series for this as its physically thinner, lower power, and has the performance around a 1060. They're on ebay for like $60

Depends on my needs, my desktop itself has a 8core @ 5GHz, around 50Gb ram, a Quadro and a 3080ti.

For gaming I'll usually pass through 6cores, 30Gb ram and the 3080ti to a windows VM, leaving 2cores 20Gb and the Quadro for my linux host.

sometimes I'll do more of a 50/50 split or if I'm just updating windows or downloading a game I'll only pass 2 cores like 10Gb ram and no gpu.

But if you mean how did I do the initial setup, any arch based disro will be the easiest (but you can do it on others if youre more technically inclined) by following this guide:

PCI PASSTHROUGH VIA OVMF

Ive done this process on so many systems I can do it off a fresh install in probably 30 minutes now.

Once the Linux host is finished, I install windows in the VM, strip as much bloat from it as I can, install my universal programs(Firefox, 7zip, VPN stuff remote desktop stuff, GPU drivers, etc)

For gaming, the best programs I've found are Looking glass to pass the VM GPU's video to a window on the client with no latency, and SCREAM audio for the same with sound.

Once that's all set up and windows is fully updated, I make a backup of that VM, and basically never open the original again. If I need a new VM, just clone that setup and everything's ready to go. I can rn clone the original setup, and use my private collection of interesting viruses on that windows VM without fear of it damaging anything.

I use Arch, but I have two graphics cards in my system and I run a stripped windows VM for any game that I want ray tracing or 4k in.

My arch setup has an older Nvidia Quadro card and can run everything on like medium settings, but my virtual machines have a 3080ti. I didn't want the wear and tear on my 3080ti just to watch YouTube or play indie games that don't need the horsepower, but I still want to try stuff like portalRTX or stable diffusion and the like that needs an enthusiast graphics card.

This to me is the best of both worlds. I can run the VM in the background so I can use my desktop(connected to the TV) as a media center and have cyberpunk playing totally hidden and streaming to my steam deck for ray tracing maxxed settings.

Hell I even play Half life:Alex VR in a virtual machine and stream it over wifi to my Oculus quest.

If your lack of tact prevents people from listening to you then fucking YES ABSOLUTELY

Look, most people aren't buying meat to fantasize about the murder of animals like youre implying. The fact you're saying that, weither you intended to or not, is putting the people you're trying to convince on the other side of an us vs them. That's not productive and youre just fucking annoying.

Most people buy meat because it's cheap. Its cheaper than plants because the meat industry is subsidized by the government. Its subsidized by the government because it's the easiest way to get reasonably balanced nutrition to the most amount of people.

If you really want less people eating meat, target those aspects.Not the end user trying to feed their family.

If you want real change, and aren't just trying to pick fights on the internet, wouldn't you rather be affective instead of just fucking annoying everyone, where it's always the wrong time, where youre downvoted everywhere outside of your life minded communities?

Seriously it's a different fight but read up on Daryl Davis. He's a black guy who gets people to leave the KKK. Do you think him picking fights with them would help? Trying to argue how stupid and hateful it is for them to hate black people? Pinning them in an us vs them?

He gets them to leave by befriending them. Showing them theres another way WITHOUT FORCING THEIR HAND OR CONVINCING THEM THEYRE SHITE FOR THE WAY THEY WERE RAISED. that's literally the least productive thing you can be doing.

Any post about it outside vegan communities gets downvoted to hell.

So maybe take the hint

I'll have two rule number 9s, a rule number 9 large, a rule number 6 with extra dip, a rule number 7, two rule number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda."

Sweet good to know.

Doesn't seem to show that for me on jerboa but ehh

Hey you're right!!

Thanks for the tip, I am actually subscribed! I thought It was because of my very very limited internet lol

One, it would be two but the second one has been pending for like 24 hours and I don't know what that means.

I mostly perfer to browse /all anyway and block what Im not into vs only seeing what I think Id like

If the instance is running in a country that doesn't honor DMCA takedowns then yeah it would be totally in the clear. I don't know if this one is or isn't, but the technology allows for it.
