My eepc is also 32 bit with 2gb of RAM. I did Debian 12 with LXDE from the net installer and it works really well.

Talent, passion, skill, and a worthwhile cause, all coming together on display, beautifully. It’s so imprssive what people can make.

He’s very good!

This is almost 10 months of continuous use as a monitor spread over 5ish years.

My C1 which I’ve been using as a monitor has no burn in. Gray uniformity is not perfect and there are some minor issues with ghosting on grays but it’s still a better monitor for my uaecase than anything else. I assume newer models are even better.

I need to add Sam Altman to this picture. He always looks like he’s about to cry

Oh look. A life savings worth of DDR4

Edit. Not meant as a comment repy. This is embarrassing

This is so on point.

I get not wanting to compile your code. Its extra work and, if you’re already catering to a very thech-savvy crowd, you can let them deal with the variance and extra compile time.

BUT if you’re releasing your code for others TO USE and you don’t provide reproducible instructions, what’s the point?!?

I totally agree.

Also I just saw your user name and I started imagining a movie pitch in my head and laughed. Thank you for making my day

The OSX idea is very much an edge case for me. I’ve heard of it but not something I know much about.

I think I’m sold on NOT using HyperV. I will also keep it to one monitor because thats my current setup.

I’ll give it a try!

I work on remote and local machines and I feel comfortable on both. For this project, I have the advantage of all of my hardware being in my house. Latency wouldn’t be an issue over my wired network. Sunshine would allow me to game locally for sure.

I am very aware if the PCIE lane circus you have to go through on consumer hardware. I considered building a used/refurb EPYC system and even borrowed one from work for a bit. It was nice, but my build would have put me somewhere near $6000 at best. Hahahahh 😭

I’m going to try both ways. For most of my computing, I’d be happy to get 80% of my computing power if I get the convenience of not having to reboot across OSs and the ability to snapshot a VM state

I hadnt considered this. I was thinking that if I passed an audio device directly to the guest OS, I would bypass ASIO headaches. I now realize thats naïve of me.

I will try to post some updates as I Frankenstein this build

I will look into this. I’ve heard of qubes but only thought of if for security/privacy use cases

This might/probably will be the end game for me as well. Sunshine for remote gaming and ruatdesk/ssh for work.
