ehh, tried using it . . . and a

failed to create network winboat_default: Error response from daemon: all predefined address pools have been fully subnetted

happens. I’ll create a github issue, but at this point, I could have installed a full windows vm in less time than I spent troubleshooting this issue . . . so there’s that

the copyright police have no power on the open sea of the internet. They’d have to shut down the internet itself before copies of windows could go away.

it runs a real copy of Windows
then just run windows

umm, running windows in a container is still running windows so . . . . you would still just be running windows

A lot of music production software doesn’t rely on GPU acceleration. There’s also proprietary bullshit like software that controls specific hardware, like GPU control software, MIDI devices and other random devices like things for RGB control or printers. Oh yeah, and tax software, to do taxes and whatnot, most of them are windows or mac exclusive, so that would come in handy too. I used to run a full-fat windows VM for things like these, but winboat might actually be a more tidy solution.

There’s plenty of examples of software that either will never be created on linux or proprietary bullshit that devs simply can’t be bothered to reverse engineer for linux.

glad more people are using Arch-based distros! I finally installed arch (btw) without the archinstall script, and I must say, the more people that can potentially feel the sense of accomplishment that I felt when I got my display manager and window manager set up the way I wanted, the better!

good on you, NVIDIA drivers are very decent these days, on wayland in particular. Glad to see someone rocking an Xeon chip, they are great chips.

And I just learned that CachyOS is based on Arch! I just began dual booting fedora (nobara) with arch, but went with river as the wayland compositor, because I heard good things. KDE is a great DE, keep learning linux, it’s a lot of fun!

this is awesome! I’ll have to test this out because gaming with the daughter has been limited to games that support it natively. I wonder if this can work with emulated games too?

Overcooked, Liars Bar, Ready or Not, Schedule 1, Elden Ring, Jackbox, etc . . . . . All work great as multiplayer titles on linux. There’s a great trove of fun games that don’t require kernel level anticheat because the the community of players isn’t as toxic.
