I just compiled rc2 and VMs without passthrough are fine now. But my main VM running Windows 10 with GPU, SATA, and USB passthrough dies immediately and...

Well, KVM was completely broken in rc1, so this isn't good news.

I'd hoped to see a lot of work on KVM because all I got with rc1 was an...

I held on to my old FX 6300/990FX system all the way up until Zen2, when I purchased my current R7-3700X/X570 system.

Needless to say the...

[muncrief]

Oh cool, I never heard of that. I'll check it out. Thanks....

[muncrief]

I need Proton to run Destiny 2 so I can move my R9 390 back from my Windows 10 VM to my main system. It's a bummer having to move it for one game

I've been very disappointed by Firefox over the last few years, but still use it.

Mozilla abandoned backwards compatibility for the promise...

I don't like Rust.

In fact I buy special paints to stop it

Windows 8 and Windows 10 introduced what I call "The Age of Convolution."

This is the time when simple and direct point and click...

[muncrief]

Okay, now I'm confused.

And anyone who says anything along the lines of "Oh gosh, how surprising" will be banned by Michael. Because...

[muncrief]

Well, performance depends upon how how the architecture is implemented, how threads are scheduled, and whether or not some are placed on tertiary threads...

[muncrief]

Ha! No, I'm a retired embedded systems designer (hardware/firmware/software) and know the difference between the differing Zen architectures and their...

[muncrief]

I moved my R9 390 to my Windows 10 VM because my son said he wanted to start playing Destiny 2 with me, and unfortunately I couldn't get it to run under...

[muncrief]

I just compiled it from the torvalds git and am running it now under Manjaro. So far so good, and it's great to have the built in NVME temps now without...

[muncrief]

Well, while I love old hardware like this because it's from back in my heyday, I'm not so sure it's worth spending development time on supporting such...

[muncrief]

And don't forget Nvidia does everything they can to prevent consumer GPUs from running via passthrough on KVM. You have to jump through hoops to do it,...

[muncrief]

Oh lord.

I had a hard enough time drinking 4 bottles of wine every time I played a game. Now I have to drink 5?

Doesn't anyone...

[muncrief]

Because I'm an embedded systems designer in my 60s and have watched Intel financially rape consumers whenever they had the opportunity, for decades. I...

[muncrief]

Yeah, I thought it sounded a bit too good to be true that it would happen with Zen 3, especially since the design is supposedly done and already out the...

[muncrief]

If Zen 3 really does implement SMT4 I'm going to have a "Sayonara Intel" party.

It's awesome watching a greedy immoral company...

[muncrief]

Well, since Intel poached AMD's chief architect Raja Koduri and built their cards off of AMD's technology I have no doubt their new graphics card will...
