First two are right on, but I haven’t been charged for an actual software update on the Mac in 30 years.

I did Gentoo in my 20s when all I could afford was garbage computers. I enjoyed the experience — whether it did or not, it made me feel like I was getting the most out of whatever I had, and I learned SO much about Linux.

DO NOT fire at those vintage Macs. They are not responsible for this.

How do you keep all your virtual machines up-to-date? Or are those containers?

Oh that’s cool! I thought virtio and such were KVM-specific things. I have never been super clear on the relationship between QEMU and the hypervisor itself, like where one ends and the other begins.

Is Apple’s tech going to be using KVM machinery then, or are you just saying that it’s possible in general?

Like, you can use the GPU on Linux…with Metal

I wonder if they’re going to allow GPU access from inside the VMs.
