what happened to luke's setup video thing?

Ashleyyyy

i remember a WAN show where luke said he wanted to run a machine on Linux with a Windows 10 VM that had it's own gpu or something and use one monitor for Linux and one for Windows. 

 

where did that idea go? something like that is actually pretty easy. i did that exact thing yesterday so i can run games on a Linux machine using a Windows VM.

it took me about 6 hours in total to set up, and i've never setup something like this before.

it seems like my pc is doing exactly what luke wants. i have Linux as my host OS, and a Windows VM which has a gpu allocated using pci-e passthrough...

Wasn't that what the collab with Wendell was for? Or did Luke specifically say that he was making a separate video about it?

If you need any more convincing, Steam has launched tools to allow you to play non-linux native Steam games on Linux (basically WINE built in to Steam).
It's a good time to be jumping on that penguin.

Windows 10 is too buggy for me. it annoys me too much to use as my main OS.

i spend like 99% of my time playing Blizzard games. used to run Linux back in the early days of Ubuntu and didnt have many issues back then but i just kinda drifted back to windows for reasons i can't remember now lol (probably Nvidia driver woes back in early days). would probs check it out again but would have be be something annoyed me like crazy to make the jump again (I'm just super lazy now)
