  • You will need to continue dual booting or you will need to use two computers. I promise there is no hope in virtualization for your use case. I have personally considered myself the exception to this rule and discovered everyone else was right all along. Save yourself the time.

    Pro tip: you will not find a CPU + Chipset that supports 2 GPUs at full speed. If you think you have, read the specs closer. You may also throw away your M.2 bandwidth as well. If you can afford an enterprise CPU with enough PCI-E lanes, you should just build two computers






  • The author is an egotistical moron and you should save your time and avoid reading this article. As clearly nobody in the comments has. They just devolve into crying about how important they are, admit heaps of fault and hand wave it as not their problem, and then spout conspiracies about why their account was deleted.

    Maybe… just maybe you could have just verified your account in time as you were contractually obligated to do. 3-4 business days with 5 days warning… you’re just incompetent no matter how smart all your Ruby friends and “free AWS consulting” makes you feel.

    This moron literally tried to insist that the premise wasn’t that he put all his eggs in one basket because he had “multi-region replication” and claimed independence from US infrastructure.

    News flash: AWS is the same company, and that “multi region replication” is AWS replicating their data, not yours. These are features of their platform that underpin their SLA and SLO contracts they signed with you, not YOUR use.




  • Your first mistake was switching to the dumpster fire that is matrix.

    You can use XMPP with e2ee with more adventurous or likeminded peers. You can install some bridges to the services your friends want to keep using. Most competent xmpp servers can get you chatting (with XMPP) within 5-20 minutes (if you have no issues wrangling DNS and certs) and it’ll likely do p2p voice/video calling with e2ee right out of the box. These are incredibly light programs you can run on small VPSes. Try all the client programs you can trust, use whatever you like.

    Use movim and Libervia with your server. Libervia can bring the ActivityPub to your XMPP clients. You can do anything you want to, as privately as you can. Enjoy content syndication with pubsub and atom. Interact with the wider fediverse on your own terms.
