Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Wednesday, 20-Dec-2023 08:20:58 JST Nazo @itsfoss The upshot of this is I finally got off my duff and started migrating to either VirtualBox or maybe qemu down the road. (For now just VirtualBox since it's the most like VMWare sans the crap and bloat.)
I mean I know this particular thing doesn't affect normal users like myself. Yet. But I guarantee they're going to get to that point eventually.

Really I had only chosen VMWare back in the day because it was among the first to integrate at least really basic GPU acceleration. These days I think they all do at least a small amount though.
