    Due to the nature of Lemmy, nothing is ever truly deleted as it gets federated across multiple different instances.

    It may eventually sync across most.

    Deleting tends to only delete it on that instance, hence why when you reply to a deleted one, chances are you see it from your current instance’s cache. Or vice versa.






  • Chances are MS is still tracking you via TPM and/or hw/peripherals.

    I can’t not register Windows 11, because despite everything I try to erase my hardware footprint, it still ties it to my digital license.

    This goes as far as upgrading every single piece of hardware on my PC, and using an entirely different ISP.

    And no. I don’t use any Microsoft services on Win 11. I don’t use Internet in any capacity when installing. Nor do I use any cd keys for Windows.

    Everything the installer asks me, I answer “No.” to.

    This should honestly be a huge privacy concern but alas.

    Could you elaborate a bit?

    Isn’t Proxmox etc. “Gpu less”, as they only use tty instead of anything like a WM or DE?

    I’d prefer a “master” / hypervisor running a bunch of VM’s for different purposes.

    Whether they be for gaming, pirating, development, pen testing, home automation, porn, or anything else really.

    'Course I’d only be running gpu passthrough into a single VM at a time, can’t split a single GPU into 50 passthroughs yet.

    iGPU shares one monitor with the dGPU, but on different protocol, which from what I read online is supported.

    It only really needs output when I flick it open.

    So maybe it needs a KVM switch instead of trusting the monitors splits.

    Scenario 1. X11 “works”, wayland doesn’t. Trying to update NVIDIA drivers leads to boot failure.

    Scenario 2. Wayland works. Only on igpu. Only via HDMI. Only on one monitor.

    Scenario 3. Wayland works on Displayport. Doesn’t even recognize second monitor.

    Scenario 4. Everything seems to work. Trying to do GPU passthrough fails.

    Scenario 5. IGPU is hogging displayport, despite being connected via HDMI, thus preventing the DGPU passthrough on either HDMI or DP.
