If it works for you, I've found running some things as a VM works better than dealing with windows.

Admittedly I have a lot of hardware due to what I do, but I've got (multiple, but just one is relevant in this case) proxmox server set up with an extremely tightened up windows 10 build. I've removed pretty much everything humanly possible on the windows side, just installing enough for the applications I need.

I then have a GPU that's passed through to it directly (that machine is headless otherwise). So I'm getting all the GPU acceleration, but without using anything else on Windows, it stays slim and trim so it runs pretty well, and it's pretty light on ram use.

With the second DP input of my monitor, I come off a video switcher but you can skip that and go right off the GPU. Now you've got a lightweight little VM directly connected to your display. Pass through your USB device of choice (I'm assuming a controller here, but you can use a second keyboard/mouse or USB host switch if you want).

Personally I find this approach easier since I don't have to deal with all the memory gobbling nonsense on the windows side, I get to do my daily work in Linux, and specialty stuff that I just can't run in wine stays readily available.

BMD bought Resolve maybe 15 years ago now, but the support is not limited to BMD hardware. It was more of a way for them to ensure BMD hardware support in a video editor at the time. Personally I have their web presenter and an older model of their TV studio kit at home (long story), but I also have a variety of other hardware, all of which works just fine with Resolve.

I'm using Resolve on the regular for my VHS conversions, though some tasks would be easier with the premium instead of the free version, I just fill in with ffmpeg or other tools and move on.

Just FYI, the download will ask for an email/name/etc, but the download starts right away, so you don't need to actually give any PII out to get it.

They still sell laptops, desktops, and servers with Ubuntu pre installed.

I've used resolve for quite a few things in the past. It's an excellent editor, way more than most people will need/use in the free version, and exceeds most corporate editing requirements in the paid version.

Blackmagic Design bought it to have a video editing suite they could tie to their hardware, which I would call similar in design approach. It's inexpensive for what it does, works really well, but isn't the top of the line for broadcast.

Most corporate broadcast (think like a bank or something having its own small recording studio, rather than the major broadcasting companies) will leverage BMD at some point in their workflow.

Considering the way they presented what was obviously them trying to skirt the rules, it isn't hard to believe that CF did provide that info, and it just wasn't presented in this writeup.

Not that I have any love for CF, just saying this is a case of no one being trustworthy.

That is not a KDE issue.

I wasn't born when it came out, but I did get to see it as a rental in ~ 1987 or so, I was young so rough guess. It was well before the box set that came out in 1992 which I got as a gift, which is still with my parents in the gigantic VHS collection (Dad got a camcorder, we have so much recorded, I'm converting it all to digital but by bit).

So at home as a kid on a (by today's standards) small screen - a 25" RCA CRT TV.

They don't sell them online, but they do still sell them in stores. They only stopped selling some guns and some types of ammo.

Yep... It's permanently where it's at at purchase.

Which is fine, I don't store anything on there (Jenkins automations to build, local git repo on another machine, output goes to NAS), but it's ridiculous how much the upgrades cost.

If I didn't need a build target for iOS I wouldn't have bothered with it, that's for sure.

Or a mini.

I have an M2 mini I use for iOS builds, cheap enough for me to buy and stick in the rack to use for remote builds. I got that a year ago for $600ish iirc.

Nice edit.

As I said, we are done.

For one thing, that isn't what I said, is it?

Second, I'm not explaining why a brutal rape is awful. We are done.
