I don't have suitable hackintosh hardware, basically just server-tier xeons and ryzens

Forget ryzen it's not worth it, at least for hackintosh

I have ryzen

So I can't hackintosh

Can't you do KVM Hackintosh and do some jewery to fake the CPU?

Might sound retarded but just a thought

yeah that's retarded, no way in hell I'd wanna work on that

That's all not worth the effort

I remember there used to be a program that could fake your GPU brand and model

As I said, I'd switch to Mac if I could run the OS reliably on high end hardware

Otherwise Linux will do fine

Generally I'm not too happy with Linux

But there's just no better alternative

I'd imagine my problem with Linux might sound superficial compared to yours but mine is that I hate the QT vs GTK shit

And how Linux as a whole can't seem to be unitied in some part

And when it gets united people start wars about it

See: systemd, wayland

Wayland topic is just stupid but I guess I could understand people that still preffer X11

Redhat was retarded, they started shipping wayland way too early and that increased sympathy towards x11

Nobody who had to deal with X11 likes it

Oh yeah isn't Redhat IBM now

Wayland is godsent

But they just couldn't wait for it to be stable

But unironically I feel like Valve might do some good here, they already did the Proton stuff, so if they start to focus on wayland too (doubtful) there might be some change here

But then you will have people who will argue about the change just like everything else in Linux

That's not the only thing that has to change to make me feel better about Linux

I just hate having to start a Windows VM in certain occasions because Windows sucks even more

That's my biggest pain in computing these days

Want Photoshop? Start VM. etc etc

I think I had some nice luck regarding Photoshop with wine

But I get the idea

I got a second GPU and more ram so I can run the windows VM at incredibly high speeds

Usually I commit 16 GB RAM, 8 Threads and 1 GPU to Windows when I start the VM and you don't even notice that it's a VM anymore from a perf point of view

So it usually just runs in the background all the time unless I actually need all 16 threads and all 32 GB ram

But still it's running two systems

Meanwhile I'll probably be fucked once I implement Docker into my setup 😂 👌

Docker has very little overhead, you won't notice at all

It's not real virtualization
