It’s a bit advanced, but I have a GPU in my server that doubles as a home theater / couch gaming thing. I PCI passthrough the GPU to a windows VM where I get near baremetal performamce.
It runs ontop of proxmox and has a bunch of containers and VMs for my other stuff.
Currently, the linux part is headless, as in I don’t need a screen for the linux stuff on there, but it’d be a matter of hooking up the onboards graphics to another monitor input.
I like the idea because unlike dualboot, it all runs at the same time.
My other desktop’s mobo has issues with vfio and iommu groups so I can’t really do this on that other machine, but for my next build, good iommu groups will be a deciding factor.
I’d love to have a similar setup for my desktop and just switch monitor inputs or KB/mouse USB switch between both.
Most of the transphobia garbage I’ve seen lately was from newish reddit refugees not understanding they’re not on fashdit anymore
