    and we still can’t get vmware to run properly on our company laptops. current theory is p/e core scheduling shenanigans. it’s only been two years, what can you expect from the global leaders in virtualization and os.

    i swear, before i upgrade I’ll move my team to Linux. I’ve been mainlining debian for six years without issues, INCLUDING RUNNING VMWARE.

      Dude fuck VMWare honestly

      I’d bet any money they will go under in a few years, nobody is deploying a new vmware system after the shit Broadcom pulled

      Who knows, by then Broadcom may drive VMware into the ground too, making the whole thing moot!

        we use vmware because customers do. if they migrate - which they might because of the licensing thing - we will too. so it’s an actual possibility already.

        fingers crossed!
