Hyper-V Virtual TPMs, Certificates, VM Export and Migration | Microsoft Community Hub - "Virtual Trusted Platform Modules (vTPM) in Hyper-V allow you to run guest operating systems, such as Windows 11 or Windows Server 2025 with security features enabled. One of the challenges of vTPMs is that they rely on certificates on the local Hyper-V server. Great if you’re only…

Canonical's Multipass lightweight VM manager is now fully open-source, supporting Linux, Windows, and macOS. With Multipass 1.16 RC, all proprietary bits for Windows and macOS are now open-source. Discover how Multipass relies on KVM, Hyper-V, and QEMU for low-overhead virtualization.

As you can see in the screen cap the project has grown beyond just a one-man show

It is vital to understand that the project would not have been scaled in this manner & at this logarithmic rate, had it not been for important partners, who due to the power of the FediVerse, were quickly introduced to the project

Did not only gave words of interest they actually contributed with giving server space to boxyBSD.

If this is of your interest, and you take the time to read, analyze between the lines what has been said, you will learn a lot from this

If you are passionate about Proxmox like I am, you will love to read these kind of posts, because they've been systematically, logically and relatively simply formulated, so that it's digestible for the end user of proxmox all the way up to the diehard programmer who hacks in Proxmox code

Unhappy with #DockerDesktop on #macOS? Give #Colima a try!

It's a free and open #container runtime for macOS. It now supports the macOS #virtualization framework, #virtiofs for fast volume mounts and forwarding #inotify events for hot/live reloading. It can even provide a #containerd, #kubernetes or #incus runtime.

(I would've preferred #podman, as that's what I'm mostly using in production, but it still doesn't support forwarding inotify events on macOS)

Is it me or running VMs is still a pain in the butt on #ArchLinux?

You need to install Qemu which handles virtualization pretty well, but it doesn’t come with a GUI (still? really?). Fine, install Virtual Manager, but wait! You also need to enable a systemd service. Sure, done. Oh did you add your user to the libvirtd group?

Why isn’t there a single package that takes care of all of this out of the box? Or am I doing something wrong?
