Keto-mojo asked for their address and phone number, so they said they were homeless and lost their phone, and it worked

This has placed the prime minister in a political vise. If he commits to postwar Palestinian rule in Gaza and begins acting seriously to establish it, he loses the far right. But if he commits to resettling Gaza, he loses the Israeli majority and the international community. And so, as he has often done in the past, Netanyahu has chosen not to choose

Oh, he's chosen.

Also MFW my desire to love and be understood is thwarted by my fear of loss and the existential horror of being known

$375 million in today's dollars would cover (adjusted for inflation) the marketing and development of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most_expensive_video_games_to_develop

Don't go to https://massgrave.dev/ and follow the instructions there, that would be copyright infringement and would deprive an already insanely wealthy corporation of some funds.

In a lot of games AI opponents are called CPU players. I think that's what they mean.

If you're using a company device, a VPN won't help you. They could install a keylogger without you having any way of knowing.

Short answer: go ahead and install whichever Linux distro you like on Hyper-V and go from there.

Longer answers:

Linux works fine on VMs. There aren't really any caveats. Hyper-V should be fine. It's been a while since I used it but I remember thinking it was OK. I preferred it to Virtualbox; I think the Virtualbox drivers made some stuff flaky on my machine, but YMMV. I ended up shelling out for VMWare which I'd used at work. Some distros offer cloud images that are tailored for running as VMs, but unless you're running a cluster with a lot of VMs I don't think there's any advantage, any distro will work. There aren't any significant differences running Linux on a VM from running it on a physical machine.

As to which OS to use for a host, the commonly understood strengths & weaknesses of each OS apply the same as they do in other domains. Windows has better desktop hardware support, Linux tends to be more power-user friendly, etc. It depends on your priorities which you choose. Maybe the biggest factor is that Windows has Hyper-V, whereas Linux has Xen, KVM, and qemu. Either platform can use Virtualbox or VMWare.

P2V and V2P are definitely things. Searching for them online will return tools that will do this. Linux should be rather straightforward to transfer even without a specialized tool, assuming you aren't using a distro (or distro variant) that is specially built for VMs. dd should work like a charm. It should be possible to do invert the host and guest.

If that sounds like a whole lot of nothing it's because that's kind of the way it is with VMs. They just work.

Unfortunately, they do not care. They don't want people watching youtube, they want people watching ads.
