As soon as I heard Broadcom was likely to get VMware I started pushing clients away from it when I worked for an MSP; Broadcom has never had a good reputation when making acquisitions. I landed on XCP-ng and was quite happy with it, it helped I had quite a bit of Xen experience already. I do inhouse IT now for a fairly large company and migrated our entire infrastructure to XCP-ng last year. Our cost was going to be around 80 percent higher when we got the VMware renewal quote. XCP-ng with enterprise support is about 25 percent of what we were originally paying for VMware pre-price increase. Especially with the new XOA interface, it is quite modern and very easy to manage. XCP-ng can also provide airgap install options for SCADA/OT environments. There are a lot of full stack hypervisor options out there now, not just VMware and Hyper-V anymore. Broadcom seems intent on not keeping any but the largest few hundred customers that just cannot leave (yet).

This is the way.

This sounds similar to my issue with W11, which was not present in W10. I use a laptop with a docking station as my daily driver (Dell). Previously on W10, when I undock, all of my open Windows will be moved to the single built-in laptop screen. With W11, when I undock, the Windows stay on the now non-existent screens, and I have to mess around with the taskbar previews to coax the Windows back onto my only existing display. This functionality has existed since at least Windows 2000 and XP; not sure why it's an issue again. I keep hoping for a Microsoft or Dell update to fix it, but none so far. Bug reports and feature requests do not seem to get me anywhere. I have seen this behavior on a few different model laptops with W11. I have run W10 on this laptop before without any issues with Window placement after undocking, so it is specifically W11 exhibiting this behavior. I would have thought MS would have made the thing the OS is named for work, but I guess that is too much to ask for. Also saw a comment about Power Toys to tweak power settings. Power Toys also has a Window management tool that you can use to snap windows to predefined locations on the screen; very useful for a multi-monitor setup or if you have a monitor with a ton of real estate to keep things in a consistent location—definitely, a time saver if you are manually placing and sizing Windows regularly.

Second this. I deleted all the content I contributed to Reddit and then the account. Lemmy is the way for now.

They will probably just get a Jelly of the Month subscription now.

We need to just go to solid state storage...in crystals or something...no more of this mechanical crap.
