I remember spawn installs! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spawn_installation - games came with the ability to install multiple multiplayer-only copies so that you only needed one copy of the game to play. This was inv

If it's for a corporate environment then it is being centrally configured anyway, so can just be installed from a different user? The goal posts definitely seem to be moving over the course of this thread?

Almost certainly; I still have CC on a ticket from a few years ago that one of the literal steps in the reference manual (teaching --switch-profile) was extremely misleading, didn't work, and actively broke your ability to continue wor

From the prompt leakage it looks like it is allowed to initiate web searches and integrate/summarise the information from the results of that search. It also looks like it explicitly tells you when it has done a search.

Hyperkit is a hypervisor. Virtualbox is a hypervisor. Hyper-V is a hypervisor. VMWare products are hypervisors. They are all hypervisors, a hypervisor is just the platform that manages the virtualisation (which is a CPU feature). What chang

Yep, purely malicious, no plausible reasons at all to reduce peak power drain on old batteries, in fact - batteries only get better with age! If we repeat this lie long enough we might believe it ourselves!

No, it’s not being pedantic when you are using terminology in a confusing or incorrect way that leads to it being unclear exactly what you are complaining about. What do you mean by “classical virtualisation methods”, actual CPU emulation s

Different audiences. A Changelog is read by the users of your software, the commit message by the developers. It's rare that a commit message is suitable for both.
