I'm curious... could you run a virtual machine inside a virtual machine?
I'll have to try this with VirtualBox. I know there are better software out there, but I'm not gonna spend money on Vmware just for a silly idea I came up with after taking a shower.

@alyx VMware is free for noncommercial users. But it's also not Libre so why even use it
@igeljaeger
Really? I haven't looked into it in forever, and I just always remembered it as being $$$. Maybe I'll looked into it at some point.

@alyx I did try it out on Linux but the installation process is retarded don't waste your time
@igeljaeger @alyx last time I tried to install vmware the installer just didn't work, stick to foss qemu+kvm (gnome boxes) or virtualbox
@phoenix
I've been wanting to give qemu a try, but VirtualBox has been so perfect for me, that I never really lacked any features, so why fix something that's not broken.

@alyx @a7 @igeljaeger @phoenix Install windows 8.0 like a proper degenerate. Commit to making an ass of yourself!
@VD15
I would, but I no longer have a 8 license. I upgraded that one to 10. I still have several Vista licenses I think.

@alyx @a7 @igeljaeger @phoenix Wait, you don't pirate your windows?
@igeljaeger
Technically yes, but the windows software is sometimes just plain better.

I don't judge one's OS.... unless it's OSX. Those fuckers can burn in hell.

Windows literally has a Linux subsystem these days. So not really true anymore.

@VD15 @alyx @phoenix @igeljaeger emacs
@a7
Isn't emacs supposed to have an insane learning curve? Or at least that was my understanding from what i've heard.

@igeljaeger @a7 @phoenix @alyx I use nano when pico pisses me off
@alyx @a7 @igeljaeger @phoenix I have also yet to see emacs's debugger or editor come close to what VS has to offer.
