Hi, I'm using a MacBook Pro 2018, and I'm dipping my toes into virtual machine, tried VirtualBox and then moved to QEMU with UTM after some recommendation on YouTube saying KVM is just better.

However, my Windows 10 virtual machine created with UTM is so slow and laggy. Then I tried the Parallel Desktop, which is propriety and the performance is so much better. Why is that?

I don't want to use a propriety paid program for VM, so I want to ask how to improve performance on UTM or any open-source alternative that gives the performance on par with one on parallel desktop.

Thanks for your help!

    Today I wrote a script to quickly search, delete and add new tmux session with the power of fzf. The script The --bind flag of fzf took me quite some time to debug because of many escape backslashes I needed to add. #!/bin/bash # ~/.local/bin/tmux-session-manager FIND_DEFAULT_COMMAND="tmux list-sess...

    I already posted this on c/commandline but I think it's more suitable here.

    Are you replacing Reddit with Lenny?
  • I just hope lemmy instances are more searchable like reddit. That would kill any usage of reddit for me for sure

    jdhao.github.io Fuzzy-switching Tmux Sessions with Ease

    During my work, I use multiple Tmux sessions to manage different projects. When I create a new session, I usually give it unique name so that I know that the project is about via the session name.

    I found this post really helpful to anyone who is using tmux
