HyperV4every1 version whateverthefuckitis

[-] witty_username@feddit.nl 12 points 1 hour ago

Let me guess. It won't support directx calls?

[-] infeeeee@lemm.ee 12 points 1 hour ago

It's a remote desktop client, so it won't. OP read only the title of the article

It's really more like Remote Desktop+. It has some additional "features" (blecch) on top of traditional Remote Desktop features.

Let's wait and see if it's actually more secure than traditional Remote Desktop.

Did they invent X11 Forwarding over the network?

[-] lurch@sh.itjust.works 2 points 20 minutes ago* (last edited 20 minutes ago)

X11 can render individual windows (Xclients) through the network on another Xserver since decades. With XPRA you can even buffer them, to move them from one Xserver to another or make sure they survive network disconnect. It's very cool, but not widely used.

Btw. when we get wayland forwarding over Network?

[-] potentiallynotfelix@lemdro.id 15 points 2 hours ago

waypipe exists, but it's still not perfect.

[-] Samsy@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 hour ago

Never heard about this. Thx.

Btw. when we get wayland ~~forwarding over Network~~?

[-] potentiallynotfelix@lemdro.id 7 points 3 hours ago

Yes, the ssh -X flag forwards it.

I doubt it's nearly as secure as OpenSSH though.

[-] lurch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 25 minutes ago

it goes through an SSH tunnel

Bottles and boxes are basically the Windows app.

[-] infeeeee@lemm.ee 8 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 25 minutes ago)

No, it's just remote. Remote desktop is now also called Windows, also the operating system you are connecting to is called Windows.

Gnome has relatively good rdp support, so with this you could use Windows (the app) on Windows (the os) to connect to you Linux machine running Gnome.

It seems deliberately confusing naming is working as expected, Microsoft marketing team should get extra raise.

Microsoft strategy 101. My “favourite” is the database called “SQL Server”
