"We at VMware want you to know that there is a new free version of Fusion available. But to download it we're going to make you play a game of 'Outguess the Dark Pattern' to actually figure out how to do the download. It's not that our web devs are assholes, they're just incompetent."

To me Oracle was always the most customer hostile company but Broadcom has now taken over with flying colours.
For the moment I am doomed to use Vmware Fusion.
When you try to download the updated version from Broadcom’s site you get into an infinite loop of entering your details.
Solution: Go to Techspot and Download it there. One click and verify the checksums published on broadcom’s site.

VMware Fusion passe en version 25H2 et virtualise macOS Tahoe sur les Mac Intel dlvr.it/TNjTjY #VMwareFusion #macOSTahoe

I appreciate free software, but this is a damn joke, Broadcom. The newest releases of VMware Workstation and Fusion are unable to check for updates, and Broadcom says it's intentional.

#VMwareFusion You can't port forward the same port number on TCP/UDP to one VM.
I.e. 3389/TCP and 3389/UDP collide in VMware Fusion.
#Parallels Desktop supports this just fine.

#Broadcom, fix your software.

Three strikes and its out. It looks like VMware's bridged networking is just too flaky. I now have two totally different VMs where the network goes deaf after some time. I'll try to use VirtualBox although I prefer VMware.

I should mention that the problem is only on my M4 Mac mini. My venerable 2012 mini runs a VMware VM without a problem.

#CaveatEmptor

I've seen articles re: 'free' copies of #VMwareWorkstation #VMwareFusion
- I haven't looked into this myself, but several of them implied 'free' customers would be required to create 'Broadcom accounts' in order to get the 'free' software...

This also implies that 'free' customers will have to agree to a TOS that requires agreeing to allow #Broadcom to spy on you, granting Broadcom other rights, or waiving your own rights

Mal. La respuesta es: mal.

Que montones de juegos no soportan el güindos para arquitectura #ARM.

Los emuladores (#Parallels y #VMWareFusion ) soportan aceleración gráfica con #DirectX11 en chips de arquitectura ARM, y los juegos de @steam piden #DirectX12, que no está disponible para el windows de ARM.

Anyhow, al menos puedo trabajar. Total, ni que tuviera ganas de jugar :awesome:

#Steam #Gaming #Windows11ARM #Apple #M3chip

Screenshot of a Steam community forum post discussing the lack of support for Windows 11 on ARM for the game Kenshi.Error message overlaying a video game background, reading "Failed to initialize DirectX 12. Graphics drivers may require an update, or graphics adapter may not be supported."
