Man, you’re living my dream! I also have a windows machine relegated to gaming. Can you expand on using a VM when you want to use your computer? Is that a viable alternative? How is ease of use and boot up times? Do you use Linux on the VMs also? Do you see any performance issues in the actual PC when using the VM in parallel?
Most of my days are spent writing malware and studying and testing it to see how it infects a system and how to learn how to stop it I also study malware I find online.
When I say I use a VM almost all my time I don’t mean it as my actual “computer”
My computer is a 24 core threadripper beast with 64gbs of ram. When I study malware I do it strictly through a VM and when I’m browsing the word or YouTube I use a VM.
When I’m doing activities such as 3D printing and running my print farm I do not use a VM as it takes a lot of processing power and graphics power to run those programs.
I just like using VMs to learn about open sourced software and how it works and I like breaking and fixing things.
Cyber security is amazing but also sucks when you get a call at 3am lol
If you have any questions send me a message :D
Thanks for the reply. I hadn’t really thought of using VMs to create an additional layer of separation between me and tracking and profiling companies, mainly because running a VM on my bottom-of-the-line machine was a painful experience when I tried many years ago. I think I’ll try that again once I’ve upgraded quite a bit.
At the moment I’m stuck with a bunch of other responsibilities, but when I get around to it, I’ll drop you a message with any questions I have. Thanks again.
