Spent whole night fighting with my Proxmox and ginormous heat wave that my "lab" (silly calling it lab – just few old laptops churning like an old factory running on pure coal and sweat from child labor) isn't taking it too well. Spun a win11 in docker immediately after Wolfgang informed us about this project and loved it, but 31 minutes of extra content expanding on this idea while I actively try to make Game of Active Directory work on my aging (but loved) machinery – you, Sir, have earned my respect and my sub, for anything more we'd have to go on a date and since I don't do para-social relationships (too old, too tired, too married/divorced) – let's keep it civil and cool – you smart and innovative, me follow and get extra knowledge and me very very grateful.

Awesome! Great job man! Thanks for the guide. If we could then delve deeper into GPU passthrough it would be fantastic! Signed up!
