What do you mean when you say 'everything runs on hypervisors'?

That may be true in the datacentre and the cloud.



Well, it's of course a slight exaggeration, but our desktop computers have had hardware support for virtualization for a long time now. Even our GPUs are getting hardware support for virtualization. Does it really have to be a problem any more that "your operating system has no drivers for this thing"?


Yeah, fair point. It's less and less relevant for sure.

But something like this lives in the hobbyist space where (I think) bare metal is still king.
