Yes, they have to file an S-1 with the SEC as part of the process. This lays out business operations in detail, including risks. For instance, here is the SpaceX S-1: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1181412/000162828026...

I've really come to enjoy Debian stable. It's going to take something significant to get me off Bookworm.

I used this the other day with some of my proxmox VMs and it worked amazingly well. Pretty nice to be able to pass my usb via spice instead if needing to plug it into the server.

- Paul Morphy

One of my favorite chess quotes. As an avid chess player, I can't agree more.

I think this should solve a current issue I have with virtualbox dealing with nested VMs. For example, nested QEMU VM running in a Virtualbox Linux guest causes the guest to lock up. According to virtualbox forum thread, only virtualbox-in-virtualbox nesting is supported, so to get around this I use virt-manager. But I think this kvm backend should solve it.

No kidding. Conferences are signing megadeals with ESPN, et al for broadcasting rights which gets split between the members schools. Look how quickly all of those Pac12 schools jumped ship when realized their commissioner dropped the ball and they won't be getting the big payouts. Decades of 'tradition' for schools like USC, Stanford, UCLA thrown in the trash over media rights.
