  if there's a way to mount SFTP as a network share in Windows (I doubt it), you'd do well to do that

  Can we run Steam with Linux® emulation in FreeBSD?
• 14:31
  hiya
  or what is the extend of emulation?
• 15:01
  duncan
  the steam client worked when I tried it (note it was 32 bit still), but I never launched any games except super hexagon
• 15:01
  duncan
  games which run on java tend to work mostly, like Minecraft

  vigumnov: i run plex inside a regular jail if that helps?
• 21:45
  SponiX
  vigumnov: why on earth would you run Plex with Linux emulation when there is native FreeBSD Plex
• 21:45
  vigumnov
  since they pulled hardware transcoding for freebsd
• 21:46
  vigumnov
  in 2023 or so, with the new client forced to upgrade to latest server
• 21:46
  vigumnov
  been running in a VM but it stinks

  That's unfortuate. My plex is also in a regular jail, but on a xeon so cpu transcoding is powerful enough for me
• 21:55
  SponiX
  Same here, 22 and 20 core Xeons

  any issues on FreeBSD with drivers?
• 22:01
  SponiX
  No, but my X99 system is like over a decade old. And it is hard wired networking.

  Everything works well with FreeBSD
