Me too. Thanks for the archive link. As a CF user myself maybe the owner did set the level too high?

This is SSH into a remote Linux VM that has the GPU attached.

This. I was ready to be impressed if author had written some software abstraction layer that wrapped a remote GPU in a virtual device that could be used by existing programs running on the local CPU. But there is no novel software at all, they're just remoting into WSL on the other machine.

Same, I thought it was about some cool network tunneling that made the GPU look like native hardware on the Linux host.

Same error. Might be a false positive DDOS detection.

>One idempotent PowerShell script does all of it

Could you share this script?

Also how is your experience with actually using the VM? Can you get most/all of the GPU resource? Is it fully passing the GPU through?

Running Linux bare metal on that PC would be much better and make the whole process at lot more transparent. Most games that don't rely on some kind of kernel anticheat (effectively, a rootkit) just works.
