Borrowing a GPU Over Your Home Network
from My Weird Prompts
Daniel asks a compelling question: can you expose your desktop's GPU as a virtualized hardware device on your home network, so a laptop can use it transparently? We walk through every layer of the stack — from NVIDIA's MIG and SR-IOV hardware partitioning to rCUDA software forwarding and VirtualGL — and explain why none delivers the plug-and-play fantasy. Then we discuss the practical alternatives: SSH, running services like Ollama and Whisper, and why the "elegant" solution may not be worth the complexity.
