Although the best-before date had already passed, the chewing gum was still good.

Damn, that's a cool way to explain how that tech works in a chewing gum package

I’m confused, how exactly is this explaining anything? I’m fully aware of what a hypervisor is and does, but is the insinuation that the gum is VMs?

Package nicely mirrors this image from the pikeos site. https://www.sysgo.com/fileadmin//_processed_/5/b/csm_SYSGO_graphic_pikeos_rtos_hypervisor_c52d7a0f6e.png

There is one / to much, well it isn’t but the URL formatting isn’t working for me. 🥲

Interesting. URL is as copied from my browser. In any case, here is the website, and it might work better.
