You are like some geek from alternative universe who constantly says “BTW I use Windows”.

What are you even doing in Linux community? Considering switching to Linux, or looking for opportunities to tell everyone how Windows good Linux bad?

Please share the experience 😅

The presence of OPs device on our network would be ringing about a dozen alarms and we’d already have it quarantined with his account disabled because we would assume it’s been compromised. I’d then enjoy sitting in the meeting with OP and his boss as he has to explain to them why I disabled their access to all company technology and OP has to turn in his reports in a 3 ring binder.

That would be interesting.

Out of curiosity - what would you do if you detect Steam installed on corporate laptop? Would be interesting to hear your verdict. 😅

There are more:

1. Unable to completelly disable IPv6.
2. On fresh WSL2 install, the DNS is somehow broken (on corporate laptop). Had to update /etc/wsl.conf and /etc/reaolv.conf to fix it.
3. WSL2 ignores global proxy settings. Kind of expected, because Linux does not really support autoconf URL.
4. Already mentioned - unable to port-forward UDP ports from Windows.

I think that’s the most significant ones.

Also there are few nice features to know:

1. “explorer.exe .” opens windows explorer from WSL2 in a given path.
2. Windows drives are accessible via “/mnt/”.

Yeah. 😂😂😂 A lot of people are “intelectuals” who got their feelings hurt lol.

Can you clarify your question? 🤔

Another example is ability to disable PS1 script execution in Windows using group policy, even if you have admin rights. Some admin of admins decided that admins cannot do this lol. But copy pasting the same code to terminal is totally ok. Madness…

Actually it’s quite good. Recently they added SystemD services support, so all those guides “for Ubuntu” work totally okay in WSL2.

Well, take the step back - Microsoft implementing WSL2 shows that Microsoft agrees that Linux shell environment is better that Windows PowerShell environment.

But the way they implemented and this mind-blowing TCP-only port forwarding feature shows that they did a crappy job…

Same situation in the company I work at. Either HP laptops with Windows 10 or MacOS.

Colleagues who have MacOS constantly have issues with their software. Windows work quite okayish.

Reminds me of my older asus laptop - it had larger 512GB SSD and another intel optane 32gb ssd for cache.

I used to install OS to that intel optane drive (not enough for Windows lol), and used bigger ssd for /home.

With this feature - i think i could have a “single” disk for everything. :) so that’s another use case for you.

ULPT: Get simple cat traps. Then bring this cat to shelter.

Get ultrasound devices triggered by motion. E.g. from AliExpress.

My roborock S5 (vacuum robot) can be hacked and I can access it via ssh. Not alot of ram, armv7 CPU, but it can run docker. One time I managed to play internet radio over terminal, so it plays music and vacuums my home. Nice 😎

Lmao I remember. I’ve been there too! 🔥

“Africa with PVP expansion”

Then it’s probably a culture thing. In Lithuania people don’t talk to strangers, even in the mentioned situation.

favorite music artists going on tour?

In Spotify or Youtube they sound way better than live. Also I don’t have to stand in corwded environment and enjoy overpriced snacks & beer.

I just don’t go to live music concerts.

Well, that’s a hobby. Can’t blame you for that.

Firefox. This browser became solid one, have no issues with performance and plugins support are great. Also Mozilla seems to be against of what Google is doing, such as web DRM.

Also have Google Chrome installed as a backup, and mainly use it for things like WebSerial. Other than that - not using at all.

But it contains “Torrent” in it’s name, therefore piracy!!1!1!1!!

You would be banned in lemmy.world for mentioning this 😅
