Muscle memory is causing all kinds of problems.
If I’m stuck on a windows machine, one of the first packages I try to install is git-scm.org’s BASH.
It’s not actually Linux, but it’s got a command line and enough programs to really help get work done.
There’s even a portable version if you don’t have admin rights on the device
Yes it’s awesome, I use it with Microsoft terminal for tabs + themes, thanks to that I still have to learn how to use powershell
Why not just go full WSL?
I used WSL for a job and it worked fine. It’s kind of a weird VM that doesn’t really integrate with the host OS fully, but it works for many use cases.
Git BASH has more direct system integration and hardware access than WSL, though it’s been a couple of years since I had to look at WSL at all. Hopefully they’ve improved the integration over time.
(neo)vi(m) supports multiple platforms including Windows, so no worries :)
Dear sirs, I call bullshit! There’s no \n after the :wq!
Dude just stick WSL on it. Makes the Winderps somewhat less torturous to deal with, though it’s not perfect because it’s still virtualized. Also your container performance is gonna absolutely suck due to the required virtualization layer.
WSL2 is pretty good. I get better performance running emberjs than my coworkers stuck on Mac do lol
I mean, yeah. Modern MBPs are all ARM architecture now, which introduces another translation layer into the virtualization.
You should have a talk with your boss about NIST keypair :x
What’s wrong about it?
I installed Nix on WSL and then used that to get home-manager and thus my zsh and neovim configs working on Windows
That’s what saved me too but I’m still stuck with unpredictable crashes, 150GB of HDD / 8GB of RAM lost in the void and bullshit ads for copilot in the lock screen …
Pretty sure vim is available on Windows. Visual Studio Code allows vim actions.
Can you run in a VM? Use WSL?
Cygwin ftw
Word. First thing that gets installed by me on any windows install.
The reason I have a “ls.bat” batch file on my Windows PC and a “d.sh” script in linux. Both added to my path, of course
Powershell has ls and other common linux commands built in, try it.
Consider using AME playbooks to make your Windows installation sane.
I don’t know why but this gave me the idea of running meterpreter locally lmao
I installed windows on an external drive for gaming. Now my arch install is stuck at a start job for some drive, wich causes it to time out and not boot completely. Couldn’t be assed to fix it yesterday.
Also i installed nvim in windows for exactly that
Why do you feel the need to tell us?
Made me smile. It’s good with me.
