Joe Steinbring :thisisfine:When I run `wsl --install`, I get the error …WSL2 is not supported with your current machine configuration. Please enable the "Virtual Machine Platform" optional component and ensure virtualization is enabled in the BIOS. Enable "Virtual Machine Platform" by running: wsl.exe --install --no-distribution... and I can run `wsl.exe --install --no-distribution` to get around it, but I still can't install a Linux distro. :blobcatthink: <a href="https://toot.works/tags/WindowsServer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WindowsServer</a> <a href="https://toot.works/tags/WSL2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WSL2</a>

Feoh<a href="https://mastodon.social/@technotim" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@technotim</a> I really enjoyed your latest <a href="https://changelog.social/@changelog" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@changelog</a> interview on State of the Homelab!For what it's worth, I'm with you. I think <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Windows11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows11</a> + <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/wsl2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wsl2</a> is one of the most compelling developer desktop offerings out there today, and I think <a href="https://changelog.social/@adam" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@adam</a>'s perception that Windows is user hostile may well be an example of a larger trend I see in tech: People had REALLY bad experiences with Windows years ago and those scars carry over and keep them from experiencing what could be a huge productivity leap like it was for me.I really need to look into one of those mini racks! I have ~5 lowish power/small form factor servers and right now I've colonized a whole chunk of our tiny Boston apartment :) Going vertical could be a huge win :)

But I also have at least one customer with a VPN I can't get to work on Linux (Cisco AnyConnect), so I also need an internal virtual switch and then some <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/netns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#netns</a> magic to us the right network.

ferricoxideA couple months back, I bought an external (Samsung) USB SSD. It's a bit aggressive about spinning down for power-saving. As a result, if I want <a href="https://www.backblaze.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Backblaze</a> to be able to read it as part of its regular activities, I have to do (in <a href="https://evil.social/tags/WSL2" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WSL2</a>): <pre><code>while true do touch /mnt/g/BB-backup.touch printf . sleep 10 done</code></pre> Every few days to keep the drive online. Otherwise, I get the nag-email telling me "we haven't been able to <a href="https://evil.social/tags/backup" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#backup</a> your G: drive in a couple weeks" I can't actually <a href="https://evil.social/tags/cron" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cron</a> it out since the <code>cron</code> service won't run in the WSL instance (no systemd/dbus), but I could always replace it with a <a href="https://evil.social/tags/PowerShell" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PowerShell</a> script that I put into my Windows laptop's scheduler …But I fucking hate writing PowerShell. <a href="https://evil.social/tags/Linux" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a>

hyperrealThis is Emacs on WSL2. Does anyone know if there is a way to get rid of this ugly-ass window border? Or at least make it dark? It doesn't seem to use any X11, GTK, or QT styling. I followed this documentation to no avail. It would also be nice if this Emacs window used Windows 11 native windowing instead of whatever this is, if possible. <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/gui-apps" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/gui-apps</a><a href="https://fedi.hyperreal.coffee/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> <a href="https://fedi.hyperreal.coffee/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows</a> <a href="https://fedi.hyperreal.coffee/tags/Windows11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows11</a> <a href="https://fedi.hyperreal.coffee/tags/wsl2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wsl2</a>

We're trying to get a new release for a more relaxed <a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/hackathon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hackathon</a> next week. I should be able to help out, as I have some specific areas of expertise but the focus just isn't there.

FeohThank you <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/wsl2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wsl2</a> team at <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/msft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#msft</a> Today I discovered that you folks have been working hard on <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/wslg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wslg</a> - I can now run graphical apps from <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/wezterm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wezterm</a> and everything works like a treat!

Feoh<a href="https://oldbytes.space/@fluidlogic" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@fluidlogic</a> And the supreme irony? MSFT, the company SO MANY in the technical community love to hate, has been just GEYSERING money into <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/a11y" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#a11y</a> over the last few years.There's a really good reason that I as a partially blind engineer choose <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/windows11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#windows11</a> as my platform of choice, and it's not just <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/wsl2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wsl2</a> :) (Although that's a definite factor).

Feoh<a href="https://social.mochi.academy/@Ambraven" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Ambraven</a> The Windows ecosystem can be incredibly jarring for folks coming from a *NIX background.And sadly much as I enjoy using Windows as a desktop environment for my software development and platform engineering work, as a native target it's SUPER tricky.I'm still honestly pretty frustrated at the faff involved in getting "full fat" <a href="https://hachyderm.io/@neovim" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@neovim</a> to run there because it shells out to a C compiler for its treesitter extensions, so if you fail to run it from a command prompt with the special C compiler environment set? KABOOM.And oh no you can't add that magic sauce BY DEFAULT because then you're just inviting a malware problem.It's frustrating, and truth be told it's one of the reasons why I rely on the largess of others and enjoy things that are mostly built for me for native Windows (Like <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#python</a> where folks have done just BOATLOADS of work to make it work wonderfully) and live/work inside the <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/WSL2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WSL2</a> environment for most things I do.

Max LeibmanRealized it had been over a year since I played around with Windows Subsystem for Linux (and I hadn't even bothered with it on my Surface Go since I last reset it early this year), so I took it for a spin today. Linux GUI apps in WSL2 have come a long way. I remember it being a pain in the ass the last time I tried it (18 months ago?), but I installed Firefox, Nautilus, and System Monitor via apt, and VS Code from a downloaded .deb, and all worked right out of the box. <a href="https://beige.party/tags/WSL2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WSL2</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a>
