Yep, I'm not allowed to do that. But I am allowed to use WSL.

@CppGuy @fesshole

That's sweet. Which distro of Linux are you running in it? And the security allows for Linux programs to be installed? That's definitely a solution!

@fesshole I met my former classmate about 12 -13 years ago for a beer and he was developer for the biggest add-tech company in the country - asked “how does it feel to be in the heart of darkness”… he did not understood the question;)

@fesshole The Minus-Freedom has gone viral, cause of #TechBros #greed.

Now if you invent an Exponential-Eraser of said Bros, let us knows.

@fesshole Well, ain't that fucking ironic & hypocritical, but not entirely unexpected.

@fesshole

anyone need further proof that online advertising is a waste of time, space, and resources?

@fesshole At previous jobs (as a web developer), it took me 6 months before learning we had ads on the website maintained by my team.

One day someone asked the team to change the script related to ads. That’s how I learned about it. I was shocked.

I use #Fedora — same as at home.

But #WSL seems to have a bug. Unlike the case where you run it on Fedora on bare metal or in a conventional VM, certain elements don't render properly, and so I've found i have to set an environment variable to disable the use of Wayland.

@fesshole Seems like a great deal of irony to me.
