>>109574591It's step 1 in your transition.It's like when your favorite speedrunner starts wearing earrings while telling you it means nothing and it's a perfectly normal thing for a man to try out.WSL is how it started for me.
Troonux is transitioning onto a windows addon
linux slander is always from a place of insecurity both emotional and literal
>>109574604does WSL match bare metal performance though, i would wonder about penalties in running emulation layers for something resource intensive like ai or ml
>>109574591Corporate overlords often support Windows but not Linux. This is how many run Linux at work.
/g/ is a zoo
>>109574621So far you seem to be the only insecure person here
>>109574604same. i started with wsl ubuntu for the coding environment and linux support for certain repos/projects. now i'm using it full time as my main os. inb4 my distro sucks. it works well for me. i just put an ai agent in the terminal and tell it to fix or set up whatever i want.
>>109574717Same, though I went with Ubuntu. Gnome with some extensions is actually really nice. Ubuntu is a good OS IMO because it's well supported by everything and you find guides for everything. It might not give you cool points with retards, but I don't want some lone wolf hardcore adventure, I want something that works.
>>109574752>I want something that works.same. also i'm doing local ai stuff and i notice big speed gains in comfyui and with llama cpp on kubuntu compared to windows.
>>109574591I had my first dose of linux from msys2. with wsl it's even easier. it's only a gateway drug to installing linux.
>>109574657Top can't happen if bottom people exist. Also unrelated but is there an extension that automatically sage's whatever I post? So like it enters sage into the options field without me having to do it manually?
>ubuntuwell yeah, no shit, no one wants that shit bare metal
>>109574591This happens where I work as well. We use Windows because everything just works, drivers, peripherals, scaling, cuda, etc. everything is just ready and when we need to use linux for anything we just open a WSL instance and work for a bit then close it. That's the use of linux, it's a tool. Only midwits want to make it a desktop for whatever reason. I use linux everyday at work but I will never use it for my personal desktop
>>109575067hello saar vindows just works saar
>>109575086>hello saa--*krashes*
>>109574591WSL has trash performance so this is a retarded self-own
>>109574636>does WSL match bare metal performanceYes. Sometimes it outperforms bare metal linux
>>109575066Who the fuck is actually using Ubuntu?
>>109574636>does WSL match bare metal performance thoughit is bare metal performance. Windows 11 actually always boots as a type 1 hypervisor when VBS is enabled but even if it isn't, when WSL is enabled, it will start booting as such. Linux then uses virtio parav drivers for everything. The only time you'll ever be able to realize something is up is that moving files between NTFS/ReFS and ext4 partitions is very slow because it uses the plan9d for that because they apparently cannot be bothered to write a working NTFS driver for Linux or a working ext4 driver for NT.
>>109574636File access is hindered on WSL2, two file systems to go through. Prioritizes compatibility and some use cases over performance.
>>109574591Not transferring to Linux until it has its own SearchEverything that can index new files INSTANTLY like SearchEverything
>>109576173Someone will come along and suggest something, but I tried every option I could find, and none of them worked reliably. I don't think it's possible anyway, it works on Window due to MFT (Master File Table) which keeps tracks of all files on the volume.
>>109575051>doesnt into 4cx
>>109575423you sound like a brown liar
>>109575067> Windows because everything just worksSaid nobody ever who actually uses Windows. It needs almost 3x the tech support BigMacOS does, just ask IBM.
>>109575559nta but there are actually functioning NTFS drivers for linux, the bigger issue is that you can't really have two OSes concurrently operating on the same filesystemthey should probably learn how to use virtiofs instead of plan9d though
>>109576173>>109576202>EverythingMaybe it's because I've never used it but I don't get what it has over the various search tools on Linux that can do metadata and content indexing as well as filenames with instant search results.
>>109574591I started with WSL and later troonout to bare metal Linux. It's a good way to learn things before making a larger commitment.
>>109574657Those two images are the very definition of cherrypickingDidn't even take a real person just an idealized Greco-Roman bust lmao
>>109574591>Ubuntuabhorrent distro, who cares
>>109575439normies that want to try linux but dont know anything about computers.its actually a pretty good jump off point, especially for those that dont know anything
>>109574636>does <basically emulation> match performance>is Windows performantno
>>109574591>people who actually use Linux have dropped Ubuntu almost entirely (see pic)>Windows users only now start using itWindows users being a decade behind is not surprising. They only recently discovered workspaces and tabs in file managers.
>>109576268can gonverm. my hotspot stopped working randomly. no obvious configuration errors. turned out to be a group policy that prohibits internet connection sharing. but why? when? who changed that? nobody will ever know.
>>109574591what the fuck is a native linux PC's? tf does that mean
>>109576268This. I can't even update my work machine and I have to fake that it's up to date when we submit our PC details to the security department once a year. Windows is just that broken.
>>109574591Ubungtu has always been the Wangblows of Troonix, m'faggot. *tips my fedora and dildo towards you* And now the world is seeing it for themselves.
>>109574752>I want something that workswoman weak mentalityFaggot
>>109577975An OS is not something you should be fixing all the time, you unstable nigger faggot.
>>109574591>UbuntuDoes anyone still willingly install Ubuntu on their personal PC anymore?>>109574604that's... quite the analogy anon
>>109577975Only faggot here is you. Miserable white skin nigger.

>>109579062>ooga booga boontoo cope me no understan anythin but shitpost
>>109574591>Linux is just a Windows appYou can't make this shit up, lmao
>>109574591>bundle WSL with every windows operating system>it's ubuntu>woah guys! woah. ubuntu is growing faster as a subsystem on windows than "native" PCs?
>>109577331>AI overview
>>109579698for me, windows is just a linux app, confined to qemu with no network access. ^_^
>>109574657Reporting a thread does nothing unless it's 'p or nsfw on a blue board. All other infraction types are ignored.
>>109574591>you need to run a different operating system on Windows to make it usefuloh wow
Ubuntu so corporatized at this point, I don't even consider it Linux anymore. True story.
>>109581734>jay saves his flamewar thread from dying>>109581840>jay purges anyone who calls him outlike clockwork
>>109574591Isn't it a loss?Given the choice they will not install Ubuntu on their computer, but use it for work. Simply stating Ubuntu is bad but Windows is worse.Why is modern marketing so weird? even AI and ml is added at the end.
>>109577739Fucking contrarian asshole, you know literally nothing about what you're trying to shit on.Get fucked.
>>109579698Windows is just a bloated bootloader for Linux.
Nobody wants to use Ubuntu anymore, it is on a steep decline for years.
>>109574591niggers forgot the magic of WUBI, fuck WSL
