If they want jobs as a developer there are plenty. If they see NEETs that just play video games all day it's probably their own lifestyle choices that are at fault
I believe his complaint was with multiple projects, each one has it's own set of essential programs, and switching between projects means closing down one set and opening another
> Pengwin is also the first Linux distribution pre-configured and optimized to run specifically on Windows® Subsystem for Linux, a Microsoft-supported feature of Windows 10 and Windows Server 2019.
Yes. What kinds of optimizations make it optimized? This is my original question. Telling me the equivalent of "read the article" changes nothing when I've already done so and that it doesn't say what's been changed to make it optimized.
I've yet to carefully go through all 900 commits of with subject lines almost entirely of pull request #s, but one would think if whole repo's title was how it was "optimized" they could substantiate what they mean or what they did.
I'm not sure if/what they changed in the distribution itself, but tooling optimizations are in the list:
* Pengwin includes wslu, a set of useful open-source utilities for interacting between WSL and Windows 10
* Manage your Microsoft Windows and Azure deployments with PowerShell and azure-cli, command line tools for Azure.
* Enable/disable Windows Explorer shell integration.
* Configure experimental GUI settings, including a Windows 10 theme for your Linux applications, HiDPI support and international input methods.
* Create a secure bridge to Docker running on Windows.
* Support for many Linux graphical applications with no need to configure display or libGL in Pengwin. (Requires a Windows-based X server, such as X410.)
* Pengwin provides faster patching for WSL-specific bugs than any upstream Linux distro available on WSL.
I always have difficulties with drivers on linux. Never on Windows. Until they fix that I cannot use anything other than windows as my base system. I don't care if linux handles things slightly better
Difficulties with drivers in terms of quality, availability or both? Regarding availability (and often quality) the only real/sustainable solution is for hardware manufacturers (who I think you are referring to by "they") to improve their Linux support.
There's nothing to fix. The devices are either open and a dev has decided to write his own, or the devices are closed and the drivers are provided by their respective creators.
If it's the former, pay a dev, if it's the latter, use a different device.
There's nothing to fix. The fire is either of a type that may be extinguished and a trained firefighter decided to put this type of fire out for everyone, or the fire is unable to be extinguished as was the intention of the entity that started it.
If it's the former, find the correct firefighter, if it's the latter, use a different fire.
There's nothing to fix. The construction material is either of a type that does not spontaneously combust, and a carpenter can make you a fine chair out of it, or the material is the type to spontaneously combust, and if you choose to buy a chair made of that material you will soon find your pants are on fire.
If it's the former, pay a contractor to build you a chair, or make one yourself. If it's the latter, use a different construction material.
There is nothing to cure. The pathogen is either of a type that is curable, and a licensed medical professional can prepare a treatment regimen, or the pathogen will liquefy all of your internal organs within minutes, and if you choose to expose yourself to the latter pathogen, you will find yourself having a bad day very quickly.
If it's the former, pay a licensed medical professional or read online forums and do it yourself. If it's the latter, contact your nearest funeral home.
Yes, but you can run it in a VM. Microsoft could make it run in a container, instead, if they cared about your time. They might do it to make their Azure servers faster, but have little incentive to tell you.
I would say a more accurate distinction is breaking into someone's home vs trying to break into a military base. In the first case you're likely to get arrested, in the second they'll probably shoot first and ask questions later
Picking someone else's door lock is legal if they ask you to.
Picking someone else's lock, if it's not actually in a door and isn't protecting anything, is not illegal, even if they don't ask you to or give permission. You're just picking up a lock and fiddling with it, there's no trespass.
Picking someone else's door lock to burgle their home is illegal.
Handing someone a lockpick so that they can burgle a home for you is illegal.
It's like as if Manning copied the lock at the military base and Assange agreed to see if he can figure out how to pick the copy, but failed (or never even tried, we don't know).
