@coriander brother, they are CLEARLY gayocats

@coriander im favouriting this post..... but only barely ​

@wallhackio @vaporeon_ bro,

@vaporeon_ so true

@vaporeon_ water and water and water water
water and water and water water

@compufox oh no! your tits are growing too powerful!

@vaporeon_ i think it came down to branding. the engineers at microsoft definitely knew better but the company was insistent on the incorrect name

there used to be a twitter account @gayocats@twitter.com with the display name “Gay Cats”. it was just a catposting bot. i would link to so many tweets from that bot a couple years ago that at least a one of my mutuals started using the term “gayocat” regularly. i eventually created a reposter bot at @gayocats befur the original bot creator created their own Official mastodon account after getting frustrated with twitter. i think that moved bot is down now though. i completely furget what the handle even was lol

@vaporeon_ ​

@monorail @coriander WSL1 was really cool though, it would run linux binaries natively on windows. with some hackery you could ever run the binaries directly from CMD!

@monorail @coriander i’m sad they gave up on the WSL1 way of doing things but i’m not exactly surpurrised either

@monorail @coriander WSL1 had a cool WINE-like translation layer going on but they just do VMs now

@monorail @coriander no it is actually literally just a virtual machine

@wallhackio @holly @monorail on glitchcat we encourage fucking around with git

@coriander @monorail the newer version of windows subsystem fur linux. it lets you install linux distributions within a VM that you can launch as an application. which is Certainly A Way to get a posix environment up and running on windows
