The OS situation is kinda funny at my workplace.

I work in embedded, where, because of the toolchain selected, we have to use windows, which is not something I particularly enjoy.

So I decided to run WSL. That worked fine for my awk/find/grep, but neither debian nor opensuse ship with a compiler out of the box... And the firewall prevents me from downloading them either.

Long story short, now I happily run a #NetBSD VM. Somehow it even lets me install packages, of which I only installed ninja, cmake and doas. I also did map a couple USB <-> Serial adapters.
And there it is now, my little "cobble together something real quick to test some other thing" machine, albeit virtual.
