We can all say what we want about Windows…but sometimes you gotta admit when the “worse” choice is actually a bit better

For background, I’m working with a friend to make a hobby project similar to tmux. Windows’s APIs seem way nicer for this
- I can nicely ask a Windows console to start sending me mouse events rather than `printf("\e[?1000h\e[?1006h")` and pray the terminal emulator forwards events
- Termios. I feel like whatever Windows has is just better than termios. Hard to put into words
- Slightly unrelated but Windows actually figured out mandatory file locking too?
- I’ll take Windows docs over man pages any day of the week

Linux is great because it’s free, open source, and respects my privacy and freedom, among other things. But Windows…at least in this area, seems to have a technical leg up

people be like “yoo my old favorite show is getting re-aired!!”

dude. it’s a cash grab. they’re so out of ideas that they’re defiling graves for money and milking cows to the bone and then some. i get that you liked the show but don’t encourage this behavior.

In other news, #Ollama is pretty neat, try it out if you have a decent machine. Hearing GPU go brrrrr is funny
