Linux_Is_Best, to microsoft

Microsoft, quietly, has published a guide on how to download and install Linux.

No... Seriously... It is not a joke...

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linux/install

The article was published September 29, 2023 (9 days ago).

The guide provides every option available, too. Starting with using their Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), to using a Virtual Machine, and even on "Bare Metal" alongside Windows.

That's right, Microsoft now tells you how to dual-boot Linux. 🤯

@Linux_Is_Best @benbrown i swear to g-d i almost didn't want it to be great but WSL2 is really good.

the only complaint i have isn't the fault of $MSFT, it's because sometimes cpu features on my trashcan6,1 gets toggled off and i have to boot to recovery and set it again. also stuck at #Windows10 because no TPM.

i had to use #cygwin when i was using Windows for productivity and i would love to make someone use that if they say an unkind word about #WSL2 g-d dammit that was bad.
