It's mostly audio related hardware/software and the general fear/paranoia of needing sth unavailable in the future... But that day is coming... It's just a matter of time :)
try to use it for your private daily driver on a different machine or dual boot.. (: you can the run a virtual windows. use a desktop optimized distro like arch and there are no driver issues.
I show everything in the second part of the series ua-cam.com/video/BOSDJiaU-uI/v-deo.html You install an Xserver on windows and configure your WSL instance to send all the DISPLAY stuff to it.
Audio-Technica BPHS1. Please note that this is a professional broadcaster headset and it therefore has an XLR output instead of USB. So you would need an audio interface which would convert XLR to USB. If you have more questions about it feel free to hop on discord.devinsideyou.com Cheers and happy coding! :)
Hi, Thank you for the video. I am a newbie to this. Have installed using Ubuntu on WSL2 on Windows Terminal with zsh. But I find that there is gap/space on the right hand side, bottom of the screen and the zsh screen does not cover the entire terminal window edge to edge. How could we fix this. Is there something I am missing . I have noticed the same when I use the bash shell as well.
I think it's a windows terminal issue. It might be the space for the scrollbar, which might not appear before there is enough text printed. Play around with the settings. I usually disable the scrollbar entirely. You could also play around with padding on the left so that it at least looks symmetrical. I'm slowly switching to alacritty. It finally became usable enough on Windows. I still have some issues with it and it doesn't have ligatures but it's almost good enough for me to switch at this point. Cheers!
Cool! Really thorough explanation! The bent on UA-cam! Btw do you happen to know a way to stop all WSL processes with simple command, and don't run it until explicitly said to do so? What about docker for windows? I know that it's a power hog. I consumes all the recourses, on my old hardware I couldn't even properly move mouse cursor after I had started a docker container. Is there a simple way to stop all the docker-related processes? (without reboot) For instance - I started docker container, used some commands in WSL2 and then want to play some computer games - let's it be The Witcher 3. How do I stop all that junk that wsl2 + docker creates to make the game playable? Is it even possible?
Thank you for your kind words. Probably what you are looking for is "wsl - - shutdown". Also check "wsl - - help". Who knows what they will add in the future. Cheers! :)
Still a Homestead/vagrant is a better solution than wsl2, so many little issues happening with wsl2 at least when it comes to development. With homestead i can setup a php version project, i have a full linux box same as the one you would get from Linode or digital ocean. In my case the thing that is keeping me from going back to windows is the poor development experience it offers.

At 25:50, regarding the default WSL: in the verbose output, the default is marked with a star :)
Love your shortcuts, very useful.
For text editing?
@@DevInsideYou Not for text editing, but to get to screens instead of clicking here and there .
Right. Yeah it's the default Microsoft workspaces shortcuts.
Thanks man
Nice video mate
Just out of curiosity, what is keeping you back from using Linux full time? I'm guessing it's some unsupported software, or maybe hardware.

How were you able to run Sublime from the WSL on to Windows? Can you describe your approach?

What headset are you using? It sounds great.

Why all colors appear washed out?
Not sure what you mean. They look fine on my end.

@@DevInsideYou does it also shutdown docker for windows?
Probably not, but I've never used it. Let me know if you try it out.
