Do you begrudgingly use Windows or do you use Linux or something else?
Is there any other way?
To be honest, I can’t think of an operating system I’ve used that I haven’t begrudged.
I use MacOS and Linux.
I bought a Windows laptop, since it should be easier to take if there’s a fire or … other immediate emergency.
I got Mint running in VirtualBox, but it’s awkward. If I can get Windows working in Windows, and Firefox working in Windows, then I might try some wsl-integration tools which are supposed to get Linux apps to work more smoothly in Windows, and get a decent desktop environment in Windows without Virtualbox.
I just tested and it is working for me. I got my profile path from about:support
and put userChrome.css
and userContent.css
in there under the chrome
folder. The complete path is
C:\Users\brian\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\paud0g0p.default-release\chrome
Turned on the flag and restarted FF.
Okay. There were 2 different account folders, with the same name, at different locations.
I just set up wsl a few weeks ago, my first shot at using WSL2. It’s a piece of cake, didn’t take much time at all, and everything worked pretty well. I still don’t know how to keep it running without a terminal for when I feel like having servers there, but I’m not really worrying about that now.
I did something blasphemous / heretical just because I could. I installed the clone of the XP pinball game and played it. Running on Linux, displayed on Windows of a classic Windows game just felt wrong .
