Press WinKey+Ctrl+D, then WinKey+Ctrl+(←or→). Windows already has multiple desktops.

Now get rid of those silly back slashes in paths, use bash as a non mentally deficient shell, change that sad kernel to Linux 6.8 and up, change your laughably sad NTFS to something sane, anything, even ext3 would do but take ext4, get rid of your ridiculous drive letters and instead of copying KDE, why don’t you just switch to KDE on X or Wayland?

Do all that and make it open and free, like all other actual operating systems and we’ll talk

Windows increasingly allows either slash for paths.

I read about this a couple of days ago, apparently some support was there since DOS 2.0.

I agree with everything but bash. Bash sucks I’m not going to lie, nearly anything else is better than bash

It’s pretty archeic with it’s syntax. A lot of its features have come about through feature creep. I mean it does a good job but it’s just hard to work with and pretty cobbled together. It’s showing it’s age. If you’ve worked with any large bash scripts you’d understand how much of a pain it can be

People are laughing, but it is annoying to open a Windows terminal, get a couple of steps into whatever you were doing, and find you need admin privileges for some bullshit.

Pressing up, home, "sudo " and enter is a lot quicker than opening a new command prompt in admin mode.

People are laughing because it took them more than 30 years to figure that out.

I unironically have thefuck installed in a few of my more frequently logged VMs. Incredibly convenient.
