Somehow, somewhere, I've done something terribly wrong.

This is absolutely 100% real. I am ashamed at my actions.

bbLean is cool though.

Go ahead, sharpen your pitchforks. I've been learning windows, there's no pain worse than that.

I will be going further.

I'm getting a pentium 4-HT and a BIG ram upgrade for the machine soon. I'm gonna rip this Windows install apart and put it back together with bits I actually like. I wanna see how far it can go.

Also thank y'all for letting me shitpost a bit. I know it's not *nix but it WAS done in the spirit on unixporn.

Did you at least enable the Unix subsystem?

Looks like I'm gonna need to burn a windows 7 iso to grab the feature, it's not on 8+ according to the linked doc. I'll try to manually install it when I get my HT cpu installed in a few weeks. I do unfortunately need windows 10 on this device if it's gonna run windows at all, its at the literal furthest point from my router in my home that it can be so it needs wifi, and the only wifi card I have is an AX200 which only supports win10/11 and *nix..... I wonder if I could install the driver with Subsystem for Unix...
