Now that you can get espresso at mcdonalds, is there literally any reason to visit Gordon Ramsay's ever again?

Why would you want bash on Windows?

I buy frappuccinos from McDonalds and I see no reason to ever visit Gordon Ramsay's.

kys

>>56463353
Why drink an inferior coffe made by me when i dont have the equipment and ingredients that the coffe shop has and buying the tools/coffe still not free

Of course there are people who make much much better coffe by themself but that a pretty small number of coffe drinkers, not retard plebs like you

>>56463247
for literally any coding other than C.

>>56463353
I use instant coffee.
I'm just too lazy to make espresso and blend it with chocolate ice cream.

>>56463392
At that point you might as well just run a real Linux environment.

>>56462990
dude, cygwin was pretty much the same thing, windows is still shit

>>56463377
well I mean you are on a technology board

>>56463416
Cygwin is shit though

>>56463413
Or Visual Studio

>>56463421
"technology"

>>56463416
Better than lonix

>>56463413
No point of using linux

>>56463416
this. or busybox. you could even install KDE. that doesn't mean shit, windows sucks and will always suck

>>56463439
>No point of using linux

Unless you want to seriously get work done outside of .NET, sure.

>>56463450
lonix is irrelevant like it was before and will be in the future

>>56463473
Depends on your definition of work I guess, seeing as Linux doesn't really have a suitable replacement for Office yet...

>>56463510
I'm not sure what your argument is here. You said there's no point using Linux. I said if you want a serious programming environment then it's basically your best option.

>>56463512
Tell me what uses have linux for an avarhe desktop user thats better than windows

Yeah, for powershell since linux has powershell

there never was a reason OP.

>>56462990
if you want to use shit like tensorflow you won´t have gpu support
which just proofs that this is not much better than using a linux vm

>>56463545
if you were a programmer, you'd know.

>>56463741
I only program in codeblocks :$

>>56463787

codeblocks in windows sucks.

It's not analogy. He is applying your reasoning to a different subject to demonstrate that your reasoning is flawed. Analogy is just a teaching tool and has nothing to do with that.

>>56463810
Good enough for me

>>56463820
Isn't this also what a analogy is though?

Windows botnet.

Nice try, Microsoft paid shills.

>>56463820
>>56463859
yeah, that's an analogy...

An engineer will use which ever operating system to satisfy a need in the most efficient and effective way possible.

Linux and Windows will work in their own ways. OS X will have driver problems. /thread

>>56463859
Here's what google has to say about it:
> a comparison between two things, typically on the basis of their structure and for the purpose of explanation or clarification.
Analogy is used to teach things and makes no effort to prove/demonstrate that the comparison even makes sense. The pupil is supposed to just believe it.

Here, though, someone presents his reasoning, and to demonstrate his reasoning is flawed, it is applied to a different subject, leading to contradictory results. That's no analogy. That's proof by contradiction.

This is going to come off as advertising, but has anyone ever heard of this:
http://hamiltonlabs.com/Cshell.htm

My lab proctor next quarter owns the company, I'm kind of curious how good it is.

They make quite the bold claim:
> Completely bulletproof. Will not crash, will not hang. Ever. Runs on any 32 or 64-bit version of Windows ever made. Still the fastest. Still the best.

Also what's the difference between C shell, power shell, and bash?

>>56463903
It's expensive for a fucking shell.

Build an OS which works for me and not a service which works for them ?

>>56463903

The write up for that sure sounds sexy, although

Kind of implies it hasn't been updated in a couple years.

I'd also be interested in user opinions. Any crack of it uploaded anywhere? Asking for a friend.

>>56462990
This post is bait and all, but really, why does /g/ seem to be acting like this is something exciting and new?

It's just a freetardized replacement for Interix which has been a thing since NT 4.0, and Cygwin has been around for over a decade now.

>>56463903
>Also what's the difference between C shell, power shell, and bash?
Different environments that are interacted with and scripted differently. The C shell is more common on Unix systems such as OS X and I think Solaris as well, though it seems bash has superseded it as the default on both platforms in more recent versions.

>>56462990
>thinks CLI is the only reason I use linux
it's because windows is such a pile of shit with everything that I don't want it to have anything to do with my hardware
it gets to live in a VM like the shitty malware it is

I don't even use Bash on Linux, why would I care that you can use it on Windows?

>>56464322
It is new - it's a binary compatibility layer. Both Interix and Cygwin produce source-level compatibility, meaning you have to recompile your programs into Windows executables. Win10's thing runs unmodified Linux binaries.

/thread

>>56462990
Yes, for hard drive recovery. For a top notch programming environment. For servers. For stability. For freedom. For custom desktop environments and window managers. For anti spyware. For anti bloatware. For anti proprietary software.

>>56463853
You're not a very advanced programmer

>>56464622
There is nothing wrong with Codeblocks for 99.999999999999999% of /g/ users.

>>56464622
Neither you

>>56463416
You can install cygwin without having to get admin privelages, so it's better for me, because I don't use windows on my computer. There is just no point to use windows for me.

Osu runs better on wine-staging than on windows, and it's about to get released on GNU/Linux natively. There are VMs if you don't like wine.

>>56463041
>you explained something in the easiest terms

No not really.

Windows may not be as free or offer as much customisation but I don't even care after these years, it gets out of my way and fades in to the background, works a lot better and gives me the full power of the HW I paid good money for, rather then what Linux desktop did to cripple my machine.
