og WSL was the shit

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:12 PM

it's a misnomer

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:12 PM

kernel level beauty

PPerksey og WSL was the shit

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:12 PM

tru

TechPizza•1/13/23, 8:12 PM

i hate IO in WSL2 :(

flyke•1/13/23, 8:13 PM

I thought they made WSL on top of that Posix which is compatible with Unix.

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:13 PM

WSL2 is kinda just a VM

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:13 PM

og WSL wielded a lot of happy accidents created by NT being designed to be posix compliant

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:14 PM

like case sensitivity

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:14 PM

tbh if microsoft wanted they could make windows the ultimate software platform with a MacOS subsystem for Windows, i'm surprised they havent

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:15 PM

with the development power of microsoft they totally could

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:15 PM

well

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:15 PM

that would be very illegal

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:15 PM

copying an API isn't illegal, right? how does wine exist

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:16 PM

or any non oracle JVM

TechPizza•1/13/23, 8:16 PM

oracle would copyright the alphabet if they could

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:17 PM

i don't mean a mac vm like WSL2, i mean an NT personality to mimic the MacOS API

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:17 PM

they could make a Darwin subsystem

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:17 PM

that's what i meant

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:17 PM

but full fat MacOS would be infringement

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:17 PM

and Darwin is pretty useless on its own

flyke•1/13/23, 8:17 PM

If only I could run MacOS or iOS on Windows

No need to buy real devices just to use Safari.

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:17 PM

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:18 PM

(the silk team does not condone illegal behaviours like using MacOS in a VM :^)

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:18 PM

yeah I was about to say

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:18 PM

piracy (which this technically is) is against the discord ToS

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:19 PM

please LEGALLY use MacOS
buy a used mac for cheap, keep computers out of the landfill

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:20 PM

Darwin XNU on the other hand is open source

flyke•1/13/23, 8:20 PM

So far I use very super absolutely legal iPad Air

No worry, Discord

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:20 PM

so if you can get it running power to you

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:20 PM

i'm excited for darling

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:21 PM

the prospect of Mac apps on linux is neat

TTechPizza because you could probably use silk.net without bundling sdl

Igorko•1/13/23, 8:49 PM

sooo... i'm still unsure how would i do that

TechPizza•1/13/23, 8:50 PM

stop referencing SDL to your project

Igorko•1/13/23, 8:50 PM

yeah, but getting rid of Silk.NET.Windowing.Sdl.Android from MainActivity.cs essentially causes this

Redhacker2•1/13/23, 8:50 PM

Igorko•1/13/23, 8:50 PM

Redhacker2•1/13/23, 8:50 PM

So remove SDL entirely

TTechPizza stop referencing SDL to your project 🙃

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:50 PM

silk windowing for android directly references sdl

Igorko•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

i would have to construct my own view, arent i?

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

yeah this probably isn’t the best advice

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

I recommend sticking to our examples

PPerksey yeah this probably isn’t the best advice

Redhacker2•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

Agreed

TechPizza•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

wait, so silk doesn't have the pure-android implementation yet?

Lyris the Kitori•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

i wish

TechPizza•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

was that a 3.0 thing that i just thought was real

TTechPizza wait, so silk doesn't have the pure-android implementation yet?

Redhacker2•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

They don't have a pure anything implementation. They use SDL and GLFW for their windowing systems

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

no we will do

PerkseyOP•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

but 3.0 has effectively zero (0) lines of code

Redhacker2•1/13/23, 8:51 PM

But yes, the plan is to go full native

og WSL was the shit
