# Windows subsystem for linux with Evan Leibovitch

After one too many times fighting with PulseAudio and video drivers and having
printers and scanners that will NEVER work with Linux, I gave up my dual boot
laptop and desktop and have loaded Win 10 on both.

Turns out, things run faster too, even open source apps like Handbrake which
take advantage of the GPU to do its video decoding while Linux can't do that.

But the story is not done. I installed Windows Subsystem for Linux and now have
a fully running Kubuntu as a VM when I want it. And there are some interesting
tools such as Windows Terminal in which you can have a Linux terminal shell
next to a tab with Windows PowerShell.

# Code of Conduct

We want a productive happy community that can welcome new ideas, improve every
process every year, and foster collaboration between individuals with differing
needs, interests and skills.

We gain strength from diversity, and actively seek participation from those who
enhance it. This code of conduct exists to ensure that diverse groups
collaborate to mutual advantage and enjoyment. We will challenge prejudice that
could jeopardise the participation of any person in the community.

The Code of Conduct governs how we behave in public or in private whenever the
Linux community will be judged by our actions. We expect it to be honoured by
everyone who represents the community officially or informally, claims
affiliation or participates directly. It applies to activities online or
offline.

We invite anybody to participate. Our community is open.
