You get a choice: Death by cheese, death by pasta, or death by marinara

If my boogers start smelling like peanut butter it means I’m getting a sinus infection. Happens without fail 2-3 days after I notice it.

It helps people, and for conservatives the cruelty is the point.

Semi-Hemi-Demigod , 1 year ago to linux in [Rant] I swear to fucking god. Windows is harder to use than Linux. Have any of you ever USED Windows lately? Holy fuck.

You think everyone with a datacenter with hundreds of windows servers logs in to each of them with RDP?

All of the customers I've dealt with professionally who use Windows generally start with pre-configured VMware or similar images that they then deploy, and then configure with RDP. I have literally, in over 20 years of professional work, never seen a Windows sysadmin ever use SSH.

In fact, when they are forced to use a Linux server most of them will set up VNC to get into it rather than use SSH. WHY?????

Yeah, it's... an acquired taste. You can actually script it. But it is harder than string manipulation, since the events are all objects, not strings.

Gotta love Windows: Files aren't files, dates aren't dates, logs aren't logs.

Cause I'm lazy.

Which is strange to me because using a GUI is so much less efficient than a CLI. Which makes me think Windows' CLI is not nearly as good as even bash.

Also, if you're wondering these are the only complete instructions for setting up SSH login with key pairs without using RDP that I could find on the entire Internet.

I imagine if you’re able to figure out a CLI you can also read a log, do some googling, and figure things out on your own instead of calling me.

But there are depressingly few of you. So few that it took me until now to learn that Windows even has SSH.

People are more likely to comment when they disagree, since agreement just ends up sounding like “me too!”

But I find people on the fediverse are a lot nicer

It’s not most of them, it’s literally all of them. In the decade or so I’ve been doing enterprise software support I have never seen a Windows admin use SSH, nor met one who wasn’t flummoxed at the notion of a CLI, nor worked with any Windows server that didn’t have a GUI.
