Found my first issue with using a Dev Drive, and wanting to have access to it from WSL: apparently the way Dev Drives mount in Windows is not compatible with the WSL auto-mounting.
Why does this matter? Docker Desktop (in WSL 2 mode) can't mount a Dev Drive folder.
Do I dump WSL 2 mode for Docker? Or do I dump Dev Drive? Tough choice, but I suspect I dump the Dev Drive.
I've been using cargo (#RustLang package manager) for [cough] yrs and it is very nice. But always on my Ubuntu laptop. #Linux
That laptop died so right now I'm using an old Windows 10 (not 11 as stated earlier) laptop with #WSL and I have cargo building in #Windows and Ubuntu 22 (under WSL) and it just works.
Cross platform #development used to be one of the hardest most frustrating things, but tools like #cargo and #Tauri have changed all that.
Forced to revert to an old Windows laptop while I await a delivery from god knows where, I've just installed #WSL which at first glance works brilliantly. (That's Ubuntu running on Windows 11 and using a Linux kernel rather than a compatibility layer on the Windows kernel.)
Now all that Microsoft have to do is include the option to remove Windows and the world will be much improved. #Linux#Ubuntu
I've updated my ansible-dev-pc¹ repository to support the recently released Ubuntu 24.04 (hence my discussion on getting .NET to behave). This supports Desktop Ubuntu 22.04/24.04, Pop!_OS 22.04, and Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 in WSL 2.
I'm still waiting for Pop!_OS 24.04 to be released so I can verify it there as well.
Was scary to see her pass out during the Conti Cup final between Arsenal and Chelsea, however the good news is that it doesn't seem to be cardiac-related, meaning she'll probably be able to play again a lot sooner.
Shocking scenes in the Conti Cup final after Maanum got stretchered off. Marred the occasion and the atmosphere around the tie was definitely dampened after that point.
Glad to hear that she is conscious and stable, however. Thoughts are with her for sure.
This was the only sensible outcome if the allegations were found to be true. There should never be an environment where relationships between players and managers should be tolerated, imo.
What the WSL needs is a better standard of officiating across the board. The league has yet to implement full-time, professional referees. Refs are still semi-pro and the gulf in quality/training is becoming more and more obvious.
Hard to disagree with the sentiment of this article.
I saw the game and it was frustrating to watch. Villa were just pinned into their own third for the entire second half attempting to play super defensive after going 1-0 up.
Think we can all agree it was a really bad call and West Ham are right to feel aggrieved.
That said, I also agree that VAR isn't the sole solution here. You didn't need VAR to see she was clearly onside. Quality of refereeing in the WSL needs to be worked on through proper investment and training in refs.

Did you know that instead of using the Windows Linux Subsystem you can actually just install Linux on it's own and then you don't have to use Windows at all?
Will be interesting to see if she's played her last game for Aston Villa, since it's been widely reported that Manchester United may be looking at her for a potential summer transfer instead of Mary Earps.
