Looking at the history of that user, that's either a 12 year old or a grade D troll.

Let's remember how relatively nice Lemmy is right now..

It has a certain shitposty quality to it

Not much more cringe is there than redditors responding to every post literally.

This highlights how [1] compiling on windows and configuring a compiler and settings is a PITA and [2] Windows has no package manager.

Yes, yes, we understand. Maybe cry and beg daddy Windows harder and maybe they will be kind enough to condescend... I mean probably not.

Maybe if he White Knights and SIMPs harder Sempai will notice him.

The funny thing is that they could've used pip. Even on Windows. https://pypi.org/project/sherlock-hunt/

Only if you have Python installed and know how to use command prompt

This used to be true but not anymore

Winget is still pretty young but very functional. And WingetUI is wonderful

And Chocolatey has been around for a long time as an unofficial Windows package manager

Yeah winget has some issues, but I regularly use it to just update everything it can recognize.

[–] neatchee 2 points 9 months ago

Yup! Especially now that there is WingetUI I always check there first when I want to install something new

This physically hurt me.

Who can I sue? Any lawyers in the chat?
