The year is 2023, if you're still using CMD or batch files still that's on you. It's like riding a horse down a freeway and yelling at cars.
Sometimes you just need a quick ipconfig or nslookup, or a simple scheduled shutdown /s /f /t 00
You can still do those in PowerShell. Just saying.
Yeah, but it's muscle memory at this point
Win+r
Cmd
Ipconfig
Gonna take some time to get my hands to type wt instead of cmd
That wasn’t the conversation.
'Cmd' is to 'horse and buggy' as 'powershell' is to 'automotive vehicle'
Have no idea where you decided to pull this 100mph idea from. It wasn't a comment about speed, it was a comment about utilizing modern practices and tools. And that the joke falls apart because it's forcing the narrative all windows has is cmd and blatantly ignoring pwsh. It be me like making a joke how linux can't do wifi... because there was a time Windows did wifi just fine but linux required using a special process using an ndiswrapper with windows drivers to get linux on wifi... so like 16-17 years ago. See, hilarious.
That is a fair statement, but also a different topic.
I am thankful to live in an age with WSL.
ok boomer?
What? Ignoring the out of date, over used, 'gottem', phrase... it literally doesn't make sense given the context. I'm advocating for modern tools... how is that a 'boomer' move?
I ended it with a question mark because I was uncertain but otherwise your asinine, dismissive statement sounds like something a jackass who’s been around too long would say because he’s entirely too full of himself. I’m willing to recognize that it’s actually ignorance formed out of youth. Don’t think about it too hard.
