K900 | For my /tmp | 09:16:40 |
K900 | That's mounted on tmpfs | 09:16:45 |
K900 | What is even | 09:16:52 |

nzbr (they/it) | Like these? | 09:18:53 |
K900 | Yep | 09:19:18 |
nzbr (they/it) | Weird... I have my /tmp on tmpfs as well (at least I think so) | 09:19:41 |
nzbr (they/it) | Fun fact: Those appear in my backups | 09:20:13 |
nzbr (they/it) | * "Fun" fact: Those appear in my backups | 09:20:19 |
houstdav000 | Maybe its some kind of new "swap" implementation? Weird... | 11:16:58 |
nzbr (they/it) | I do indeed have swap enabled, so that might be it | 11:18:53 |

nzbr (they/it) | houstdav000: Bingo! It's completely formatted as swap - not even a partition table | 11:30:37 |
K900 | So wait do they actually add swap by default | 11:32:34 |

nzbr (they/it) | apparently | 11:33:32 |
K900 | Blerf | 11:33:43 |
K900 | I guess I just have to remove that now | 11:33:50 |
nzbr (they/it) | It's possible to set it to a static path, so that's what I did now. It's weird that these aren't properly cleaned up though | 11:36:14 |

K900 | So uh | 17:00:47 |
K900 | Pro tip | 17:00:48 |
K900 | Make sure you escape backslashes in your .wslconfig | 17:01:00 |
K900 | Or you'll end up with swap in %TEMP% and no disk space again | 17:01:11 |
K900 | Also for the love of god please don't write any more software that uses loosely defined .ini files as config | 17:01:38 |
K900 | At least use TOML | 17:01:47 |
nzbr (they/it) | That is good to know (i may or may not have just put some extra backslashes in there) | 17:02:40 |
K900 | To clarify | 17:14:10 |
K900 | The failure mode for "swap location is not a valid path" is "whatever just stick it in %TEMP% who cares lmao" | 17:14:24 |
K900 | Which is not a good failure mode | 17:14:31 |
K900 | Honestly I am still very impressed by the fact that WSL somehow does not have an out of band error log | 17:15:42 |
