@michael_j_ward:matrix.orgmichael_j_wardThank you. In the end, your help led me to windows built in Task Scheduler, and I was able to follow the GUI to create the StartNixOS task :D https://superuser.com/a/954969/75516013:50:43
@michael_j_ward:matrix.orgmichael_j_ward Also thanks for alerting me to wsl-distrod. Do you know if that work was incorporated into WSL now that WSL natively supports systemd? 13:53:01
@k900:0upti.meK900No, it's an independent implementation 13:53:42
@k900:0upti.meK900You can use it with NixOS if you're OK with some jank 13:53:53

@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧FYI https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/releases/tag/1.0.000:57:35
@k900:0upti.meK900Oh dear god07:13:47
@k900:0upti.meK900Why now 07:13:53
@nzbr:nzbr.denzbr (they/it)It's about as done as Windows 11 on release11:43:58
@k900:0upti.meK900 I'm not sure why 1.0 and why now 11:46:42
@k900:0upti.meK900Like, I'd expect 1.0 to be the initial release11:46:50
@k900:0upti.meK900 Which was the non-Store version 11:46:57
@k900:0upti.meK900And I'd also expect a major bump after they're done with the systemd stuff 11:47:10
@nzbr:nzbr.denzbr (they/it) Because now we have to specify version numbers like WSL v2 Windows-Store v1.0.0 - what's not to love about that? /s 11:55:26
@nzbr:nzbr.denzbr (they/it) I tried to update, but the latest version in the store and with wsl --update seems to still be 0.70.5.0 12:00:47
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧
In reply to @k900:0upti.me
Why now
Counter question: why not?
16:11:06
@k900:0upti.meK900systemd is still horribly busted for many use cases16:11:33

@k900:0upti.meK900Oh yeah12:04:18
@k900:0upti.meK900It's actually running now12:04:21
@k900:0upti.meK900But doesn't work on NixOS12:04:38
@k900:0upti.meK900hmmm12:04:39
@k900:0upti.meK900
tmpfs on /run/user/1000 type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,size=4933168k,nr_inodes=1233292,mode=700,uid=1000,gid=100)
none on /run/user/1000 type tmpfs (rw,relatime)
12:11:01
@k900:0upti.meK900huh12:11:03
@k900:0upti.meK900What the hell is happening here tbh12:13:09
@k900:0upti.meK900Yep, it's two different filesystems12:18:10
@k900:0upti.meK900Something is definitely racy12:18:13
@k900:0upti.meK900 OK so the none is a bind mount of /mnt/wslg/runtime-dir 12:20:42
