 Pierre Carrier | yes | 19:37:47 |
| Pierre Carrier | that's what I called "the ld trick" sorry | 19:38:11 |

 K900 | There's presumably a bash script to bootstrap the server | 19:41:32 |
| Pierre Carrier | fails like so | 19:41:36 |
| K900 | Which presumably explodes | 19:41:36 |
| Pierre Carrier | indeed | 19:41:42 |
| K900 | Normal vscode works, fwiw | 19:41:53 |
| Pierre Carrier | which is a tad weird because when launching from the CLI a bunch of stuff gets extracted already | 19:42:17 |
| Pierre Carrier | well that's quite unfortunate, sadly I need it for work | 19:59:39 |
| Pierre Carrier | found the workaround here: https://forum.cursor.com/t/install-cursor-in-nix-os-on-wsl-2/81609/2 | 20:06:44 |

| Pierre Carrier | I don't get links to open in a Windows browser when using aws or gcloud, unlike with arch. Any idea what I might be missing? | 14:43:08 |
| K900 | I don't really know what those do but you probably want something like wslview that will proxy to the Windows side | 15:43:10 |
| Pierre Carrier | sounds right. is that easy to set up? | 16:06:41 |
| Pierre Carrier | I installed wslu but I'm guessing I now need something to point to it? | 16:09:58 |
| Pierre Carrier | yeah just set BROWSER. feels not ideal to add another env variable but that'll do for now | 16:13:13 |

| Pierre Carrier | wow, everyt | 00:04:37 |
| Pierre Carrier | * wow, everything kinda just works hu | 00:04:48 |
| Pierre Carrier | I know very little of what was required, but kudos | 00:05:04 |
| Pierre Carrier | sorry, this is off topic, but if I want to ssh into my nixos-wsl from anywhere, is there much I have to do? I use networkingMode mirrored. unfortunately interacting with this particular install is rather time consuming and difficult so I can't tinker fast | 17:28:12 |
| K900 | I'd maybe just run something like Tailscale inside the VM | 17:28:39 |
| Pierre Carrier | perfect. and to make sure the VM is always running? | 17:29:13 |
| K900 | There's a setting in .wslconfig for how long the VM is kept alive for | 17:29:43 |
| Pierre Carrier | thanks. that and a startup script to run wsl exit 0 should do it then | 17:30:14 |
| Pierre Carrier | yup I'm all set I believe. thanks so much | 17:35:53 |
| Pierre Carrier | once I have a fully running system, can I image it using nix? not a fork of the nixos-wsl repo but everything in my flake: system config, user with home-manager, etc. I'd like to be able to restore my system in one command without exporting with wsl which lives temp files etc. in the backup | 17:37:39 |

| K900 | What do you mean by "image"? | 17:38:10 |
| K900 | Generate a NixOS config from a system that you set up manually? No | 17:38:18 |
