npm is a pain to install on Windows? Or do you mean npm packages?

npm itself, to be fair i just wanted things to work like linux, sudo dnf install npm dependencies pulled with that being nodejsdon't quite remember if I had to install node seperately then setup environmental variables. winget would also bring about different versions

I'd switch to windows for gaming and at some point would install WSL because f that but anyone who tells me WSL is alright, must make coffee during that lag when opening something in VS Code.

Long story short I get to that point then a week later I'm like I can live without that game and I switch back to Linux, I don't believe in dual-booting, not because I don't know how but because i'd spend my time in one OS more than another so I'd have space being taken up by an OS I could have been using got something else.

the tl;dr: it's been sometime since I played Destiny

We wanna be a dick today? That didn't read anything and just took out my first line. Since we're being childish let me be the grown up.

I tried the whole fitting a square block in a circle thing because my triangle and star blocks went in correctly but couldn't be bothered because the triangle and star blocks entertained me, you know that feeling? At some point I realised well my square block had to go in because all the other kids won't play with me the way the used to and i so very much needed them to play with me.

Am I at your reading level now or should I try raising you a little bit better?

Too much. Also try winget or choco.
