“cross-platform” exe
lists windows, windows, and windows disguised as wine
Fun fact: The Windows executable format is originally based on an old Unix executable format.
Wine is a great emulator.
Wine Is Not an Emulator.
Gottem
Winae?
The “an” was the only thing not capitalized.
Haha if im not mistaken this might be about that guy saying wtf github why no exe? I’m sure someone has the link.
I am new to GitHub and I have lots to say
I DONT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT THE FUCKING CODE! i just want to download this stupid fucking application and use it https://github.com/sherlock-project/sherlock#installation
WHY IS THERE CODE??? MAKE A FUCKING .EXE FILE AND GIVE IT TO ME. these dumbfucks think that everyone is a developer and understands code. well i am not and i don’t understand it. I only know to download and install applications. SO WHY THE FUCK IS THERE CODE? make an EXE file and give it to me. STUPID FUCKING SMELLY NERDS

Looking at the history of that user, that’s either a 12 year old or a grade D troll.
Let’s remember how relatively nice Lemmy is right now…
It has a certain shitposty quality to it
This highlights how [1] compiling on windows and configuring a compiler and settings is a PITA and [2] Windows has no package manager.
Yes, yes, we understand. Maybe cry and beg daddy Windows harder and maybe they will be kind enough to condescend… I mean probably not.
Maybe if he White Knights and SIMPs harder Sempai will notice him.
This used to be true but not anymore
Winget is still pretty young but very functional. And WingetUI is wonderful
And Chocolatey has been around for a long time as an unofficial Windows package manager
proprietary, why did they mention that if they wanna marketing broo
Because it’s fake, it’s a joke about that GitHub troll a couple weeks ago
…I’m confused unless this is just a fake joke image. Is there really a Microsoft page dedicated to .exe like this? A quick Google only returned non-MS results for me and I can’t be bothered to look beyond that.
Also, what is there to even download for this? Just a link to Visual Studio to compile your own executables…?
Some dude was ranting somewhere recently about GitHub and “I just want the damn exe, not a bunch of stupid code”. It became a bit of a meme.
