Episode Details

We load up Windows 10 with WSL2, the new Terminal, and give it a go to see what it does better than Linux. Then we dive into the deep end and attend the first-ever WSLConf.

Plus the big new feature coming to Ubuntu, why Chris is going to Denver, and more.

Special Guests: Alan Pope, Brent Gervais, and Martin Wimpress.
