My Windows dev setup / howto

Rambelings

Ya windows the worst os to program on or is it.
For a long time i've been fully againced windows and i still kinda agree if you use it without "cheating". Windows it just too unstable and too un-standardized to work with on it's own, it's like using mac os with it's forever taking updates but combined with non-standardized tooling and a lot of unexpected bahavior what just results in a lot of frustration.
For example why can i see ls taking time to display lines in powershell???, ya it's only ~50ms but still why does a simple command like ls has to take so long??
Or why sometimes do programs not stop running when i press ctrl+c and do i need to open task manager and scroll to the program because there is no search bar so i can find it quickly??

A cheatsheet for installing FreeBSD

Corsair keyboard not working

Press the win key lock + F1 for 3 seconds. (this puts the keyboard in some kind of special mode where it behaves like an old keyboard)

Deafult programs

pkg install vim nano sudo

visudo

Ran on my Dell XPS 15 9560 (4k) using brunch with the rammus recovery

Why?

Mostly funs.

Findings

Great things:

Battery seem to be better than linux, equal to windows.
With normal usage laptops doesn't get hot even while wathcing 4k videos on youtube. Note that this also results in way less often the fan ramping up :)
Crostini works great and is by default setup to passtough localhost.
