Remember: GNU/Linux and other UNIX systems can make files that are case-sensitive, Windows can't make files that are case-sensitive (lemmy.world)

you mean ntfs and fat are, not windows itself. if windows supported ext4, it wouldn't have case sensitivity on an ext4 drive

i doubt it would let you run .com files, or any of the other various "special" characters though.

Though we don't include whatever bullshit DOS compat might cause problems in either of these.

Isn't there an application on Windows that allows you to open ext4? You check it out on that

[-] potentiallynotfelix@lemdro.id 1 points 1 month ago

yes but it's not native in windows... then again fat and ntfs isn't native to linux either.

[-] ulterno@lemmy.kde.social 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah, but we don't know if we can do the case sensitive thingy on that, or do we?

[-] potentiallynotfelix@lemdro.id 0 points 1 month ago

I'd assume we can

  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
