For those who are wondering, yes, Wine is malware compatible so be careful about the EXEs you run!
This is why I always test suspicious files on my work issued PC.
You’re the reason my Mondays are always chaos
Then you’re not going to be happy with me deploying work production code via my dedicated porn box…
I see you work for my company…

[Gru, the long-nosed protagonist of the “Despicable Me” franchise, presents to the camera, pointing into the air and smiling. Behind him is a flipchart with text reading:]
And the best part about using Linux: No viruses!
[Still presenting, Gru has his hand in a C shape and his head down as he peers at the gap between his fingers. The text now reads:]
Look at this, a website downloaded a malicious .exe on my machine.
[Gru now has his hands pointing down, fingers splayed, still presenting. The text now reads:]
*Double Click*
See? Nothing happe…
[Gru looks back to the flipchart in a double-take, his eyes round and wide and his mouth downturned. The text still reads:]
*Wine is launching*
[The Wine logo: a slightly tipped wine glass with red wine sloshing inside it.]
I am a human who transcribes posts to improve accessibility on Lemmy. Transcriptions help people who use screen readers or other assistive technology to use the site. For more information, see here.
Oh gods I’m tired. I read:

And saw the line break and thought “Wow. That was a good transcription.” I think I need to go back to bed.
Thanks human
Does Lemmy not support alt text? I can’t add alt text from Infinity for Lemmy; is that because Lemmy doesn’t support it or just my client? Because they really should.
As far as I’m aware, Lemmy unfortunately does not provide the option to add alt text to images. Hopefully that will change, though!
Really? So when I write , the alt text does nothing?
I didn’t know you could do that!
From what I can see, this means you can add alt text to images you embed using markdown. However, directly uploaded images in posts don’t seem to have a way to directly add alt text that I can find. You can add a transcription in the text body, but it’s not quite as accessible as pure alt text because screen readers won’t read it automatically when the image gets focused.
Possibly you could embed an image in the text body and upload that like a text post, and that way use the markdown to add the alt text, but that would require the image is already hosted somewhere in the internet.
Good human
I feel like, for some weird reason, nobody on lemmy knows how meme templates are supposed to be used.
It’s like watching my parents try to meme and I’m here for it.
Same thing happened on Reddit, honestly.
you mean because of the last two panels which are supposed to be the same? I personally prefer this version, it always bothered me reading the same thing twice which didn’t add much to the meme
The double take is the meme though…
it doesn’t have to conform to the exact format to work
The year of Linux desktop! Complete with the malwares!
how could it be though? a malware written for windows isn’t the same as one written for linux, even if it got out to your computer it shouldn’t be able to do really anything since it can’t orient itself around an operating system it wasn’t written for
Sadly “Wine is not a container” doesn’t make for a good acronym.
WINC? 😉

And anti cheat don’t work… Malware that gets into internals of windows probably fail like anti cheat
It can still corrupt files. I knew that wine was the shut when I had to delete my wineprefix because Eve Online complained about corrupted file. Even better, a virus scanner would run and detect the malware.
