oh wait, you mean from client side javascript? I didn't know you could do that. FWIK, only WebSockets are supported within browsers - let me know if you know of a way otherwise.

This already works with WSL1.0, so I'd consider it to be a regression if not. I just verified with opening vscode from bash in a windows directory from WSL using `code /mnt/c/Users/zeusk/Desktop/memester`

There are other tell-tale signs, like wingtips, how the rear-end tapers out, number of wheels in the main landing gear, location of pitot tubes etc. Wingtips alone will give away Airbus vs Boeing on all current in-production models.

4K is 3840x2160, or 4 times 1920x1080. Pedantically, 4K is 4096x2160 but UHD has come to resonate as 4K thanks to TV marketing.
