Haven't had to mess around with that much so I wouldn't know for sure, but I had the impression there were things that you could set user specific.

@alyx@gameliberty.club I mean I still consider that global, I was thinking as opposed to setting it for the session. My bad on the bad terms.

@emilis
I thought you might have meant it that way. I usually just use permanent/temporal as a distinction for this case, and user/global to make distinction between user settings and system level settings.

As for settings env variables in Windows, for a session... fuck that shit. Someone should burn in hell for that one.

@alyx@gameliberty.club Is it that much of a pain?
Yeah, well, I did say windows wasnt gunna be a fun experience for them anyway for this task :)

@emilis
I came across it for a class once. I never really understood how the command should be used correctly I guess, because when I tried to do it, it basically erased all other environment variables and set the one I gave it. Which is kinda bad imo.

@alyx@gameliberty.club wow that's

actually yeah that's an experience I just had with a azure product recently so makes sense

@emilis
It does work just fine if you first list all the env variables, copy & paste them, and then add your own. IIRC the syntax used in the listing is the same as how you write to add.

Or at least that's how I managed to make it work. Again, it very well might be that I was a complete moron and didn't understand the correct usage.
