WSL and Google G Drive

I have a job with a company laptop. They use Google Drive for their project folders, and this is not something that I will ever change with them. The also use Salesforce for almost all the things, and that is worse than any business "solution" that I have every tried.

But this is not a note for that, this is a note about how I can get my G:/ folder into WSL2 so I can use all my python based tools for projects.

Luckily Rishikesh Sreehari has already figured this out.

sudo mount -t drvfs G: /mnt/g

cd "/mnt/g/My Drive"

That's it. So now I just need to add that as a bash script or at least a sticky note so I don't forget why the jupyter notebook isn't working.
