Learn how to take a screenshot

Part of the joke is that it looks like a snapchat story, hence the photo

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And what about their screen?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago

People on Snapchat dont give a fuck about cleanliness.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I feel like they intentionally got some bad glare on the screen, but in a spot where it wouldn’t interfere with you quickly reading the text. 🤌🏼

I didn't notice until you posted. I thought it was my phone screen.

I thought it was some sort of sky full of stars background.

It's okay. Emacs is still available.

[–] [email protected] 42 points 1 month ago

Bah. Moving from one ideologist's garden to another. Choose freedom! Choose Microsoft Paint.

Emacs runs everything if you try hard enough.

Someone has built an org mode plugin for launching steam games[1] - I don't believe anyone has yet built a steamos emulator in elisp, though.

But that just means it could be you!

I'm sure some PhD student has. Unfortunately they don't come out of their mom's attic for anything other than ramen so we'll never find out

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Holy shit, that looks real.

I... Don't have words. It's beautiful. And it's terrifying.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Dirty Emacs scum. Jk, I love ya.

Hey, personally, I use nano.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nano users unite and edit a few lines of code, but that's it.

Nano users unite and edit a few lines of code, but that's it.

I would pay for that on a shirt. That's really good.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

But what about micro :P

Honestly i feel micro is a child of vim and nano. Powerful addons and visual support. With simple keybinds

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Pretty great response.

[–] corsicanguppy 1 points 1 month ago

Similar - some cases less* - memory overhead, fewer key presses, more features; what's not to like? Oh, the vi cabal will brigade the heck outta this one.

*Tested, on a dare.

Instruction unclear, made a Neovim version lol

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Am not a Neovim user. How do you make the lines show up next to the directory contents listing?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That’s a plugin called oil.nvim, which allows you to navigate and edit filesystem as if it’s a neovim buffer

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Thanks!

I’ll add that onto my ~~pile~~ list of things to look into again once Helix gets its plugin functionality…

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

That's a programming font for the insane.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm just surprised this isn't a systemd joke

I assume these memes are related to tiktok somehow? Is there more to it than that, or am I just no longer "hip" enough to understand today's humor?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

Yea its a meme of the format of the TikTok ban message, though there is also a sub-joke is the PID being how the US's political parties swing back and forth, which is in the part where TikTok referred to trump planning on revoking the ban, and that it just needs to wait for it to finish swinging back right.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah I think it is, they had a similar page

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Damn, I guess ill have to use Nano (ewww)

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Gross, providing a UI you can just learn without a separate reference manual? Disgusting.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ikr, why would I want simplicity when I can have superiority (I use Arch btw)

Or micro, if you wish nano made sense

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Only issue I have with it is copy paste, especially over ssh

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I wish nano wouldn’t destroy line endings.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

What do you mean?

[–] caseyweederman 5 points 1 month ago

I have not seen that behavior

If the currently growth of fascism is at least a directly proportional (or even exponential) graph, just about every open source project will be banned for Reads in Louis rossman`s voice when he's pronouncing words like „own” allowing Treasonous and terrorist words like: „transgender”, „Socialism”, „nazi”, and „cis” without banning and reporting the users to the respective authorities to begin the process of relocating them to the nearest reeducation and work centre

( If you don't know the voice that I'm referring to, its in this video when he reads the EULA of sony https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krXH8jXefqE)
