Sounds like a comment on one of those tell me where you’re from without mentioning the country type of threads.

Not a native English speaker, but I automatically read it is hot Reagan. You could’ve told them you just had the hotties for ol’ Ronnie.

What a twat.

Unfortunately it won’t prevent another one taking his place. Especially with the 2020’s constitutional referendum that basically lets Russian war criminals get away unpunished. I think the whole country is fucked beyond repair at this point.

This is wholesome in a strange way.

I know I couldn’t.

If you have to ask, maybe not. But if you’re mostly “keyboard driven”, code and edit files a lot, it’s (vim or neovim) very much worth trying out.

Learn a memory technique. Start with Major system and go on from there. If you keep going, on the next long flight you’ll be happily creating new memory palaces or revisiting the old ones. All in your mind, no electronic devices needed.

They’re not only fun but useful as well.

Yes. There was a time when I. as a young man, wanted to at least visit the good ole US and A. Back then I didn’t have the money. Now when I probably could afford it, I don’t have the desire anymore.

Personally, I might shift the same picture through Darktable, GIMP, Inkscape, and even Scribus, depending on what I was trying to do with it. (Text on a path -> probably Inkscape, then export as PNG and import into GIMP as a layer.)

Gotta love this adaptation of the “do one thing and do it well” principle.

Speaking of which, how on Earth it’s such a slug these days? I pretty much quit Reddit when the protest started and moved to Lemmy. I never used any other Android app since I was reasonably happy with the official app. However, when I launched it to check how my old subs fared, I was quite surprised at how slow, laggy and bloated POS it had come.

I honestly don’t remember it being this crappy just a few weeks ago.

No (although you can easily create such a key mapping if so inclined). To type b character one must first enter the so called Insert mode. Depending on where exactly you wish to type the character, you can enter the Insert mode by typing for example i, a, I, A, o or O.

In a sane editor just press b.

Also Mastodon got pretty much hugged to death when Musk happened to Twitter.

Ah, the good ole “I’m leaving” announcement. Thanks for letting us know! I’m sure the Reddit subject will die over time anyway so who cares?
