-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Sometimes it's something simple like CTRL-C, then CTRL-V and the person watching you is like: wait how did you do that?!
You joke.
I had a hardcore boomer who worked mainframes - he was a mainframe wizard - refuse a redundancy payment (at age 60 - would have been a year plus wages). He was told if he didn't take it, he would be moved to a team elsewhere. He shows up in my team and I had to teach him how to do copy paste. Then the shortcuts blew his mind.
He still used a pen and paper to change passwords (kept a small pile of them on his desk, and none were labeled but that's another story).
I highly doubt that was a joke. It is unsettlingly common among even those who use computers daily.
And then you absolutely blow their fucking mins with WIN+V
I've been a Linux user for so long. Clipboard history was a thing almost two decades before Windows got it. I don't think it is coded to Win+V though -- CTRL-ALT-V is what my muscle memory is telling me...
Middle mouse button paste is the bees knees though ;)
Well, depends on the clipboard manager or desktop environment what the default shortcut is. On KDE, it is Win+V.
Ctrl+alt+V for Linux? Which distro?
I just switched to Mint and have been trying to find a way to do clipboard history on mine lol
I presumed KDE Plasma. But there is so many variations among linux desktops and distros :)
I have to use Windows computers from time to time. It's so frustrating to middle click and nothing happens
Haha I remember someone at a front desk grumbling about how they couldn't find the clock, and without looking at their screen I asked them to press F11. The way they looked at me when that solved it was priceless.
