Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    lemmitors

    Did you forgot that lemmings are an actual animal?

    [–] saltesc@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

    You're both close. Combine the two and add a chocolate and coconut flakes coat. Everyone loves Lemmingtons.

    Too much british sounding

    Kbimbos

    Or Kbinbows for those who want to evoke the same obscure Japanese-language pun as Michaelsoft Binbows

    Filthy little kbinses!!!

    Took me a while but I eventually realised I had to SSH from a other machine and initiate a reboot. It becomes second nature after a while.

    Either that or ":wq" if you actually want to write things. These are the only commands one really needs to use VIM in a most basic sense. I don't get how it's so hard to remember or whatever

    [–] derrg@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

    :x if you want to save a keystroke ;)

    [–] genoxidedev1@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

    True that! For me it's just mostly muscle memory now, 'x' makes me think execute which is why I'll never be able to use it without hesitating.

    There's so much non-info ingrained in my memory by nothing but my own logic which is why ^.

    [–] 10issues@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

    But using ZZ to tuck that file into bed is the only way I can do it now

    [–] downhomechunk@midwest.social 9 points 2 years ago

    I like lemming instead of lemmitor

    [–] Tb0n3@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    Run vimtutor. Everyone should.

    [–] sip@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago

    sure, I did but I didn't remember squat.

    Yeah, who would want to leave Vim? Reddit on the other hand... :-P

    [–] holycrap@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

    Some former coworkers and I created a random number generator that worked by opening an insurance of vim and instructing someone who isn't familiar with vim to close the program. By recording the keystrokes we could get a string of random characters or numbers.

    The results weren't very random but that shit delighted or immature asses

    [–] xamboni@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

    give micro a try if you don’t like vim!

    [–] fraydabson@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

    Yeah. Reddit still comes up in search results when I am troubleshooting. So they get my click once in a while but otherwise I avoid Reddit like a plague.
