Holy fucking shit I am not alone. Oh god. It's real. I'm not alone.

How good is it with background activities?

About the only thing holding me back is that my phone runs a continuous glucose monitor, constantly connecting with a small sensor in my arm. That all quietly dying in the background would just... not be an option.

Not my style

Not comfortable

Too cold

Neovim, because I wanted something that would not just disappear.

I never really got along with VSCode, opting for Atom instead. Microsoft bought GitHub, which owned Atom, and promptly discontinued it.

Nvim has such an active community (and no "owner") that I'm certain that this won't happen again. At the same time, the plugin system is so flexible that I'm also certain that I will never miss out on any shiny new features.

Over the years, my config has matured, and is mine. The thought of going back to an editor, any editor, less flexible in its configuration than nvim is just... an absolute "no".

It's a steep learning curve, but well worth it.

"Oh no, this device is rooted! :(" Yes because I know what I am doing, now show me my account balance you stupid piece of ahit banking app.

Don't worry, I haven't had to use Windows or MacOS since the early 2010s.

Summarize and find stuff, iirc

Oh, nice. Other way as well? Can I comment from my Lemmy instance's web interface?

Why, what did I miss?

Well, good news! Windows File Explorer gets built-in AI actions, so you can combine the worst of both worlds! 🥳

No.

Apart from everything else, also consider that it's just respectful to at least try and learn the local language of wherever it is you are going. Doesn't matter if it's on vacation or long term company deployment.

Also, LLMs are absolute garbage at picking up on things like subtle language-based jokes, for example.
