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.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 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.

    emacs ofc. I'm sure there's an emacs implementation of heaven

    [–] leo85811nardo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    More like heaven implementation within emacs, so you don't even leave emacs in your second life

    [–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    There are definitely at least 9 circles of emacs filled with tormented souls.

    [–] sepi@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

    They only know vi and don't know about evil mode.

    [–] Dialectical_Specialist@quokk.au 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    I'll try emacs as soon as I find something that isn't already perfect with vi

    [–] Dave@lemmy.nz 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    Well surely vi could be improved, otherwise we wouldn't have vim?

    [–] Dialectical_Specialist@quokk.au 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    Then the question becomes, "did neovim go to far?" :D

    [–] loweffortname@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    I mean...has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

    You can't really use go want to do look more like until you've first been far even as decided to even go. It's a prerequisite🀣

    Just give me nano, I can't be bothered to fuck with emacs or vim.

    [–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    One thing that irks me a lot is that you save in nano with ^O why!? How does O relates to saving?

    [–] b34k@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

    I want push my updates from volatile memory out to long term storage.

    I always saw the O as output.

    What the hell is an EMACS?

    [–] seggturkasz@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    If you want a short answers it is a text editor. If you want the long answer i might not be the best person for it but here it goes: You start using it as a text editor but it is a bottomless pit of freedom and practicality, where you put 100s of keyboard shortcuts into muscles memory, and one day you will find your self replacing your terminal with emacs. Then you forgot that GUIs exist all together. You will feel an urge to make fun of vim users. Somewhere along the way you'll start waching videos of Stallman, and form a desire to overthrow the proprietary overlords. Turn back now! ;)

    wait, what if you're at end stage emacs but you've never used the damn thing

    [–] Devjavu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    Microsoft Word over wine.

    Though I prefer to use it OOTB, no change settins, makes setup easier. I use a script to remove formatting.

    [–] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

    Police, this guy right here.

    [–] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    saw someone unironically use vim the other day. i thought people actually using vim was a joke.

    [–] martinb@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    It's my go to editor wherever possible.

    Learn the keybindings, play a few vim games and install an opinionated suite of plugins like lazyvim.

    Before you know it, you too will curse every other editor in existence which doesn't at least offer vim keybindings πŸ˜„

    [–] rain_worl@lemmy.world 0 points 2 hours ago

    hrhm are the vim games in the editor itself?? hrrhhm ,':) ',:) ,':)
