oh. i guess i’m using the wrong editors then :P
hai :3

oh. i guess i’m using the wrong editors then :P
i’d probably use tabs if they weren’t so massive by default.
do people actually use 8 space wide tabs? if so, what for?
yeah. you’re right.
it’s not like i blindly trust the votes to tell me what’s right and wrong, but they still influence my thoughts. i could just sort by new, but i feel like that’s almost as easy to manipulate.
i guess it comes back to the topic of the post. where and how i get my information is always going to affect me.
i’m sure other platforms are no better than lemmy with manipulating content, but maybe for different reasons. i just have to choose the right places to spend my time.
isn’t that what the upvote/downvote buttons are for? although to be fair, i’d much rather the people of lemmy decide which things are good and interesting than some “algorithm”
the real Year of the Linux Desktop™ was the friends we made along the way.
they are very similar. my only problem with hyprland was that the mouse is still required for some things, and it’s a bit annoying having to switch back and forth.
on sway, everything can be done by keyboard. i still use the mouse a lot, but there’s less switching in the middle of tasks.
it’s a little difference, but it was worth it for me.
there’s also the drama about some people being transphobic (i think?) in the hyprland discord, but i try not to pay too much attention to that.
hyprland accomplishes it’s goal of being pretty (and i got some really cool screenshots), but sway is pure functionality, and it’s damn good at it.
i feel a little more comfortable commenting here.
being a smaller community, i feel like i’m actually contributing when i post something, instead of just adding to a sea of noise
it also helps that i’ve come up with this new “persona”. i’m able to be more of the real me than i can with my main account.
it’s like half way between anonimity and publicity. this account has very little connection to my meatspace existance, so i feel safe to say anything. but at the same time i’m not gonna act like some 4chan user. halfway_neko’s a good girl lol
ye. i’ve been using wayland since forever.
started on hyprland, and then moved to sway, but it’s been an almost perfect experience for me
sometimes i have to install a different version of a package or smth, but otherwise everything works fine.
i think it’s really cool in theory, but only the anonymous ones. i don’t use crypto personally, but it’s important that something like it exists.
cryptobros and capitalism have ruined what little reputation the name had, and it’s obviously not going to replace “normal” money any time soon.
i feel like it’s kind of similar to the cashless systems that most banks use, but you’re trading lots of electricity for “not having the economy be owned by a couple of massive corporations”. obviously it has it’s flaws, but i see that as a worthwhile trade.
edit: oh yeah, i didn’t mention it, but this is another vote for monero (it’s private and it’s an esperanto word :P)
you guys are getting settings menus? i’ve been doing everything manually this whole time :(
i’ll have to figure out how to use this ui. i have a few “adjustments” i want to make :3
btop
because pretty colors :3
i still need to learn how to use top
well though, just in case that’s the only option some day. if all else fails i just resort back to ps
and (p)kill

precious eggy. will protecc o7
(Arch, btw)
Technical: Better, easier to use APIs for pacman. The last time I tried to do alpm stuff, it wasn’t fun.
Social: Less rtfm. The manual is good, but it’s not cool when people are super elitist (especially towards newbies).
Don’t worry, most modern brains have a builtin jit compiler, so when a habit starts to form, the check will be optimised out. (It saves excess neurons from being generated.)
I might be an odd one out here. By the time I was forming memories the internet age was well underway.
The first thing that I can remember was some old flash game about guiding a worm through a maze.
That game was unforgiving, tiny me had to be on point with their trackpad movements.
Deleted my entire efi partition while trying to install some grub themes.
And then my backup didn’t work when I tried to restore it.
I have pretty colours now though, so it was all worth it :)
I never used to use Home and End until I put them on a layer right next to my home row. Now I can’t live without them. Position really makes a difference!
space, ctrl, or sometimes the entire numpad at once. it’s just one big button :P
