Vim has several modes. INSERT mode let’s you write text, NORMAL mode let’s you navigate (with h,j,k,l and others) and perform operations on the text with your keyboard, like “dw” to Delete Word or “A” to enter insert mode at the end of the line.

You can use arrow keys to navigate in insert mode. However I just press escape, which changes to normal, navigate to where I want to, then change to insert mode.

I may seem like this makes simple navigation complex, and it kinda does. But complex navigation becomes easier.

Vi (and vim and neovim)'s primary concern is viewing and editing code, writing is secondary (although it’s still an excellent experience)

WTF do you mean? The rat is now the cornerstone of my terminal’s functionality.

connect. I love it very much but gifs only load the correct frame when I click the image and stay with that :(

Jokes on you! My lemmy client doesn’t work with gifs!

could you share a link?

Not 100% under your control, but certainly not “beyond control”

Well actually it was my fingers with his feet! We were playing a card game and my friend wanted to give me a card under the table. We where at opposite sides of the table, so I tried finding his hand down there and found a vaguely arm-like coarse-skinned thing and tried to grab the underside and slide towards my self to find the hand. Except it wasn’t my friend’s arm, in fact it wasn’t my friend at all! It was his boyfriend’s leg, realizing this and being a devilish creature I turned my hand and tried to grab his toes.

I have done this with my friend and accidentally to his boyfriend. They say it’s traumatic, I found it hilarious

That’s precisely how Mario dresses. Denim denim denim.

For me I rarely actively try to visualize what’s going on. Perhaps you haven’t found something that really sparks your interest in reading, I’ve only started reading a couple of years back.

Although, of course, I may be completely wrong and visualizing is a big part of reading that I simply haven’t realized

This but reversed. My first install was up at 3pm, got it to not login anymore at 3am. Prelude to an horrible amazing relationship

You can probably make your DE login in automatically, load the stuff, then log out

~/code for code

~/dots for git-backed nix configs

~/.rt for projects compiled locally (“runtime”)

~/Screencast for recordings of my screen

I also create a ~/.shrc.bash symlink that points to ~/dots/bash/bashrc that reats ~/dots/bash/*.bash and sources the files

~/.shenv.bash where I keep environment (computer) specific settings

Yes 100%. I love my girlfriend and that’s why we hold a conversation while having sex, it’s nice to talk to each other :)

Oh my got it’s right!

Proof here

I wanted to code in C. I saw some tutorials for windows and found it very complex, but I saw one in linux where the person just gcc hello.c. And since then I’ve fallen in love

Buffalonian buffalo [who] Buffalonian buffalo bully, bully Buffalonian buffalo

for me splitting the groups made the sentence make sense: NJ people NY people bully, bully NY people
