I’ve been getting weird walking instructions. Like 6 min walk is +30 to avoid some invisible barrier.

I have a few of those. During the reddit exodus when the API changes went live, I had to register on a few servers to finally get a working and stable account. Issues with email or setting up captchas to prevent bots resulted in a few of my accounts not going live until a week+ later on some instances.

1. Multi-community simulator
2. Defederation avoidance, usually paired with accounts on special interest servers you don’t want to risk losing access to.
3. Porn and non-porn.
4. Privacy by dividing online activities between multiple accounts to make it difficult to profile you and to maintain some pseudonymity.

Brew or Nix do a pretty good job of closing the gap.

I’m the only Linux user on my team and was getting pissed at Apple’s old bash (4.x something) and some of the tools like find having slightly different flags causing some scripts to not work locally.

Added a nix flake + devshell + direnv and now they run the same version the servers do of everything, but only when in the project.

Do you even linter bro? lol. I do TypeScript, but even my i9 can get bogged down by the language server from time to time.

The whole hard capped RAM on the SoC is not for me also. I do a few things in python. If I want to load up a 32G pandas data frame on my laptop, I want the option of 64G RAM without having to replace the whole thing.

I get MAYBE 2h battery life (Dell Precision) when I’m hacking away, so my use case may not match yours. Vroom vroom…

That said, ARM itself is generally fine. We have some graviton EC2s hosting our application. I’d just make sure the docker images you expect to use have ARM builds. That bit us a couple times.

Download 5 seasons of some show from multiple sources or some artist’s entire discography, and want to normalize all the file names? It is way easier in the terminal.

I’ll check this out, but I use https://github.com/stevearc/oil.nvim for such tasks as I have nvim’s full suite of editor commands to rename all the files way faster than I could in a GUI. I’m sure there are GUI apps to perform a similar task, but I already know how to use nvim.

Same. Have it baked into my neovim setup.

Why not use rclone? It can mount proton drive.

I’m not against having a car for when I need it. I’m against pretty much requiring it to be a functional adult to do just about anything without public transit becoming my new hobby.

Work: 20min drive, 1h 20min transit, 2h bike

Groceries: 10min drive, 45min transit

This includes a bunch of walking to/from stops and half the time spent waiting since my city’s public transit hub/spoke model is designed for airplanes requiring you to bounce between hubs.

There also isn’t consistency. A favorable route might only come once every few hours. If one hop is running late, it can wreck the whole route.

My work route is pretty direct but it takes 12min walking, 0-20min waiting for a bus to my local hub, 0-40min waiting for the right train, and another 15min walking to the office. If they got those wait times down to like 10-20min total, I’d be more inclined to use it. Right now “something” comes every 20min, but sometimes the routes alternate so your route may come every 40min instead of 20min.

Let em fight it out!

Ruling class does it all the time. Keep citizens enraged on issues of race, gender, religion, sports, and so on so they are distracted from realising the one true war of ruling class vs everybody else.

/s in a sense that shit flung at the ruling class tends to roll downhill. If nestle loses a bunch of money, they will raise prices to keep the infinite growth machine running. If Russia steals a bunch of money, they have more capital for weapons.

Its kind of lose/lose for us :(

Something like vim-table-mode work as an improvement? You got me there though, tables can be a real pain in a terminal.

For the second, I setup an on save hook or watch script to build a PDF and open it. Its been a minute, but I think I had to find a PDF viewer that would refresh if already open and keep the current position on subsequent opens.

Best of luck finding something that works for you!

Need more info.

The answer will still and always be, just use nvim.

What features do these dedicated tools have that make you want to use something other than nvim?

Not a huge fan of this. I distinctly do not want:

• To be tied to Proton if they really fuck up. I use my own domains that are portable. I use Proton Pass aliases for throw away accounts I could go without.
• To not be able to secure my accounts with separate emails/usernames and long distinct passwords (or better yet passkeys) for each service. I don’t use Proton Pass for password management.
• To provide data points linking my online activities by not using separate emails/usernames.

I haven’t made a keyboard in awhile but anything that supports QMK (or whatever is new and shiny today) should be able to support this.

QMK and the like are custom firmware so you can pretty much code up whatever feature you need.

If you are looking for a pre-built, I know my Tofu65 supports QMK from https://kbdfans.com/.

QMK is written in C but they do have a no code tool I used for my Tofu65: https://config.qmk.fm/#/.

If the tool doesn’t cover your use case and you are able to do a little C, these sections are good starting points for layers (what you call modes) and cursor keys.

My work laptop is a Dell Precision. It was a “data science” model that came with Ubuntu. Wiped Dell’s modified Ubuntu and put vanilla Ubuntu on it and now running Nixos. Works great. There was a weird period when using triple monitors with their dock had an intermittent issue on boot where resolutions and monitors were not being detected. Cause was Nvidia drivers. It eventually got resolved and it was easy enough to rollback the drivers to one that worked.

1. Install nix.
2. nix profile install nixpkgs#vscodium
3. nix profile upgrade ‘.*’

Won’t auto update but you could add the upgrade command to a login script or something.

Won’t lie, nix has a high learning curve to get the most out of it, but installing a single app is pretty simple.

It was really good. Seeing Logan and Loki (series) would help follow the plot some if you haven’t seen either but I didn’t feel it was hard requirement. There are throwbacks to past Fox superhero movies, but they didn’t add critical plot points.

Lots of 4th wall breaking including ripping into Disney, Fox, and the post Endgame downward spiral of MCU.
