The V: pattern itself is quite good because you can do quite a lot of powerful things with selected text.

For example: ggV}:s/^/ -/ will insert a - at the beginning of every line turning your bunch of lines into a Markdown list of items 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Same here 🤣 My fingers know everything, my brain does not 😅 Same with passwords too, at least the important ones, master password, passwords for my machine(s) and work laptop. Don’t ever try to interrogate me for them, only my fingers know 🤣

Apparently I am incapable of getting my sh…Things done unless I drop to TTY xD

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Touch Typing GIGA-CHAD spotted how fast do you type? I can barely do 12wpm xD so I have plenty of time to think about my next short-cut.

@bmallred@staystrong.run Sweeeeeeeeeeet!! Just gave it a try and sorted my Jenny follow list; Thank you !!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com … this made me realize that I don’t really know anymore which commands I use. It’s all muscle memory by now. 🤔

Offen Fair Web Analytics This looks pretty good., might give this a try. Been using GoatCounter, but it’s pretty bland in that it doesn’t really tell me much 😅

TIL: The word “eldritch”, as in “eldritch horror”, does not refer to some small village in England. 🥴 https://www.etymonline.com/word/eldritch

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org the addressing of the “Bug Bounty program associated with this case” is such a total BS! I can’t help but believing the kid over Zendesk. The “-99” downvotes are telling. I could’t give mine, because I am not signing up on Zendesk for it. Ain’t nobody got time for that!

I thought I lost one of my knives at the flea market this year, but luckily, I just found it in my washbag. Woohoo, yippee! :-) So, I only miss the other that must have fallen out of my pocket when I cycled to the scouts last month.

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net seriously who the fuck is asking for this shit?

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yeah, remebering them is a challenge. It often helped me in the past to just try using one or two new commands over and over again. But that obviously doesn’t work that well when the specialized command does not come up in daily routines all that often.

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net WHO does Tim Cook think he is anyway?! 🤦‍♂️

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Noice 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net Sure!! gg=G auto-indents your documents, as for the rest it’s:

• v for selection mode, c for change and d for delete actions as usual.
  
• followed by either ‘afor around ori` for inside/in-between whatever special character comes after it
  _ the [, (, “ … special characters define the perimeter/extent of the action.
  

i.e: ci" would be change the text under the cursor between quotes and da[ _delete text and brackets included_

I’ve linked a reference in the first twt, hope you find it useful.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com And pray tell/share with us what these magical commands do? 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yeah, that’s the thing! I’ve been trying to learn more vim motions and I just can’t get myself to remember any… Now I have that cheat sheet bookmarked, I can look them up on the need to know basis.

@sorenpeter@darch.dk I watched it the other day, it’s pretty neat! do you have more of these?

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Nice tricks, ta! I actually came across di{ some time ago but entirely forgot about it.

Learned to gg=G and to va", ci", di{… in vim the other day 😆 Life will never be the same, I can feel it. ref

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Hahaha. :-D I saw some TLS errors today when fetching your feed. Welcome back. :-)

Note to self: “If your dashboard says you sh..t is down, it means your sh..t is down. It’s not a dashboard miss-config you dumb azz” 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net A 15-year-old reported a security vulnerability in some shitware and they acted like absolute dickheads. Unfortunately, that’s how it often goes. The internet is full of similar reports where people a treated like that by companies, sometimes even way worse than that.

Read it, prologic, it’s totally worth it. That’s a great writeup by some very cool dude.

The PR article by the company just speaks for itself and reinforces their dick move. No more questions. https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/8187090244506-Email-user-verification-bug-bounty-report-retrospective

@bender@twtxt.net 🤣

Yes you can make an arrow facing west, add water and the arrow suddenly faces east when you look into the medium affect. It demonstrates the property of mediums.

My To Learn list is getting bigger and bigger, ADHD is looking at me funny. 😅
/ME screaming at the mirror: WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT LIKE THAT!!? DO YOU WANT!?

Need more peeps in my clan. Anyone around playing Diablo IV? 😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de so, you keep lots of monologues. That’s the best “conversation” to keep! LOL.

(Another weird/funny thing is that I tend to “overload” other people on WhatsApp. I use it on the desktop with a proper keyboard, while they all use cell phones. The end result is me being able to type much more text and much faster, so they all fall behind and can’t really reply properly, because it’s such a huge pain to type on a phone …)

It really bugs me when a Web site for a tool has a link called “How It Works”, but the actual information behind that link is “how to use”. A set of operating instructions for a tool and an explanation of the principles that enable the tool to function are two very different things.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Zendesk behaved like total arses on this one. At least that’s what comes across reading one side of the story.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org What do you love about this gist?

Haha, I love it! https://gist.github.com/hackermondev/68ec8ed145fcee49d2f5e2b9d2cf2e52

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt Never ever heard of that. Does this really exist? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net It’s really popular among the general population, yeah. But luckily no official services (like government stuff or doctors) depend on it – yet.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de while on the topic of WhatsApp, Europe is pretty reliant on it, isn’t it? Myself, in the US, exclusively use Messages (a vanilla iOS application) for 99% of my messaging needs. Only have WhatsApp… (what a shocker!) for my European family, and handful of friends. 🥴

There’s this rumor that you can create a WhatsApp account with a burner phone, then link the phone to a browser on your desktop PC (web.whatsapp.com) and never have to use the phone again. This just doesn’t work. Every ~2 weeks, the session in the browser will time out and you have to re-link again. 🙄

Also seen: an eyeless freak of indeterminate species. Swims in the pond and has long toes, like a duck, but lacks toe-webbings (and eyes), unlike a duck.

@xuu@txt.sour.is Seems pretty cool 👌

This is pretty neat! An IP KVM that doesn’t cost a gagillion dollars. I might just back it. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jetkvm/jetkvm

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Just some rubbish trashy youtube videos on stupid crap I don’t believe in 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net What happened now? 🥴

@bender@twtxt.net No no, I’m quite sane 🤣
