Is mansplaining short for manualsplaining?

[-] shittydwarf@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 year ago
[-] alk@lemmy.blahaj.zone 33 points 1 year ago

Or mam. Obviously, short for mamual.

[-] DasFaultier@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

Hmm, no, very mamualian.

Another reason to use Emacs: woman pages

[-] judgyweevil@feddit.it 3 points 1 year ago

Or, you know, make an alias

[-] HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago

I think they wanted to rep Emacs though

[-] 404@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

Might as well do alias nvim=vim while you're at it

[-] ftbd@feddit.org 1 points 1 year ago

I actually do that on machines that don't have nvim, because that's easier than adjusting my muscle memory

[-] MTK@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

It is man as in Manual.

Because the person that wrote it was Manual Ligma

How many natural language search tools for GNU manuals have been written and called "mansplain?"

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

I know you're joking but I have talked to people before arguing things like "human being" being anti feminist because it should be huwoman or some shit like that.

I know, crazies, but there have been a lot of them

Having said that, just the obligatory "I don't care if you're man woman trans or whatever, as long as you're happy and don't be a dick to other people"

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 of any kind will not be tolerated. This is an LGBTQ+-friendly community -- if that is a problem for you, you should leave.
  • 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.

    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.
