Wow, it's like if the Phoronix forums didn't have its sane element. Is this representative of Artix users generally?

I think scaled is better than hot otherwise you'll never see anything from your small communities.

Not quite what you were asking for, but there is https://tomgroenwoldt.github.io/helix-shortcut-quiz/

It's quite good for letting you know about things you didn't know you could do, but sometimes it tells me I'm wrong because I'd do it a different way - e.g. I'd go to line 13 by :13 but it wants 13G.

Also, from within Helix you can do space ? to get the list of commands and any bindings they're on.

edit: also, FYI Helix and similar are modal, not modular (although there is a plugin system on the way).

None of the books I've bought from kobo.com have DRM.

While I don't disagree, this article is pretty bad and unconvincing. Is it a draft or something dashed out to collect referral fees?

I've had salted egg yolk crisps and they are indeed really good. I want to try oyster and vinegar - I love vegetables in oyster sauce.

Pairing is an idea that's kinda obvious in hindsight but I'd never heard of it before.

My first Gentoo install was also because it was an ageing laptop that was too slow for anything else. Luckily it wasn't my only machine, since the install times for some things were quite long.

I don't know enough to know how correct your pedantry is (technically or not), but to explain the meme it made sense to go through the symbols in the order you see them. I never got any points from the proof questions in exams anyway.

Bravo! If this is a harbinger of the memes that we can expect from Davulcan Mitchell, then it's going to be good.

I seem to use movie when describing the blockbuster/B-movie end of the scale, and film when talking about a quality bit of cinema. But I also am more likely to call a US flick a movie and a Brit one a film.

I like the sound of the word autumn, and particularly autumnal. I can see those reds and browns and feel the crisp air. Fall does give more opportunity for puns and easier rhymes, I guess.

It's not the same expression. I mean "a bug" as in a software error and "on my side" as in it's not Lemmy's fault.

Now I see that OP is the creator of the tumblr clone Wafrn I'm sure it's just a typo and that this is the intended meaning.

I thought that, and nearly didn't read the article, but it's really interesting - and useful to have these refutations to anyone who trots out these lies/distortions when talking to you.

Not that arguing with facts is actually going to change their mind, but at least you can feel good about winning the argument!

edit: I posted some notes as a top-level comment
