Vim/Neovim has orgmode too, these days 🤪

At times, I’ve also juggled (in addition to vim and tmux) hotkeys for my current tiling WM of choice and extra hotkeys to swap between machines via barrier. I’m not sure how I’m able remember what I had for breakfast, much less someone’s name.

Not sure if directly relevant, but there’s been a rush of really good PC games lately after a long dry spell.

It warmed my nerd heart that the first thing I spotted in the mpvpaper repo was an animated Steins Gate background.

I suspect there’s some variance between distros that would alter your opinion slightly, but I can also still appreciate the before-systemd days where some Linux versions kept the important bits in a single rc file. Your preference is understandable.

As others have stated, the cleanest option for a single monitor setup is to either share a specific window, or start making use of multiple virtual desktops, sometimes referred to as workspaces. Windows, Mac, and Linux are all capable of it, now - the only difference is how you set up, arrange, and navigate them.

Linux options offer the most versatility, Mac’s implementation is a decent balance between ease of use and scalability (with caveats), and the Windows native implementation is the newest entrant to this playing field… but it’s an adequate offering that gets the job done for this use case.

As a Texan, I feel I have the right to ask this very important question…

Has anyone else noticed how the symmetry of the inner and outer shape of a cowboy hat is strongly reminiscent of an inverted toilet bowl?

Just curious.

When a small but dedicated group of vocal people started unironically and emphatically believing the planet was a pancake, I lost a significant portion of my lingering reserves of hope for the future of mankind.

Extremist politics and all the associated mindsets have long since jumped a row of sharks in my mind by comparison.

Real nerds use Ctrl [ instead so they don’t leave home row.

The only thing that’s halted my rampant use of vim is… Neovim.

I do it all the time. 🤪

I can navigate and organize my own notes 10 times faster than if I used most alternatives, especially with plugins like Neorg that support visually distinct markup output via concealer configs. There’s even a presentation mode.

This. Esc, then b. Or if you’re a stickler for keeping you hands on home row, Ctrl [ does the trick as well. Bonus points for making that more comfortable via a remapping of Caps Lock to control (or swapping the two).

I find it ironic to this day that, after having spent so much time identifying the most fitting tiling window manager for my needs (i3), my journey through GNU Screen to tmux resulted in an almost complete absence of necessity for tiling at all. Heck, if it weren’t for my gaming and streaming needs, I actually could skip X entirely.
