Not being allowed to remove an app has lead about two people to switch from windows in the last 10000years.

    Hit Esc then type "q!" <- how hard was that? Don't listen to the vimxit liars

    Don't forget the ':' before the q!, when you type ':' you enter command mode, the q command quits the file and putting an exclamation mark after the q doesn't save the file and forces the file to be closed

    Ok, I may have forgotten about the ":" but I stand by the rest, if you can't remember how to do a qw, then you can't be trusted to write to a file.

    Open a new terminal and type sudo killall vim

    Uhh what hardware isn't working? Is it something really niche? For some reason I like hearing about stuff like that.

    I also keep a windows boot around just for updating my tomtom wirh map updates. Tried under Linux but the mydrive software just will not work. If anyone knows how to update a tomtom rider 400 under Linux, let me know.

    Perhaps you are right, but now those two individuals can finally switch back to using Windows.

    As one of them, no thank you. Windows is doing plenty of other crap and I don’t like and it turns out linux is kinda fun. Also once I finally understand what I’m doing I can set up a home server and other cool stuff.

    Also I’m not european so I can’t actually switch back

    Yeah I’m just a shit programmer. I just have a few old workstations, a desire to eventually set up a jellyfin setup, and little enough knowledge that the beginner guides are often above my level

    honestly, i barely know how to write shit for an arduino. i have no prior experience with software. linux stuff is learning by doing. try something and see if that works. the text tutorials in the documentations are often the best way to install stuff. you'll eventually figure it out.
