The paiiiin! How many hours I lost because of this?

Yes, (neo)vi(m) has different modes, in normal mode the characters are shortcuts, hjkl is used for navigation. However other methods are prefered, w, e, b - jumping words, f,t - jumping to a specific character etc. Its way faster. Also it can be combined d2w (d)eletes the next (2) (w)ord. Or more advanced di" (d)eletes the text (i)nside the "..."

Insert mode is what you except: it writes what you type. Can be accessed by i - (i)nsert before a - (a)append after. Going back to normal mode is ESC (or many configure tab)

I am happy that I've been useful 😄 The experience on windows will always be worse than on linux sadly. But I have no choice, I have to use winslop for work, so I made it work. 😅

I experienced the same bug in winslop: It is not the neovim fault, but the terminal emulator. While WT (default for 11) is good enough, for some computers it is pretty laggy. I recommend wezterm.

Source: I manage many onprem windows PCs with automation, and some 1 of them experienced this issue.

Great now I procrastinating by watching youtube tutorials about how to be more productive, thanks!

Mine was an early M2 variant, it was without docs and even the image was removed from the offical site. I used a headless raspbian which was unstable, but it worked for years as a home server, until a lightingstrike fried it...

I wonder how these alt Pis are flaring in common Pi work (like running Home Assistant). I had a Banana Pi once, it was half the cost two times the power, but had way too many issues to be worth it.

Banking and other finance related services are the only place where I don't mind KYC. Others I drop as soon as they request it and I seek alternatives.

But I will drop my online bank as well as soon google enforce the 'only verified developer applications'. 90% of my applications, incuding system applications like laucher, are not installed from the play store. I plan to switch to a linux 'phone' and only use services which are usable from a browser / without google securnet.

pls dont, HDD prices are on the rise as well. Just full format 😅

I went nuclear, when gaming was still hit or miss (only wine existed) since I only installed windows to update my BIOS. I advise to use a separate harddrive and do not do as I did: Used gparted to separate space for windows in my data drive, installed, updated the BIOS, used gparted to recover my initial state. I was sweating the whole time, but all of my data was intact.

Simple: I already migrated most of my friends over Signal. I did not know better alternatives at the time. While I agree with you, not about SimpleX I dont have enough info about it, but about that there are better solutions.

We have to choose our threat level. Signal is great when you don't want to expose your data to companies mining it for their profit. It is not so great when you are a person of interest, and need absolute privacy.

The metadata is worthless and pricy to use it for an awarage joe.
