I'm also on a G14! The wait time for a ThinkPad was 6 weeks when I needed a new laptop, so I just ended up buying a G14 because I couldn't wait. WiFi seems okay for me, I've not had any problems. Restarting X is indeed annoyi

When covid started, I was working for a different company that was traditionally 100% in the office. When we switched to work from home, the number of meetings doubled/tripled and I was definitely procrastinating more. It felt like the

Yeah, it's one of those things where the term everyone uses strayed from the etymology. Probably because in the GitHub UI it still calls this a pull request despite not pulling from a different remote. Either way, if you read the threa

What you are describing, is pretty much exactly how it works at every company I've worked at that used PRs. You create a new branch from master, make your changes, push the branch to github/bitbucket/gitlab, make a PR. While

Hmm, I guess that matters if you are using public servers. If you are running your own server, then it is a non-issue. I still think self hosted mumble is a great solution to the problem. Looking through the privacyguides recommendations[0]

I took a Megabus from Houston to Austin one time, it was honestly the worst bus journey I have ever taken in my life. A man sat down next to me, talking to himself, rocking back and forth holding a screw driver. There were a lot of other &q

Depending on why you're using a VPN, you can just pay for a tiny VPS from ovh/hetzner, setup wireguard and use that as your VPN. Obviously don't do anything illegal, since everything is going through a server that is directly

I absolutely hate cooking, the effort vs reward is just not worth it in my opinion. This led to me living off Huel[0] for a long time (at home anyway). I stopped buying groceries and only ordered Huel. The amount of time it saves and the co

In a past life I used Voltron[0] with lldb. Depending on your use case, it might be enough? Watching what value lives in what register works at least (or at least worked last time I used it). It's designed around having things in separ

You sound just like me! What split keyboard did you end up going with? I used the microsoft keyboard for years as well, but then my shoulders started acting up and I figured I needed a split keyboard and bought a Moonlander.

Oh yeah, I just realized you completely left that stuff out. That's one of my favorite parts of vim and what I find lacking in 'vim mode' plugins. They get the hotkeys right, but they lack the abstractions of tabs/buffer

Hi, great work releasing this! Trying to explain vim concisely is always an interesting challenge and I had a great time reading your attempt in this book. I always find it really interesting on how people try to group certain vim functions

I think it will be very interesting to see what happens when the war ends. If there are significant reparations to be paid and if the sanctions remain, I think this easily opens it up for a repeat of WWII. Similar to post WWI Germany, Russi
