Every time I’ve tried helix, as a staunch neovim user, I’ve run up against frustration at the selection-first approach. In helix you have to select the function first, then delete it. In neovim I know that daf will delete the function and the line below it if there is one.

It’s not better or worse IMHO, it’s just different enough that it requires me to go from thinking action-modifier-movement to thinking movement-modifier-action. I’ll probably keep giving it a shot every year or so though, always useful to try tools and see if something fits you better than what you have.

Not the best new password but it’ll do

pre and code I’m pretty sure

Bixby is/was Samsung’s assistant thing. Unrelated to Google’s Gemini

Seems like they meant spines to me? As in those little spikey spines pointing backwards down the esophagus?

No it really wasn’t. “I don’t know much about their grid” means the next “it” in the comment is referring to “their grid”. No ambiguity to be had, friend.

Not the poster you’re responding to by my spouse has snakes and uses our kettle to boil water to thaw out their mice

Also seems like it would be fun to do with rEFInd

And looking glass for good games performance for those select few titles that otherwise refuse

I’d recommend the GPD MicroPC as well, with its utility focus instead of just gaming.

Yep, then realized I’m trans too

Gaston County jail

So strange to see my home county mentioned on the Internet, had to double-take.

You beat me to it, this song is an absolute banger

Are you objectifying me??

Most people pay for that privilege

True. Your response just seemed to imply that the two aren’t comparable in 2025, and they absolutely are.

Kind of, though it’s about the CPU’s clock speed rather than the details of the game.

So, pedantically? no.

Experientially? yes.

You can do live migration like that with qemu, I do it all the time with Proxmox, which uses qemu under the hood.

The only things I’ve seen it do better than I could manage with a script or in Vim are things that require natural language comprehension. Like, “here’s an email forwarded to an app, find anything that sounds like a deadline” or “given this job description, come up with a reasonable title summary for the page it shows up on”… But even then those are small things that could be entirely omitted from the functionality of an app without any trouble on the user. And there’s also the hallucinations and being super wrong sometimes.

The whole thing is a mess

And a clear lack of understanding of what the turbo button actually did

Yeah that’s a fair way to look at it
