I use them fine with my left hand. There's no reason to stay on home row if you're doing a lot of copy and paste. Of course, if you're doing that much copy and paste, using an extension that allows VIM shortcuts would be much faster.

If you don't like BÉPO because you want familiar letter-based clipboard shortcuts, you've already made a better layout selection impossible. I learned to use the older clipboard shortcuts: ctrl+ins for copy, shift+ins for paste, and shift+del for cut. Those are still as universally supported.

She said she didn't have space to move over.

If you want everything bundled instead of à la carte, that sounds more like eclipse to me. But then, I don't understand how anyone can program in Java.

I think that aphorism is about authority-respect rather than basic-human-decency-respect.

This thread makes me wonder how much contemporary American English is to blame for people being able to exploit ambiguities surreptitiously. Dog whistles have to start somewhere, they don't seem to be prearranged.

I think the rationale is that, when it's a single individual, they can't pass the buck or blame the group. It's a final appeal at a human level.

The trick is not electing a troll.

The "light truck" exemption is a huge problem, and needs to be repealed.

Big cars also reduce everyone else's visibility.

Yes, and if that's the only issue that matters to you, and you ignore the impact on all those other people, I guess that's fair to say they are the same. But does all that extra suffering serve a purpose? Are you volunteering yourself to bear any of it, or only others?

Straw men? You understand that these are actually things that are really happening, right?

The GOP didn't update their platform since, like, 2015, unless you count Project 2025, which Trump claimed to know nothing about. In the 2020 election, it still referenced running against Obama.

I'm more into the FRC.

It would be so much more interesting to see the % of dollars claimed.

Does negging his customers count as an idea?

I mean, they are also responsible for making news a for-profit enterprise, which has arguably ultimately killed it.

Yeah, that's fair.

The FDA was already fucking worthless. I got severe food poisoning from some grocery store pre-boiled eggs some years ago, and when I asked them to look into it to prevent other people getting sick, they just connected me with the grocery store lawyers who were just useless and defensive.

Whatever Happened to the World of Tomorrow? is a really good graphic novel about a kid's relationship with his dad through the lens of retrofuturism, as it gradually tarnishes, starting with the 1939 World's Fair.

I'll probably go to Expo 2025 in Osaka this year, since I'll happen to be there, but it'll be hard to maintain any real optimism.

I see what you're saying, but it sounds a little like "no true Scotsman", too. I guess Occupy probably did this better, but I'm not sure it helped enough.

This is really part of it, but it's not included explicitly in that article like it should be.

Other activists, faith-based leaders and consumers already are organizing boycotts to protest companies that have scaled back their diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, and to oppose President Donald Trump’s moves to abolish all federal DEI programs and policies.
