  • Probably the most relatable one around here is the way people on reddit used to talk about bacon - in like 2010s reddit it was almost mythologized, which was weird to me even back then when I still ate and enjoyed bacon. There’s a bunch of other small examples like that I’ve run into pretty regularly that are each innocent on their own but taken all together are just… odd. “Cultish” was probably too strong of a word but I couldn’t think of a better alternative (then or now) for the way some people treat meat so differently than any other type of food, including ones you might expect to be more exciting like deserts or something.

    I’m not one to try to tell people their opinions on subjective stuff are wrong and that’s not what I’m trying to say here, but I just do really think there’s more to the way some people treat meat than just it being a type of food they enjoy. Hopefully that makes some kind of sense lol

    the only* non-zero function whose derivative is itself

    * except its multiples such as −2 𝑒𝑥, which are… just… uh… derivative works

    I think you forgot about e^x + 1, and e^x + 2, and … …

    (My profs always dunked on me for forgetting the + c and I can’t resist doing it to someone else, I’m sorry)

    For real tho, great explanation



  • I never set up text selection and have apparently never tried it till now so that one I can’t help with, but with zsh you can enable ctrl+backspace behaviour by putting bindkey “^H” backward-delete-word in your ~/.zshrc file. Ctrl+delete is bindkey “\e[3;5~” delete-word, in case you also use that one.



  • I have everything you mentioned (except maybe the selection only stuff, I don’t use it and forget if I set it up at all) set up in my zsh+kitty setup, so it’s definitely possible. If you want I can dig thru my zshrc and kitty config for the relevant parts once I’m at my pc later.

    People in here saying it’s a bad idea for things like compatibility with other shells make some good points, but I think they’re missing one important aspect - fuck other shells, what do I care? 95% of my time in the terminal is spent on my own machine and I may as well make it convenient for myself. The odd time I ssh into another box without my keybinds I’ll be a bit less efficient, but that’s a worthwhile trade off imo.



  • Not an overly surprising one, but the arch wiki has been an incredible source of info with no ads, tracking, or any of the modern web bullshit for as long as I’ve used it.

    They’ve been hit with some pretty major DDOS attacks recently and they’ve done a really good job of keeping the important parts of the service as accessible as possible - they haven’t resorted to buying into cloudflare’s monopoly or blocking vpn users despite either or both being the easy way out.

    For anyone else who’s relied on them as much as I have, now would be a great time to donate!
