But it’s shorter!

Not a 7900 but my 5900 does for sure.

I’m not super-familiar with mod managers in general but my experience has been that they just work with proton more than you might expect. I know for sure that unity mod manager works fine in proton; I use it for railroader.

It’s definitely a thing.

It’s definitely an AMD graphics card crash.

Yes. You could use vlc or even as an iso file just open them as a virtual drive.

CTRL-tilde or CTRL-backtick?

It actually works, without a bunch of insane weird behavior.

As a sometimes Windows admin, I completely agree. Plus so many things that become simple one-liners instead of taking forever farting around in a GUI tool where a little misclick screws up everything and documentation requires 27 pages of giant screenshots.

That’s good to know. It’s interesting that the other commenter thinks emacs shortcuts are illogical. I’ll make my best guesses at the logic

• ctrl-a/ctrl-e for start/end of line

a is the beginning of the alphabet; e for end (of line)

• ctrl-u to clear the command you’ve typed so far but store it into a temporary pastebuffer
• ctrl-y to paste the ctrl-u’d command

No idea here. Seems similar to nano with k-“cut” and u-”uncut”.

• ctrl-w to delete by word

w for word obviously.

• ctrl-r to search your command history
• alt-b/alt-f to move cursor back/forwards by word

r reverse, b back, f forward. Not sure why alt vs control though; presumably ctrl+b and ctrl+f do different things although I know emacs likes to use Alt (“Meta”) a lot.

If you or someone you know wants a taste of that experience on Windows, try out winget or chocolatey.

Why the hell did they misspell (and presumably mispronounce) tilde?

I love filter views, no real complaints there except that other people can’t manage to figure out the difference between filtering the whole sheet and setting up a filter view.

Tables seem kind of pointless but better than a separate database app I guess?

Not sure about “little pills”, do you mean the drop downs? That’s in validation, and it’s a little odd but better both in interface and function than Excel. There’s really only one version and two ways to do it: “data validation” and “insert drop-down” (the latter is just a shortcut to the former, but with relevant options selected). Checkboxes are the same (both live in the insert menu).

I’ve never known the “paste style” menu, I mostly use keyboard shortcuts when pasting. I might be misunderstanding what you’re describing there.

Some of it is just familiarity but I found Google sheets to be a breath of fresh air and still find Excel just painful.

Although Google has really gotten pretty cluttered lately as they add features and slap them in whatever menu they pick at random.

Similar but with an interface that refuses to do anything new for 20 years.

Yeah but those extra steps are important ones.

As long as you don’t rely on the UI design matching, it is fine.

I dunno that I’d consider Brave to be “the right thing” but more variety/competition is best!

I’d describe it as making computer systems reliable.

Why is that? What do you feel is the downside?
