If my laptop suspends (?), the graphics get scrambled. Like, I shut the lid, come back a few hours later, and it’s a completely garbled mess. Happens with Wayland; doesn’t happen with X11.

Trademark. Not copyright. And the part that is covered is Mickey.
This could also be covered under copyright, since the only Mickey that went into public domain is the one from Steamboat Willie, not this one. I’m not a lawyer, though.
It’s still illegal. This version of Mickey Mouse is still covered under trademark law.
What’s funny is that Disney built their empire largely on public-domain works (such as fairy tales), but when it’s their turn to give back, they fight it tooth and nail. Classic getting to the top and then pulling up the ladder behind you.
One word: ergonomics.
With Dvorak, the most commonly-used letters are on the home row. In fact, all of the vowels are on the home row.
The most common letter in English is E, and QWERTY makes you reach for it. You know what IS on the home row? Fuckin’ semicolon! Can you even remember the last time you used a semicolon?
I spend a lot of time at work sitting, so I’d rather have a comfortable chair than an uncomfortable chair. Same with my keyboard: I’d rather have a comfortable layout than an uncomfortable one. Less risk of repetitive strain injury, too.
Some people like vim the way it is. That’s why they haven’t re-invented it. If you want to use a more intuitive text editor, there are plenty available (such as nano or micro).They don’t need to turn vim into a clone of something that already exists.
As for why it’s still the default… It’s the same reason why everybody uses QWERTY keyboards when Dvorak is clearly superior. People already know how to type with QWERTY and they don’t want to take the time to re-learn with a new layout, change their workflows, etc.
It isn’t universal, though. Garuda Linux defaults to micro. The web dev boot camp I was in didn’t bring vim up at all! We only used nano! I think that was a disservice to the students, but the instructors must’ve thought that it would be too confusing.
In most apps, Ctrl-X means “cut”, not “quit”. Especially when it’s a freakin’ text editor!
I will grant you that it’s more intuitive than vi, but that is a very, very low bar.
Why is Ctrl-X intuitive? Shouldn’t it be Ctrl-Q (for “quit”)?
I’ve always had a password. One of the biggest benefits of Linux is security. Why would you undermine that by not using a password?
I don’t think I’ve ever heard vim beep.
Holy shit! Tabs?!
That does it. I’m going back to Windows.
Tabs in a text editor. My mind is blown.
Yeah, but Guake doesn’t slide down like a Quake terminal should. Maybe it sounds like a minor thing, but I think that if you’re trying to imitate a Quake terminal, it at least has to slide down from the top of the screen.
Yakuake. And you can make it transparent, too!
Telling a company to fuck off is much different than telling a person to fuck off.
Physical violence is not an acceptable response to rudeness.
I hate passive-aggressiveness, because I want to know what people really think of me. How can you feel secure if you know that somebody might secretly hate you and is just waiting for the right time to put a knife in your back?
But what about Winidows?
It looks like OP typed it with their forehead.
At least Thunderbird configs are stored in ~/.config/.mozilla/thunderbird. Right? Right…?
