It is really funny to me just how full of cope the vim documentation is

linux users will try to convince you that vim is a good text editor. next thing you know you're here, at rock bottom

[brightgreendandelions]

vim is actually much easier to use than people tell you. if you know like these 7 basic commands by heart, it's already better than nano.

ZZ -- exit vim

i -- insert

y -- copy

v -- select

p -- paste

d -- delete

/ -- search (just like in less)

everyone keeps talking about the hjkl keys, but you don't have to use them!! the arrow keys work just fine, plus you can use them in insert mode.

like "23<DOWN>" works. "d3<DOWN>" works. everything works.

VIM is the best text editor, and Google's recent statement confirms this.

Někdo řekněte českým režisérům, že můžeme točit i něco jinýho než pohádky, historický filmy a blbý sexuální komedie

i feel like a lot of Discourse (read: fandom wank) happens in places that have forgotten or never learned the death of the author theory

(which i know is not sacrosanct but it is very useful for handling fandom spaces, particularly fraught ones)

for those who don't know, the death of the author theory goes like this: as far as the work is concerned, the author dropped dead the second that the final word was published, and thus cannot comment, object to, clarify, or expand on anything that is not on the page.

my understanding is that it's most strictly used to mean that that the author's interpretation of the work doesn't matter, but can be expanded to state that nothing which is not on the page matters. imo, the expanded definition is particularly useful for fandoms and needs to be adopted on a larger scale.

because what it means is this:

it doesn't matter what the creator(s) intended. it doesn't matter what they said in an interview. it doesn't matter what the actors think, it doesn't matter what supplemental materials say or imply, even if they're signed off on by the creator(s). it doesn't matter if everyone involved in making it hates your interpretation and says that it's wrong.

they don't get to say that it's wrong. they dropped dead the second the last episode/book ended. their interpretation is simply one more in a vast sea of others.

listen to me, fandom spaces. i am taking your face in both of my hands. embrace the death of the author. you will no longer be bound to the (possibly fickle) words of the creator(s), your interpretation can no longer be the wrong one. if the text can be used to support it in any way, even twisty ways, it's valid. you don't have to jump through hoops to defend it against haters who say you're wrong.

the death of the author. open your heart to it. live it. be free.
