My father is a leftie and as a young child I found it cool that he could do stuff with left hand while I was only able to use my right.

That inspired me to learn how to use both arms and that really has been a blessing - being ambidexterous is awesome. It was especially great when I finally learned to stick weld with my left hand. So many impossible corners are just corners now.

To my knowing there’s round 5% of people that are totally left handed or totally right handed. Every one else, please learn to use your non dominant hand.

I will not make vim my sweet as it is optimized for us keyboard. Most of the shortcuts are awful in my native (Finnish) layout. As much of a heretic I am, there is a place for mouse and windowing display managers.

What I do miss from the Redmont dystopia is Notepad++. Can do anything, can be explained over the phone.

That’s the way it works. I had an uncle with multiple sclerosis (spelling?). He used to get his PC infected with all sorts of ransomware back in late 90’s. For him credit card was the answer, luckily his siblings mostly got somebody to clean the shit up.
