Press 'Esc', and then 'ZZ'

Why would you want to do that? Vim is efficiency. Without vim, you're wasting your life.

[–] TrustingZebra@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I know exactly what you mean. Let me tell you why you're here. You're here because you know something. What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to me. Do you know what I'm talking about?

It's all around.

For the longest time I thought that answer was Ctrl-Z

[–] BananaOnionJuice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Same here in the beginning I used

Ctrl-z

kill %1

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Restart the computer ;)

opening vim is like entering purgatory

When he logs out the NPCs around him only then realise they might be NPCs and start freaking out, hoping that they too can log out. Because if they can't then they're not real...

[–] TheSaus@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Of course as soon as i start watching jujutsu kaisen i start seeing references/memes from it, not that i’m complaining that show is fuckin great lmao

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

If I had the superpower of teleportation, I would do this all day. Watching the ensuing chaos from a rooftop chuckling to myself.

[–] icepuncher69@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is the joke that the universe is a simulation and we are like users or something like that? Or at least the guy that managed to log out from the universe.

[–] nailbar@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

He was the only player, the rest of them are NPCs.

Virtue is only virtue in extremis.

Down-voters not getting the reference... Real Reddit moment here.

[–] whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I upvoted without getting it! What kind of moment is it?

[–] MajorHavoc@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The Doctor (who I believe this quote is from) has a habit of repeating a meaningless-without-context phrase rather than explaining, when asked what they mean.

Btw, i broke Windows yesterday and shutdown doesn't work anymore.

Send help.

[–] Neato@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Did you kill lsass.exe? I did that and it took away power options. It did restart after a minute.

Imagine you're walking along and someone near you says what the dude in panel one says, then disappears. Pretty sure you'd have doubts about your own reality.

[–] lowleveldata@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Right, but why would everyone want to logout? If you don't remember how you login you're probably a npc. I'm not sure it's a good idea to signal the computer that you want to "exit".

[–] burrito82@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The people in panel 2,3,4 fear they might not be real and just NPCs.

[–] AdmiralShat@programming.dev 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I feel like having the capacity to question your own nature of existence sort of proves the existence to begin with. So if the fear is genuine, they too are genuine. Whether they are in a simulation is still debatable

I think I think, therefore I think I am...

[–] creditCrazy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I think I think therefore I am therefore I think therefore I am… I think?

[–] alokir@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's why in Star Trek the holographic NPCs were programmed to not find this odd. Same when the program took place on Earth in the 20th century, they saw alien species like Klingons as humans.

Do you see any people around who seem to have unlocked the infinite money cheat?
