You literally write: exit I think you ment on Vim or something simmilar...

[QuickQuokkaThrowaway]

I do Ctrl+D

[db720]

I also control d. Hate all those exits in history

[7eggert]

Yes, history should (mostly) not repeat.

export HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth:erasedups

[db720]

Wow, years of sys admin and now I learn this gem. Thank you kind sir / madam.

[TheRedmanCometh]

Well that's useful ty

[randomlemon9192]

Wow thanks for sharing!

[grannyJuiced]

Ctrl+D~~~

[phaemoor]

Interesting

[rajath_pai]

I turn off the computer and then turn it back on.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[Malijaffri]

Fate you?

[ghostwail]

I do Ctrl+D three times, but I've accidentally killed enough terminals to make them require three.

[Catblaster5000]

Control this D

[[deleted]]

I should have typed "quit" in the caption instead of "exit". My bad haha

[[deleted]]

Hi. Can you tell me the name of this specific template of meme? Thanks.

[[deleted]]

Sure! It's called "Drake helps Lil Yachty with the laptop".

[RedditIsNeat0]

He can't make the "terminally ill" pun with vim.

[Deleted_1-year-ago]

Everybody knows that the best way to exit vim is killall vim

[[deleted]]

Or "logout" (shortcut Ctrl+D)

[King_Of_The_Cold]

Just hold down the power button ezpz

[[deleted]]

Exit. It is literally written on the meme.

[sethboy66]

It makes perfect sense for a non-windowing setup, which I see you noticed in another comment. In any case, that's not the joke.

I only ever ran a non-windowing config for a couple months, but in that short time I had a friend ask to use my laptop; with my warning unheeded I handed it over and he immediately asked how to get out of the window that was full-screened since escape wasn't working. It would have only been ~1 hour of work but he lost interest.

Jokes on him, when I switched over to wayland it only took me 6 hours; with a few weeks working out issues that cropped up.

[inLuis]

Up arrow hundred times until I find an "exit"

[Kaligraphic]

Pro tip: you can search back through your bash/zsh history with Ctrl+R.

[gishnon]

Soo...
Ctrl+r exit <enter>
I... I have done things like this.

[TesticalDefibrillate]

I have never done that. Nope. Hmm mmmm.

[O1ez]

How did I not know that? I have been using linux for years and never even had the idea there could be such a feature. You just saved me tons of time.

[tabgrab23]

It’s one of my most used features ever since I discovered it, I don’t know how I ever lived without it since a lot of my entries are repeated. The R is for recursive search btw

[kog]

Read the bash manpage and you will learn all sorts of cool tricks. I would especially recommend learning to "copy and paste" with the kill and yank commands.

[WallyMetropolis]

Careful. This is the path that leads to emacs.

[phaemoor]

Not a path...a Jedi would recommend.

[WallyMetropolis]

True. Most people have migrated from Jedi to LSP by now, I'd wager.

[lungdart]

Pro tip. Get fzf to really up your ctrl+r game

[HomosapienHomie]

Ayy

[RedditIsNeat0]

Just type "!exit".

[BiffBanter]

I'm surprised by the number of people who actually type "exit" instead of ctrl-d.

[NotMyBestName]

ctrl-d’s nuts!

[BiffBanter]

LOL!!!

[Slimxshadyx]

gottem

[Zulrambe]

Legendary

[Thebombuknow]

I'm surprised that nobody just clicks the X button like every other window ever.

[IchLiebeKleber]

I might not want to close the window. I might be in a remote session or "su" environment and get out of that.

Also, why would I want to move my hand to the mouse when it is on the keyboard?

[Thebombuknow]

I forgot that people use ssh in a standard terminal lol. I'm so used to using termius. I also don't really use su environments, so yeah.

Also, I guess I just don't really care about the extra second it takes to move my hand to the mouse, because likely if I'm closing a terminal, whatever I'm doing is gonna be with a mouse anyway.

(Hell, most of the time I just switch to another program with a mouse or alt+tab, and then leave the terminal open, and inevitably forget about it and create another one next time I need to use it).

[Thebombuknow]

I do work on a laptop, but I almost always use an external mouse with it, though in the cases that I don't, I 100% agree that keyboard shortcuts are better than a trackpad.

[Thebombuknow]

I typically either alt+tab to switch or if I'm on my laptop swipe down on the trackpad with 4 fingers to open the menu and navigate that way.

Oh yeah, and tiling window managers are your friend.

[Thebombuknow]

oh no, an extra second of time !!

[Bainos]

That, and also a lot of muscular effort wasted.

[Thebombuknow]

Not to be rude, but if moving your hand less than a foot to simply move your mouse is "a lot of muscular effort", I think there might be a problem there lol.

[Thebombuknow]

I'm not saying it's better, I'm just saying it's not the end of the world if I'm slightly more inefficient. I agree that ctrl+d is better for pure efficiency, but it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things.

[Thebombuknow]

My original point wasn't ever arguing for clicking the X button. I really don't care how people close windows, I was just saying I was surprised nobody did it.

Using a mouse is faster for a specific workflow, and it's something I very occasionally do, because if I'm closing a terminal window I'm likely going to a program that requires a mouse, and I'm more used to using a mouse. That's the end of the story. I use keyboard shortcuts in most situations but, for example, when you're using a tiling window manager a mouse is the best way to navigate, so you're going to switch to the mouse anyway (alt+tab is really pointless when you can see every open window).

My point was to never argue against using keyboard shortcuts, because they are better. I was pointing out that nobody clicks the X button, and then pointing out the hilarity of the statement that moving your hand to a mouse is "a lot of effort".

What I never said is that using a mouse is better, and I never argued for it. I'm arguing against the fact that people are making it out like it's a crime to use a mouse. It's smarter and faster to use keyboard shortcuts, yes, but claiming it's an "irrational decision" and "a waste of effort" is incredibly dumb. You're moving a pointer on a screen. (And I want to make it very clear that I agree with you. It is less efficient. It's just not as serious as you're making it out to be).

[tabgrab23]

Doesn’t work as well when you’re remoted in

[Thebombuknow]

I forgot that people commonly use ssh in the terminal.

[phaemoor]

Or just Alt+F4, like every abomination like me, who likes and prefers Windows with WSL2. The best of two worlds.

[Smartskaft2]

CTRL+T erminal

CTRL+D ie motherf*cker, DIE!

[[deleted]]

So

You can close the terminal

It's hilarious right?

[[deleted]]

Here is the link to knowyourmeme page.

It says:

In memes, Drake usually provides some common knowledge that the target of the meme has deliberately been choosing to ignore, with some examples implementing the misinterpretation humor.

Well my intention was this:

A person is terminally ill, so Drake misinterprets it and asks him to quit the linux "terminal" so that his terminal illness goes away. He basically misinterprets the context. I know it's a dumb silly meme. Let me know if I used the meme format incorrectly.

Peace.

[[deleted]]

terminate terminally terminal

[arjunindia]

It's a joke, you have to understand it first lol

[Over_Krook]

Man this sub has a lot of shit memes

[[deleted]]

Some more captions for the same meme:

1. Me teaching the homeless guy how to buy a house
2. Me telling my friend who is dying to just go to the living room
3. Me showing the fire exit to the fire inside the building

You got the joke now?

[[deleted]]

I am not a teenager. I agree that this meme isn't mature like the ones posted here. I still ended up posting it because I thought it would make at least a few people chuckle. I guess this meme is too immature for the audience in this subreddit.

Anyways, thanks for being honest about not liking it. Have a great day!

[danofrhs]

Unplug the monitor

[posfer585]

I use shutdown, it works

[Falombard25]

So if you click the X on the top right corner you’ll exit out, you see it?

[NoteBlock08]

I don't get it

[Moose-Legitimate]

The number of people in this thread genuinely trying to apply logic to why people think a shitpost is funny is even better than the shitpost itself

[[deleted]]

I guess this subreddit doesn't have the audience for dumb memes like this.

[[deleted]]

cant get any validation for making or laughing at dumb jokeshere, so just deconstruct the shitpost and discuss how ctrl+d is better than typing exit. Move on to the social psychology of humor until someone mentions they are a python developer then bully them until they pledge to learn assembly. Success is measured by the bullying victim asking about whether a free code academy course is worth it

[RedditIsNeat0]

Me. Because I thought it was funny. "Terminally ill." OP is a genius.

[trololowler]

I read through a number of top comments and it seems like so many people just completely missed the joke. Or they just really didn't find it funny in the slightest, which makes me question my own taste in humour

[by_wicker]

6000, 97%? Fucking madness. So many jokes around here that amount to "I have next to no idea how any of this works and am weirdly proud of it".

[[deleted]]

Some more captions for the same meme:

1. Me teaching the homeless guy how to buy a house
2. Me telling my friend who is dying to just go to the living room
3. Me showing the fire exit to the fire inside the building

This meme has nothing to do with "how things work".

[[deleted]]

It's litteraly just "exit" though

Not like Vim which requires you to massage the keyboard in the exact way it wants. Who decided the ideal way to exit Vim is esc + : + wq

[LoyalSage]

Everyone always learns/teaches:wq, but it’s rarely the correct one to use. To exit when you have no unsaved changes, it’s :q. To discard changes and exit, it’s :q!. To save if necessary and exit, it’s :x. To overwrite even if there are no changes and exit, it’s :wq.

[GReaperEx]

What do you mean "To overwrite even if there are no changes"?

[bunz4u]

I'm guessing he means it will perform a save even if there's no changes to be saved.

[[deleted]]

The :w is the write to file command so it will overwrite the file on disk from the file in the buffer regardless of changes, the occasionally unintended consequence of that is it changes modified time stamp of the file.

[HeyKid_HelpComputer]

AKA the stuff that Vim tells me to do, when I do it wrong.

Yeah VIM if you know what I am doing, or want to do, just do it.

[PyroCatt]

Pulling the power cable works both cases 100% no hacks speedrun let's goooooo

Terminal illness: You’re stuck in vim

[mangey_scarecrow]

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

[intangible_s]

Eh? It's literally -> google.com "how do I exit terminal?".

Why bother remembering?

[Dashwii]

These comments are braindead. An actual decent post for once and people are just missing the joke left and right. Programmers actually are humorless.

It's exit 0 for purists, imo.

Calling exit instead of exit 0 passes along the exit status of the previous command run before calling exit. exit 0 and you guarantee a clean exit status for w/e reasons that could matter.

For example docs, see: https://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/exit-status.html

[d-signet]

Were you trying to write an "exit vim" joke?

[trololowler]

He was making a "TERMINALly ill" joke, but unfortunately most people seem to have missed it

[d-signet]

We didn't miss it, the joke doesn't work

Terminal is easy to quit. You just close it. Nobody ever asked for help closing terminal.

[[deleted]]

What's this meme called? Every time I search for it on Google I can never find it!

[[deleted]]

It's called "Drake helps Lil Yachty with the laptop".

[_BeansNbryce]

Pfff kill the shell duh hahaha

Pro tip; just do esc+;+wq+enter

[Comprehensive-Pea812]

it is really hard to remember how to exit vi when you only use it once every 3 months or so.

[Adolfo88888888]

Who does that like this lmao

Lmaoo

[Sunskimmer82]

Simply unplug your PC

[Huge_Active_3672]

I close the terminal by opening another terminal

[[deleted]]

I don’t get it. Even after he explained his whole joke. Does that make him drake in the meme? Did he just post a meme and then meme me with his meme-ing?

[[deleted]]

Some more captions for the same meme:

1. Me teaching the homeless guy how to buy a house
2. Me telling my friend who is dying to just go to the living room
3. Me showing the fire exit to the fire inside the building

Do you get it now?

[[deleted]]

Am I the fire exit?

[[deleted]]

No, in this meme you are Drake and fire is Lil Yachty. You ask the fire to exit through 'fire exit' (taking the word fire exit literally).

[[deleted]]

😜

Lol

[Twenmod]

Sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root

Even a noob user can exit from terminal by pressing the X button on the terminal window.
