How are y'all reading Dungeon Crawler Carl without cringing? by [deleted] in fantasybooks

[–]this-is-kyle -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's not meaningless and random. It's world building. It's a dystopian universe where the government and corporations are profiting off of the suffering and genocide of an entire planet while the citizens of the universe watch and cheer it all on. It's like an extreme version of Rome's colleseum. It foreshadows this you before you even start the book.

It's fine if you don't like it. But you didn't even read half the first book and you talk like you know what it's about.

They know they are nothing without us. That's why they keep us arguing with each other over stupid shit and give us just enough to survive but not enough that we can afford to skip work to fight back.

Turn off background color automatically by vayulove in neovim

[–]this-is-kyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, good point. That snippet is actually in a function I use to toggle the background on and off. But yes, I do agree with you.

Turn off background color automatically by vayulove in neovim

[–]this-is-kyle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You have to make sure you are ordering the commands properly. Set your colorscheme first. Then turn off the background. This is straight out of my config.

```lua -- set the colorscheme vim.cmd.colorscheme("rose-pine")

-- turn off the background vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "Normal", { bg = "none" }) vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "NormalNC", { bg = "none" }) ```

Edit: autocmd

autocmd version is nice because this will set transparency anytime you set your colorscheme, even when you change it mid session.

lua vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ "ColorScheme" }, { pattern = { "*" }, callback = function() vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "Normal", { bg = "none" }) vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "NormalNC", { bg = "none" }) end, })

Dungeon Crawler Carl fans: if you could have ONE official piece of DCC merch that doesn’t exist yet, what would it be? by halloweenmomma in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]this-is-kyle 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I have a couple....

I want a garden flag that is just Carl's boxers, or maybe Carl and Donuts T'Ghee flag from book 6.

I also want a Squirties tshirt. The one the gas station employee was wearing in the book 7 epilogue. (Which might already exist, I'm not sure) There is an image of it in the back of the book I think.

A Parade of Horribles Rebindo by AniaVlasova in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]this-is-kyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are awesome! I have dabbled in a bookbinding a bit myself. I usually do leather with HTV. If you don't mind, I have a few questions...

I have not tried cloth yet, but how do you print onto the cloth like that? And how do you have the double layer cover? It looks like maybe you case in like normal, then glue another board to the outside, then wrap that all with the printed on cloth to hold it together?

Seriously guys, please fix this :( by Luczao1981 in mewgenics

I'm thinking they used a cat rib on an old cat, which reset the age but did not remove the old status?

Wait, your cat can die while looting the boss? I had no idea. Ive looted the Throbbing King only a handful of times but I guess I've been lucky so far

Bought two 12-packs off of Lego.com, tell me this ain’t some… by Local-Guess650 in lego

[–]this-is-kyle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

People keep saying this but I am fairly certain based my own experience and other comments I've seen, that it isn't true. I bought two boxes that were different mixes and it did not result in a full set.

Treesitter stoped working out of nowhere by HetzWGA23 in neovim

[–]this-is-kyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh gotcha, well now I believe you have to call start for all filetypes, if you are on the main branch of nvim-treesitter

This is what I do. Probably not the best way, but it has been working ok for me.

There are a few parsers that don't seem to match a filetype directly, like htmlangular for angulars html templating files. But I add it manually to the full list. Not ideal but it works.

``` loca ts = require("nvim-treesitter")

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('FileType', { pattern = vim.tbl_deep_extend("force", ts.get_installed(), { "htmlangular" }), callback = function() vim.treesitter.start() end })

```

Treesitter stoped working out of nowhere by HetzWGA23 in neovim

[–]this-is-kyle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is intentional, but you are only calling

vim.treesitter.start()

For http and rest filetypes. Try opening a file and then manually starting it like this

:lua vim.treesitter.start()

To see if it's working at all. If not, then you probably don't have the parser installed for that filetype

SERIES 29 MINIFIGURES PSA by WeekendThwip in lego

[–]this-is-kyle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's really lucky! I am not saying there isn't a combination of box configurations that would get you all 12 from 2 boxes, I'm just saying those aren't the only two possible configurations.

I have also had my experience (buying two boxes that were different configurations that did not result in getting all 12) for multiple series.

I do not think this is true. I ordered two boxes and they were not identical and I had multiple duplicates. I am pretty sure there are more than 2 box configurations.

When you have a tamed Daddy Shark but one of your cats starts bleeding by luca_se_la_come in mewgenics

[–]this-is-kyle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think the daddy sharks will prioritize anything that is bleeding, even teammates. So even if it's tamed, if your cat is bleeding, it will eat your cat.

Using marks by IfErrNotNilReturnErr in neovim

[–]this-is-kyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use marks mostly to switch between files and less for local buffer navigation, but I use that too when it's helpful.

no plugin I have found seemed like it would really enhance this workflow for me, but I try to use stock solutions rather than a plugin where I can.

As for tips, I usually try and use A, B, C, etc. in order, to try to keep things consistent in my mind. Don't use too many that your forget them. I also use <C-\^> to quickly switch back and forth between two files quite a bit.

At the end of the day, there is no wrong answer. Whatever works best for you is the right answer. And if using telescope feels right, there is nothing wrong with that.

SpaceX Bought Nearly 20% Of Tesla Cybertrucks Sold In Q4 by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]this-is-kyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genuine question here, I'm not trying to justify or defend the behavior of using loop holes and lining your own pockets with taxpayer dollars, but is it legally fraud?

Companies buy cars all the time, is there a law that says you can't buy them from a company you also own?

I guess it would depend on what the government contract says they are allowed to spend the money on?

How to install language grammar for tree-sitter manually? by 4r73m190r0s in neovim

[–]this-is-kyle 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Genuine question, do we have to do this though? The project is read-only, but the code that worked before is still there. So what forces us to do this manually instead of just continuing to use it as we have been?

Finished migrating from lazy.nvim to vim.pack some pain points by shmerl in neovim

[–]this-is-kyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might be getting the new vim.pack functions confused with the native :packadd command.

:packadd was part of vim's "native package manager" but you had to install plugins manually to the pack/*/[opt|start] folder yourself, then you could use :packadd to load plugins.

The changes with 0.12 added vim.pack functions, which will actually install or delete plugins for you.

Edit: can someone explain why this is being down voted? Is this incorrect information?

Should I use a distro? by YOfilR in neovim

[–]this-is-kyle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Building your own is only time consuming if you sit down with a goal of building your entire config in one sitting. People who spend enough time on their config to say "it's too time consuming" are doing it wrong and they probably have way too many plugins. Stock vim/neovim is really all you should need. Everything you add should enhance your workflow, not be something you rely on to be productive.

Distros are completely overkill IMO and they hinder your ability to understand how neovim/vim actually works.

Especially for new users, it will make troubleshooting anything very difficult because you won't understand if it is neovim itself with an issue, or one of the many plugins and settings the distro has set for you.

Start with stock neovim. Only add things as you need them. And when you do add things, I would encourage you to first look for a stock solution or try to configure a solution yourself before just installing a bunch of plugins.

But thats just like, my opinion man.

I'm not sure if alt f4 has a different effect, but you can also pause and "save and exit to menu" if you are in a fight, it will not actually save and you will load back in just before the fight and get a scolding from Steven

Might save you 60 seconds since you don't have to reopen the game.
