I use:

  • DuckDuckGo
  • Neovim
  • ~~rusty~~ dusty IdeaPad
  • ~~Arch~~ NixOS btw

I don't read man pages but I read documentation.

Am I also a psychopath?

Is this supposed to be a joke or have we truly gotten to the point where ... coding in a terminal via like hyprland or w/e, without relying on an what is basically an annoying tutorial character from a video game that acts as an assistant...

This is psycopathy?

Having actual competence in one's field?

Oh god we're all doomed, they'll soon be alternating between worshipping us demigods, or burning us at the stake.

EDIT:

Welp, I'm sure thats a good sign, lol.
