I don’t know, as a ttrpg’er, I’m being someone else every two weeks for three hours are a time. ;)

My least favorite is

Just be yourself!

Even in grade school I knew this was hogwash. I didn’t act the same in class as during recess, or in church as when at the dinner table. Exactly which me was I supposed to be? When someone asks, “What am I supposed to do?” They are really asking, “How should I behave?” And if you’ve never been on a date before, or this is your first job interview, then it’s not obvious.

A: “So, how did the interview go?”

B: “Not so well, he threw my resume away, in front of me, and ordered me to leave.”

A: “What? Why?”

B: “Well, I did just as your said, I was being myself. I walked in, gave him the ol’ finger guns, then started with my best fart joke.”

A: “Why the hell would you do that at an interview?”

B: “Because that routine always slays in the dorms and I was trying to be myself.”

I wondered about this for years and years, never understanding, especially, since “having cake” and “eating cake” are used interchangeably. But, I finally figured it out! In this sense, the “having” is equivalent to “keeping” or “being in possession of.”

Examples:

• “What’s it like having a Mercedes Benz?”
• “The Smiths have a very nice home.”

No eating implied!

Therefore, the saying is more inline with “You can’t keep (to show off or admire) your cake, and eat it, too.”

Do you have to supply credentials? something like prefixing the domain name with “user:password@” or do you have something set-up in .netrc?

I answered my own question by just trying it, and it worked as expected. Thanks for the great idea!

I’ve never seen that in a .gitignore, seems straightforward enough. I guess most people prefer to use the git config option, but this works!

Of those mentioned, this one intrigues me most. Thanks!

Ahh, to be only 30 again!

I’ve never heard of cp -faTs before. I did some experimenting and was surprised that it was recursive. I thought you needed an -R for that, but you don’t. So, cp -faRTs appears to do the same thing, but is funnier.

In any case, thanks for sharing your repo. I take it, that after the initial install, you can just repeatedly git pull https://git.sr.ht/~igemnace/vim-config and then run vim-config/scripts/install-cfg to keep your config files up-to-date.
