<kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>V</kbd> doesn't work
-
I haven't been able to paste using ctrl+V in the response editor for many moons now. I remember being able to do it in the early days.
I must be the only one who has this problem, because I've never heard any one else mention it.
But it also seems to happen on both my work and personal machines, so... could it be a chrome plugin?
Just trying to paste plain text or urls. Text copied from another page, another program, the same discourse thread.
Edit: works in firefox
-
Definitely an issue your end :P
-
What are you trying to paste? Text? An image? A file from your file manager?

They changed the key combination. It's now Alt + F4.

Another public service announcement from mot555?

Hold Command and type "QUICK" to make the game run faster!
-
If you hold Ctrl+Alt+SysRq and press B your Linux system will run faster!
-
Make sure to enable it first by typing, in a terminal:
echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq

I can paste, but it usually adds an annoying extra newline for no <raisin>reason.

You need extra newlines elseways the MarkSideways doesn't work.

Assuming that's like the Windows three-finger-salute, what system is that for? I've never seen it before.

If this problem's happening on your phone, then your phone probably needs a quick charge. Be sure to give it a few seconds in the microwave.

Part of the Linux kernel IIRC?
There's a few combinations which are all Ctrl+Alt+SysRq and another character which do things - with B it just reboots. Probably without unmounting anything cleanly.

Any Linux system. And that particular one is more akin to holding down the power button on a modern Windows system rather than the TFS ("You will reboot" rather than "Would you reboot, or give me some options to do so please?")
-
E to tErminate all processes, I to kIll them, U to unmount, S to sync, B to reBoot.
-
I like how Linux has a key combination dedicated to making it crash

I thought that was every key combination on Linux?
E to tErminate all processes, I to kIll them, U to unmount, S to sync, B to reBoot
Presumably that's U for unmoUnt, S is then the unintuitive odd one out for using the first letter of what it does. How are you meant to work that out?
-
Even better is
V
:Forcefully restores framebuffer console, except for ARM processors, where this key causes ETM buffer dump
Which is basically 'Do this thing, except on one processor arch, where it's do something totally different'
-
Actually, those keys are extremely nice when you get a really bad crash. I have a desktop that likes to freeze if I move the mouse (It's an old Pentium 4, I don't think it can handle the GUI), and that's let me reset the system semi-nicely even when everything else was borked (it was borked to the point that the numlock LED was unresponsive...)
It's good to keep disk corruption from happening - I think the only thing that makes them not work is a total kernel crash. Which.... if that happens you're screwed anyways.

That's as close as you can get to the Windows experience !

That's actually useful for certain kinds of debugging. You used to have to buy hardware to do it on a PC. (Or cheat, by IIRC shorting bus traces.)

What ever happened to Shift+Delete, Shift+Insert
I still do it that way a lot of the time, sadly.
-
How many Windows users know they work though? I'd been using Windows for over a decade before I found that out!

-
I still sometimes double-click the upper-left of a window to close it.
It still works.
Even in Chrome, which draws no widgets there. It's a magical invisible widget.
-
Order is wrong though... that could cause problems :)

I just tried it on my dhromebook and it moved my browser window to only cover the left half of my screen.

Restart Even If System Utterly Broken

Chrome intentionally doesn't allow those pages to be accessed through links.

Come on guys, this wasn't that funny...

I think the evidence kinda contradicts that?

I liked it and Necro'd the topic just to you
