@aldroid now that I'm getting old, I have to hold down Ctrl+P all the time

@aldroid just don’t press alt-b, as that summons wasps

maxthyme, 7 months ago

@aldroid How many times did you press it, because I just saw a HUGE swarm buzz past, took like ten minutes for the whole cloud.

@aldroid

They're in the B-trees of the filesystem where you can't see them, directly, but they can make letters thicker and darker when you control them.

Of course, if you're on a Mac, you don't ctrl-B, you COMMAND-B.

@aldroid Well, Ctrl+C didn't work too well for King Canute, did it? ;)

@aldroid Bold move though.

@aldroid I found ctrl-t to be way safer and easier.

gsuberland, 7 months ago

@aldroid it only lets you control one bee at a time. to control a different bee, press Ctrl-Alt-B.

@gsuberland @aldroid
And you have to specify what you want them to do. For example, if you want to move them a bit, press Ctrl+Shift+B

@aldroid I am just grateful I can still ctrl-p

@aldroid this is a bold plan

@aldroid AltGr+B for angry bees.

@aldroid Moses had better luck with ctrl C

carturo222, 7 months ago

@aldroid You need to be bolder.

@aldroid trick: add COMMAND

marcello3d, 7 months ago

@aldroid maybe you need cmd-b

patrickhadfield, 7 months ago

@aldroid you've got to be bold!

@aldroid Oh, tmux is interpreting it as a modifier prefix. You have to press it twice to send it to the program running in the current window.

@aldroid
ooh, I think there is quite a misunderstanding going on here. the letter b in combination with ctrl key on the keyboard is only controlling digital function for programms inside of the computer. like making a font bold in Word. it has no influence on objects in the real world outside of the computer. a smart funny thought, though!

@luftlesen nice try, bees!
