How do you spell ed with five letters? smh

[-] Sorse@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 1 month ago

How do you spell Writing out bytes on a hard drive platter by carefully using a needle and a magnet with five letters? smh my head*

They could possibly mean neovim. They appear to have spelled it wrong, though.

[-] neidu2@feddit.nl 21 points 1 month ago

vim was a mistake. Go back to vi.
...but modernizing it is still a good idea, so I present to you: neovi

(No, I'm not serious)

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 5 points 1 month ago

nvi is a thing

does not fit though

luckily we vim fanatics do not have to worry, through the power of wordle solver, we can use exits instead lol

  1. Better than vim

I’m done here, this crossword is bullshit

[-] hollyberries@programming.dev 23 points 1 month ago

The answer has got to be helix ;)

[-] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

We’re not friends anymore.

[-] CheesyFox@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 month ago

no, it should be kakoune :P

[-] hinterlufer@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago
[-] happy_saw@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

I don't think about neovim being separate to vim, sorry.

[-] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I’ll allow it.

[-] ichthys@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I was expecting a 'better than emacs' clue to go along with this one.

[-] hallettj@leminal.space 3 points 1 month ago

It seems like only one side of the ancient rivalry is represented in the comments here. No worries, I'm right there with you.

[-] lemmyng@lemmy.ca 32 points 1 month ago

I think there's a mistake, I can't fit "neovim" into 8 across.

[-] waigl@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

And "nothing" does not fit, either.

[-] PixelAlchemist@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

You need a spell checker friend.

[-] Bolt@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

Pretty confident in my solve. The only ones I didn't get myself were 20-down, 29-down (obvious in retrospect), and 21-across (inferred the word, but didn't know the tool).

[-] iz_ok@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

I don't think your spoiler tag worked.

[-] Tartas1995@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 month ago

Voyager Displays it correctly.

[-] dysprosium@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago

Boost For Lemmy is not rendering spoiler tag

[-] JustARegularNerd@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Rendered for me fine on Jerboa

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 3 points 1 month ago

Are you using Sync? It never got the memo that Lemmy spoiler tags don't work the same way as Reddit ones and famously displays them improperly

You can imagine my face reading the response of 15 lol I thought it was going to be a specific program hahaha I had a lot of fun with it and there were just a few I missed so I would love to see more like these in the future :)

[-] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

I wonder if anyone ever made a crossword that also works as a QR code

[-] nossaquesapao 12 points 1 month ago

Today I learned that gnome has a crossword maker. Now I need to play with it too!

[-] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

So... Anybody smarter than me know that 24 across is. I thought something like showering/bathing because supposedly people don't like to shower/cleanup as cons but neither seem to fit. Then I thought friends but that doesn't make sense either. So I got nothing.

Edit: Remove the ING from showering and it fits. Gotta check the connected ones to see if it works, though, assuming I get those right.

Edit Edit: I absolutely hate the "Best WM (Wayland) one because that is too subjective to be able to be answered correctly, if you ask me.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I get G _ N _ _ R there.

I'm not 100% confident about the G but the other two I'm positive of. It's not SHOWER but I have no idea what it is

[-] cetvrti_magi@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Best WM (Wayland) shoud be Hyprland, it's exact length and fits with 18 and 32.

[-] DmMacniel@feddit.org 5 points 1 month ago

why are there so many List Files... ? Also 31 doesn't fit.

All those Distro Questions (29, 18, 27) are missing 2 spaces (OS is part of their name)

[-] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.autism.place 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

19 down - WinNT

Proof

LOL

[-] dysprosium@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago
[-] RacoonVegetable@reddthat.com 4 points 1 month ago

Neither Vanilla OS nor Silverblue fit

I got all of them but three.

I had to google to figure out

nuclei and eagle mode existed

I still cannot figure out 24 across.

[-] drew_belloc@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

I have no idea what 9 and 24 are, and at this point i don't know if i care anymore

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago

I don't know 24, but 9 is:

solution to 9 downscripting

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Someone else said it. I never would've gotten this myself but now that I see it it makes sense.

24 across isGENDER

[-] drew_belloc@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

Thank you i knew it was something of that nature

Nice. I solved 22 (with 2 of them being unsure), there's 12 I don't know. I can only assume the multiple listings of 'List files in current directory' is a deliberate joke because you use it so much, but somehow it doesn't feel right.

You should find a website to share it where people can play it interactively! I'm sure such websites are out there, it's too obvious.
