I always wonder how people in ordinary settings open their phones on magnetar brightness. Like, do you just not have optic nerves anymore?
Always nice to have a meme affirm that you’re not the only one out there.
Exactly. Using my computer late at night always feels like I’ve starred at the sun lol.
Do y’all not at least have a night now setting? I have one that some the screen and makes everything a slightly warmer color.
Any time I see people at night with the brightness on 100%, I think, “I’m sure they also sit on thumbtacks and lick sand paper.”
Just use Notepad++
I think you misunderstand, the meme is pointing out that I was, at the time, using notepad fullscreen as a light source so I could see what I was doing while writing stuff down on paper at my desk. I think you’ll agree that notepad is a slightly better light source than NPP
Genuinely, how do you guys still exist?
Obviously just my opinion, but a modern editor like VS code does everything better and if you want to go the other way vim does everything and more. I just don’t see why someone chooses notepad++ any time after about 2010
Notepad++ has a certain classic “Back when Windows was cool” appeal.
VSCode is cumbersome with a photoshop-like startup and a welcome screen and project manager and blah blah blah for just wanting to see “What’s in this file real quick…”
I used to like Atom while that was still a thing.
Now for taking notes or editing simple files, it’s always Kate. Follows my dark theme too! :D
it’s dark mode in windows 11 and even has tabs + proper search… like most linux alternatives
