Show HN: VimSweeper – Minesweeper with Vim Motions

Posted by theanti9 on Saturday July 06, 2024 @03:05AM
from the show-hn dept.

https://theanti9.itch.io/vimsweeper

This was a quick weekend project to make a basic minesweeper that I can play with vim motions, mostly because I like minesweeper to keep my hands busy, but playing with a mouse or trackpad makes my wrists hurt pretty quickly. Thought some others here might enjoy as well :)Written in C with Raylib, for anyone curious.

Re:Scientists of Chinese descent leaving the US at an accelerating pace on Saturday August 05, 2023 @10:47PM (#37018494)
As the US citizen partner to an immigrant who now has their green card from our marriage, it was anything but simple. It is definitely the simplest way, by far, but it is not simple. It was very eye opening to me to see the journey from the inside.
Re:Twitter is being evicted from its Boulder office over unpaid rent on Wednesday June 14, 2023 @03:39PM (#36331424)
For me this was the final nail in the coffin for the "Elon's just playing 4D chess we don't understand" argument and really just shows that he's a dude that thinks he can do whatever he wants with no consequences, because so far there haven't really been any.

If there were a logic to it, I'd guess that it's more important he make the interest payments on the billions of dollars in loans he took out for the purchase than it is to not get sued for non-payment of a lease.

> "Elon doesn't pay rent"

Among the many absolutely bonkers things in there, Elon appears to believe he just doesn't need to pay for things.

Re:Imgur Updates TOS, Banning NSFW Content on Thursday April 20, 2023 @12:03AM (#35636244)
FWIW, Reddit's new limits are about 3rd party use of their data/APIs. As a regular user, it doesn't really change anything (unless you consume Reddit NSFW content exclusively through a 3rd party app, I guess), so a pretty different case than Imgur's change here, which fundamentally shifts their user-base.
Re:Tell HN: Salary data is for sale on Friday January 07, 2022 @12:59AM (#29835534)
This happened to me as well. bunch of random @yahoo addresses (I don't have one of those) and rando phone numbers, none of which were mine. Welp.... who knows wtf they have in there then, I guess.
Re:Ask HN: How did you deal with depression? on Tuesday July 21, 2015 @07:50PM (#9926750)
Having spent a long time on medication for depression in the past, I can verify this. There's a lot you can do to help yourself before trying medication. Exercise and learning to manage your emotions are a great place to start and can help a lot more than most people think. It definitely has a time and place, but the side effects can be a lot more drastic (and sometimes detrimental) than a lot of people expect.

I think the overall design does looks great; very polished and well done. Although I will admit, the background is a tad retina burning at night on a bright screen (at least for me).
