Vim has a rough learning curve, where you have to learn a lot of keyboard mappings to even use it. This works out because I use Vim many hours per day every day, so the initial investment makes sense.
But for other random apps, the same philosophy don't work out. I use a PDF viewer which I use twice a week. I zoom once a week. I rotate once ever two months. Investing time in learning obscure mappings never pays off. Give a little toolbar with basic actions. In the style of Windows 95 apps.

Trump says Jeffrey Epstein 'stole' Virginia Giuffre from him when she worked at Mar-a-Lago spa
President Donald Trump said that convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein “stole” Virginia Giuffre from his Mar-a-Lago club, a stunning admission that could increase scrutiny of his relationship with the late financier — even as his administration seek…Minyvonne Burke (NBC News)
Virginia Giuffre had said she had a summer job as a towel attendant at Mar a Lago. It was there this Ghislaine Maxwell approached her. Ghislaine brought up the the massage training book Virginia was reading, and asked if she was willing to come to Jeffrey's home to give one.
Trump lied in 2019, saying he kicked Jeffrey out of Mar-a-Lago for making a pass at a member's daughter.
I believe Virginia Giuffre - RIP.

If we are at languages. I've heard a story from a person studying in - then - Leningrad (now: St. Petersburg), that toilets in non-posh restaurants are marked as м - мужчина (man) and ж - женщина (woman). But in post restaurant are marked as м - мадамы (madams) and ж - жентльмены (gentlemen).
Now I wonder if the person telling me that was pulling my leg, or the spelling has changed since this time. As the current spelling is джентльмены.
@oldladyplays Yeah. I know the rules 😁

Tried a new coffee shop. Was good all around but not like exciting. Then someone was a dick to one of the cashiers and the way the place handled it has made me a fan.

Awesome scene. As someone else said, I'd live it if the tattoo guy wasn't the owner, just standing up for them.
Reminds me of a scene from the Jack Reacher books. It was in the Tom Cruise film, but it was better in the book. Bunch of 'Bros' picking on a girl and he defends her. There's 5 of them, one of him and he puts them all in hospital. 🤣
Wow. So much wow on this. It's rare enough that managers stick up for their employees, but for the owner to willingly say don't come back and tell your friends is just... amazing... I guess standards still exist out there somewhere after all.
One thing none of the businesses without standards don't seem to realize is when they allow such people to create a hostile environment, that too can cost them customers. They're so afraid of losing a few short term sales they forget that long term exists too. It sounds like maybe the owner gets this though...
