Is that a combo you often hit on accident? Ctrl+Shift+C seems way too specific for that ...

Neat feature, though. Nice to see that they still do features that aren't about AI.

If you're interacting with a command line terminal frequently then yes, since Ctrl+Shift+C is the shortcut for copy in most terminal emulators as Ctrl+C is used for terminating the current running command.

Ah. Fair, I guess I forgot about it because I didn't make that mistake in a while.

Sometimes by accident, but mostly because out of habit, since you usually use Ctrl+Shift+C for copying things off terminal. Annoying part is it automatically opens up element selector, and I wonder for half a second why nothing got copied, and why the click didn't work.

Same. And I don't know a shortcut to close it D:

Why are there 2 shortcuts for the inspector? I prefer F12

WIPocket@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 176d

F12 just opens the developer tools as a whole, but there are also shortcuts to jump right to specific tabs (like the console or debugger, not just the inspector).

Please enlighten me

I think this meme is to do with newly introduced about:keyboard in Firefox that allows you to edit default keyboard shortcuts. Ctrl+Shift+C is a common shortcut that ends up unnecessarily launching DOM inspector.

Does this mean I can finally remap key combos for system shit in Firefox? Ctrl-J no longer opens downloads on my Linux box, which is fucking stupid

I tried to and it didn't work.

I have it on the default and use it all the time, but it stopped working, now I'm looking into how to fix it..

Do your terminals not have settings for intelligently handling ctrl+c? I’m happy for anyone who has this problem and can now solve it, but it’s surprising how many people want to make everything else adapt to the terminal rather than just make the terminal adapt to the modern desktop (ctrl+c is copy if anything is selected).
