Pretty sure most of you already know this but for those who don’t: you have two clipboards in Linux. One is the traditional clipboard where you copy with control c and paste with control v. The other one is when you highlight text and use the mouse middle click to paste text.

    This has been a thing for like ever. Throws me off a lot in Windows when I just want a temporary clipboard to search something and nothing comes up.

    I think PowerShell abides by it, but that’s it.
