Either that or Void

Guix (pronounced “geeks”) is like Nix (declarative, functional, atomic) but more Emacs (niche, lispy, Free)

Windows is known to break dual-boots

They won’t package Hyprland and some niche browsers. Not a big deal since you can easily get build templates from the community, but a gripe for some.

Yes! I built my own variant using their tool (removing the weird italic l etc). I love it.

Radiolab made an episode about this in 2018: https://radiolab.org/podcast/gonads-xy

Manjaro breaks all the time…

Or just use an editor built on this concept, like Helix.

Edit: Okay. I got downvoted and I see why. Let me rephrase:

If you are interested in this editing mode, you should check out editors that are built around this concept, like Helix (and certain vim/neovim configs/plugins). Having native integration makes it insanely powerful (and you don’t have to get Emacs pinky from all the modifier presses).

Nix with Lix

Generating quick programs like “a python script that calculates the mean value of two hex colours, outputting the result as a HTML file displaying the resulting three-color gradient”? Yeah, AI is decent at stupid simple tasks like that, and it’s much faster than me writing the script or calculating the values myself. I tend to generate things like these when I’m working on something else, don’t want to spend time on things outside the project I’m working on, and can’t find a website that does the thing I want.

Touching my actual code? Hell no.

Been thinking about that game I started building a while back. Got some new ideas. Might pick it up again soon. It’s been so long though that I have to read all my notes and figure out what I was doing before I can do anything new. Dreading that part.

Yes. I have used Inkscape for OP’s use case (floor planning, rearranging furniture, measuring) and it worked great. IIRC I plopped a PDF floorplan in and scaled it to 1px = 1 cm then added layers. Super simple.

Might as well do alias nvim=vim while you’re at it

Another reason to use Emacs: woman pages

Surely spreading the word would increase total donations?

Not OP, but pure donations lack the “spread the word” aspect of wearing an advert on a shirt.

Refurbished Thinkpad. The answer is always refurbished Thinkpad.

It’s the other way around … yellow is choleric and black is melancholic

What? C++ is definitely black bile and Cobol is definetly yellow bile.
