you’re right

This has gotta be the best explanation of Emacs’ appeal I’ve seen yet, out of many.

Have u considered writing them?

Anyway, ULauncher looks very good to me as a Raycast alternative.

I’ve done lots of searching and Reddit comments about what makes Emacs so appealing. I think Emacs users like the specific ecosystem and things it offers and they put in the work to tailor it for them. Consistently is one thing I hear. Tell me ur thoughts.

I don’t find anything appealing about it over Neovim + TUIs and keyboard navigation in GUI apps, including hints: https://github.com/AlfredoSequeida/hints.

I crossposted the post btw.

For instance, I can’t download completely youtube pages with videos using wget, but can with pywb (though pywb has issues with sites like reddit).

Not that I would necessarily use it for youtube pages, but that’s an example of a complex page with lots of AJAX.

Doesn’t work well for more complex sites.

Yeah I used a color picker to compare the 2 background colors, both with p3 color enabled btw (also tested that on both windows with macOS Safari’s color picker, which detects p3 colors)

except one time when I knocked a cup of water into one in 2005.

This but repeatedly for some people. I only drink from my metal bottles, and turn away from my computer. Admittedly I could be more careful by moving away from the computer but now its been years since it happened.

Here’s the page shown in the image: https://typeof.net/Iosevka/customizer.

The visual editor generates a toml file below that you copy into a plan file. You clone the Iosevka repo, place the plan file there, and compile it. Full instructions are here: https://github.com/be5invis/Iosevka/blob/main/doc/custom-build.md. It takes 30-40 mins to compile Iosevka TTFs on my M1 Pro MBP though.

DId u read the post? I’m on a MBP so I would dual boot to macOS (it’s not possible to run windows on it rn without a VM).

That hasn’t really happened with macs even up to several years old with those parts irreplaceable, by the time that would happen the device should be replaced.

Yes replaceable parts would be better but the ones on Macs do in fact last a very long time.

I looked at that but it doesn’t feel as nice as Asahi Linux - since it’s not constrained to a VM and brightness and text look better.

Unfortunately it doesn’t work on ARM devices right now.

Kovid GOATal

GrapheneOS is not your typical android image … and that’s why its great!

All of them are pushing generative AI that many users don’t want and you have to manually opt out on Windows and Mac.

“I can’t delete bloatware” - all 3 of them

No I don’t want tiling, I want windows that can overlap, I just want to control them with hotkeys.

Id say about 90% of folks that push for this dont understand how our immigration/asylum system works other 10% would be hateful racist.

It feels like the percentages are the other way around.
