One of my favorite #emacs/tramp things is that in find-file I can say: /ssh:some-server.com|docker:some-container:/conf/some-conf.yaml to view/edit a file inside a docker container on a remote host and that, after opening said file, M-x shell gives me a shell inside said container and dired is available as well to browse directory structures.

#emacs #tidbit I believe most emacs users know that c-y inserts the string in the operating system's clipboard into the current buffer (leaving the cursor at the end of the string), but I wonder how many know that c-u c-y does the same but leaves the cursor at the beginning of the string?

I think it's unfair to compare vi(m) and emacs, they're not built for the same purposes. #emacs is a full productivity suite with addons and parts for every imaginable thing in the universe. it's the CLI version of an 'everything app', it'll just as happily help you with spreadsheets or email or your calendar or align the planets in whatever specific configuration as part of your dark voodoo magic incantation workflows or whatever. and #vim and #nano are also not the same, for the same reasons

Catching up on #emacs stuff and decided to move away from modus themes and aporetic font. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and choice I appreciate that some people can separate art from artist but I can't in this case. The close knit nature of open source makes this hit differently for me Going back to #solarized and Terminus font. Old stables from my Arch days. What's not to love about someone teaching DND to girls?

Hello world! I'm thinking of trying a new OS. At the moment I'm on #opensuse because it's European (and it was also my first Linux distro back in 2002). However I'd like to move to something with a stronger stance against llm slop. My computing needs are modest: a web browser like #librewolf, #emacs and #lilypond cover it pretty much. Fortunately I have a wlan USB thing with open source drivers, so I have high hopes it will work.
