Like it cannot print invisible characters.

I was looking at an option to display invisible characters in Kate like last week. So it got better, I guess.

haha!

Sometimes I feel like my side of the holy war isn't engaging in completely good faith.

I might switch sides to emacs if my fingers were long enough to reach the key combinations.

Maybe I'll go try it, anyway!

...

What was the command to exit vi, again...?

But but but...vimtutor is right there on startup - so it's an easily obtained diploma...

I'll see myself out.

kate is fantastic, all around.

Ctrl+Alt+V makes the key bindings tolerable. (Vi mode)

Yes. Lack of :r! is what keeps me from using most editors that aren't vim.

There's so many things I don't remember well enough to type accurately from memory, but I know the command to fetch quickly.

It's so much worse than that. We use the pleasant answer predictor to predict what function calls and arguments passed to those functions might be the most pleasing.

It can provide all of the capabilities of piping curl into sudo with none of the warm fuzzy feeling of knowing I've turned over control of my computer's fate to a stranger on the Internet.

Instead, I've turned my computer's fate over to a statistical approximation of the slurry from mixing together the outputs of every stranger from the Internet.

Exactly. And they need to make back the biggest up-front loss in the history of investment, and probably - even adjusted for inflation - in the history of currency.

And all that on a product that people don't want.

Let's not give the idiots more ideas. haha.

Yes. And perhaps, given time, accessing the wrong version of certain sensitive historic events could even be tracked that way.

Ale and Tale Tavern is great co-op fun, and terribly cozy. It's primarily fantasy themed overcooked, but with much chiller vibes.

There's optional adventurer stuff, but it is pretty light, there's good accessibility settings, and the adventuring can be delayed until stronger gear is available or done cooperatively, making it much easier.

Over time, you can upgrade your gear and decorate the tavern.

If anything, the game's flaw is just that it's relatively short, for an economy simulation game.

(6 to 8 hours with my group unlocked everything. We played past the end for maybe another two hours just for the chill vibes.)

Strictly speaking, we only have to govern the billionaires if we don't just eat them...so it's kind of a run-off between how easy to govern they decide to be, and how they taste...

(This is solely meant to humorous, officer, your honor.)
