Stating a sad truth.

MicroEmacs
In testing, to settle a bet by a rabid cult-of-vi peer, I opened a given set of files in each editor, each a day apart because I couldn’t be arsed to clear caches. This guy, otherwise a prince, was railing about emacs, but otherwise suffered days of waiting.
10/10 the memory usage by his precious vi was same-or-more than emacs.
There’s so many shared libs pulled in by the shell that all the fuddy doomsaying about bloat is now just noise.
I avoid vi because even in 1992 it was crusty and wrong-headed. 30 years on the hard-headed cult and the app haven’t changed.
I don’t see how microEmacs can improve on what we have by default, and I worry that the more niche the product is the harder it will be to find answers online. But I’m willing to be swayed if anyone can pitch its virtues.

yum history undo last
There’s a colossal amount of work that goes into making that command usable and reliable, and I’m glad to say the yum-adjacent distros are still putting in the effort. That may change, but so far it’s been there to save my bacon when I need it.

… And yet, we isolate the president from the country as if the country did.
That’s. The. Point.
Ever? That’s a lot.
That’s a terrible sword to live by. How do you expect to get blood, then? If you’re unconscious you can’t take it by force.
ZFS. It’s come so far, and it has so far to go. but it’s a good concept for sure.
Canada loves Eastern European fascists.
Okay, show me the receipts.
My favourite truck is the green one.
Staten Island is full thanks.
Hey. Some of it is either very vocal upper Texans and/or comically racist pre-Cajuns. It’s not all fire-based home-reno experts.
I saw this meme during trump1. It was funny.

I love how adding violence will help with your safety. You could be the first case ever.
