Okay, was wondering about that. Still, it's a neutron friggin star. A star, made out of neutrons. Colliding with another. Galaxies away. And we got it right. D

Okay, was wondering about that. Still, it's a neutron friggin star. A star, made out of neutrons. Colliding with another. Galaxies away. And we got it right. Down to very small details. The more I think about it, the more my mind is blown. Physics: what happens when neutron stars collide? vs CS: how do I exit vim? :)

How do you really?

  Ctrl-Z, kill -9 %

    That's literally what I do -- it feels safer.

  Reboot. The emacs solution seems to be they haven't figured out how to exit so they just stay there.

    Sometimes people even write a systemd unit for it. Feature, not a bug, etc.

    Yes, but it doesn't matter because emacs can do anything worth doing.

      Emacs is a great OS, but a lousy editor. ;-)

Galaxies away, and the size of Manhattan at best. When neutron stars collide black holes are usually formed.
