In my years of selfhosting personal stuff I never had a service “sunset“, never lost data, and never had significant downtime. In the external services I use, downtime of one service or other is to be expected at least a few times a year, a

I like having my email in Emacs, so i can reference it from org. I also like to write mails in Emacs. Triaging mails in notmuch-emacs is also quick and painless. Reading HTML mails, though — not so much.

What do you think FPS means in the context of a terminal text editor? The linked page is pretty clear in what the author means: “Cursor movement and edits render under 10ms”. So FPS = 1 / latency. The link I gave measures latency; <

The only benchmark I could find is https://pavelfatin.com/typing-with-pleasure/#editor-benchmar... , showing GVim to be quite a bit better than that. For terminal Vim, terminal latency dominates.

The destruction, death, and misery of the war in Ukraine will seem tiny and insignificant in comparison to a Russian civil war you seem to be asking for.

It was enforced for businesses. I don’t think it’s enforced for private users anywhere.

The specific building is the regional administration, and recruitment there was advertised in Ukrainian telegram channels. All that excuses nothing.

Vk is more of an amplifier than its own propaganda channel. (Like Facebook sometimes) There are also very different people on there. Banning shit like RT or other Russian state media makes more sense.

Latency and startup time are largest contributors to my feeling. I don’t have a measurement, and both are difficult to measure.

All amazing achievements, and I’m really happy for your productivity and freedom of self-expression. (I’m very comfortable where I am, thank you for your concern)

It's suboptimal, period. On any OS. Don't do that to yourself.

Still slower than xterm. And I have yet to see a feature I need that's not in (famously bloated) xterm, and which Alacritty or Kitty provide.

Nah, the names of Excel functions are nonsensical in any language, and you still need to know the English ones.

Though I do have to admit that I do not know what, e.g., ASCII code 8 would mean in a filename. Or 27. I’d very much prefer using symbols I understand. Filenames with terminal control escape sequences are lots of fun. Limiting possibilities

My criterion is that paths should not be painful to type, parse, or copy-paste. So no keyboard layout switching, and escaping should not be necessary. Lower-case Latin letters, digits, periods, and dashes (of the unique variety that's

Those people do not use filesystems. Also, my native language does not use the Latin alphabet. Attempts by American companies to be more inclusive and internationalized are often misguided. MS is especially nasty with its translated formula

Case-insensitive ASCII filenames are best filenames. Also, please, no whitespace in filenames. Allowing linebreaks is just insane.

Self-hosting is slightly better as you are not creating a honeypot. But it’s not inherently more secure against client-side attacks (browser extensions, mobile apps), and adds its own attack vectors (put a contaminated version on DockerHub)

Love how the poster is named carltheperson, and half the post is about how to trick redditors into thinking you’re a person. Time to “unbundle” the “hello, fellow humans” meme.
