Yes but the parent has addressed this and you're just talking past them like they didn't comment. If the maintainers don't want it to happen then they need to come to an agreement that it won't happen. If they do want it

I mean, you pretty much answered your own question with "blow" which doesn't indicate it being a worthwhile purchase. The people I know who have done well in business don't have extremely fancy houses anyway. They vacati

Here too, in NZ, after his salute was the first time I've heard him mentioned in the non technical circle I'm part of. Although it's a group that wouldn't even think about a Tesla. Not because they're anti EV or any

I think the main difference is the pain to people. We had alternatives to CFCs pretty much ready to go, it wasn't a major economic cost. You could still get hairspray after. Businesses could not run subtle campaigns about the issue bec

Nothing wrong with the dollar, things are cheap, food is cheap, even after the last couple of years inflation. What's broken is housing. People in the 90s had fewer toys but much more affordable housing.

This is true now I come to compare them. The font rendering in ghostty is crisper. I don't really care about the resize issue, but I could see it. Kitty has always felt super light to me compared to Mac alternatives.

I know that kitty has a one line install and has done for ages, and the defaults are fine? One thing I really liked about the default config was that it lists every option with an explanation.

I'm a little puzzled why Ghostty is so suddenly popular. I've tried it, it's OK but it's not as good as kitty, and it's implementing the protocols that kitty invented to make the terminal experience better. Kitty is

Why do we have to change your mind? What's special about you? Hydrogen is a pita for infrastructure and car manufacturers have talked about it far longer than the modern EV period yet it still hasn't gone anywhere. It would need a

I don't know, it seems like a pretty good way to price things. Yes, you have to consider if you want to pay for each user you give access to. But the point is usually that giving someone access is the value of the product to you. Plus,
