First of all, read your history and news. You don't have to go far, just go back a few years when the Chinese government were blocking the App Store. This isn't a law, this is literally just some arbitrary decision passed down in

No. Flycheck is the 7th most downloaded emacs package and the 3rd most popular package that's not a library. It's directly behind helm and magit. You can't just replace something like this with a thin stroke. The only reason

I don't know how you can jump from stating an observation to conclude how I feel about it. I'm merely stating a natural course of human affairs. To answer your question, I'm not happy to see any violence, but as someone who h
