You used the wrong icon. It should be emacs
Yeah, emacs makes way more sense for this one
The only thing emacs is missing is a text editor
That actually made me laugh out loud. Well done
oh man. all the old jokes are new again. shit, am i basically a dad now?
Vi vs EMACS jokes are well within grandpa territory now. Sorry.
Next thing you know people aren’t going to know that EMACS stands for Eight Megabytes And Constantly Swapping. Or why that’s funny.
Today I learned
I saw that reply and figured I’d just let the whippersnappers enjoy themselves 😅
it’s a healthy sign of a community when dad jokes enter the cultural milieu as something that’s passed from generation to generation. we inherited these jokes, handed them down, and someday they’ll be handed down again
Grandpa, will you tell me the story about the black and orange computer screens please?
Well, seeing as I’m more than a decade younger than emacs… I guess so?
The only thing emacs is missing is a text editor
How dare you. I’m sending the church of emacs after your ass.
Free software song starts playing
Surely someone has used the built-in Lisp interpreter to emulate a feature exact
nano
.That’s why evil-mode exists
yea, emacs even has a doctor
Why do you say that?
M-x doctor
In emacs, ESC then x then type doctor, I remember this from 30 years ago
Is it because you say “I remember this from 30 years ago” that emacs has a doctor?
C-x M-c M-butterfly
And the only thing preventing us mortals from having such power is the lack of a
butterfly
key on our keyboards
How the fuck did you beat me to it and get so many up votes so fast
I don’t even agree with the meme and I hate this comment.
I am a firm believer of (neo)vim being the pinnacle of editing. My workdays start with vim and end with vim. But vim is not the everything app, which the e in emacs probably stands for.
HOWEVER, there are vim plugins for almost everything, which is pretty cool. This point goes to you, emacs rivals. Let’s keep it between us and not the vs code or IDE weirdos
Is it possible to downvote a comment twice?
Upvote it first.
Genius!
Neovim*
nvim
Only acceptable in eVil form
Doom Emacs for those who have truly ascended.
It should be Neovim and Lua. Nobody should be subjected to the curse and torment of writing Elisp.
You surely mean Emacs, no?
He tried to, but couldn’t enter edit mode to type it out
EMACS CURED MY AUTISM!
in only + / - bilions of years!
For those who haven’t seen this amazing interview:
what sort of honoric is et al, does it make you plural?
In case you’re not being sarcastic, et al is a shortening that means “among others” - usually authors of academic papers are clubbed together like this. In this context it is more like, “among other educational qualifications”
While that does make sense, I think I’ll stick to thinking they’re plural.
no no McS. et al., PhD is mf actual family name. Trying a bit too hard to get a great academic career.

Is this navigation?
VI-Maps
I know it’s a classic but confused how I’m supposed to use Vim to send an email
Already got my Vim, any tips?
open it, use it. keep using it because you can’t close it
Shit, I’ve been scrubbing the bathroom for 10hours, can’t close Vim

It’s standard for a reason.
You know what else is standard?
strcmp
in C with user input.If you know you know.
But I don’t need an editor, do you see an editor somewhere in the infographics? Thought so.
One night there was a storm, and Master Wq’s house collapsed. The next morning he began to build it again using his old tools. His novice came to help him, and they built for a while and were making good progress. As they worked, the novice began to tell Master Wq of his latest accomplishments.
“Master, I have developed a wonderful Vim script to give all sorts of useful information about a document. It counts the words, the sentences, the paragraphs, and even tells you what kind of document it is using the syntax highlighting rules. I use it in my pipelines all the time. It is a thing of beauty, and I am very proud. Truly, Vim is the greatest tool!”
Master Wq did not reply. Thinking he had unwittingly angered his master, the novice fell silent and continued his work.
The novice finished aligning two beams and had positioned a nail ready for beating into the wood, but found the hammer was out of reach.
“Would you pass me the hammer, master?”
Master Wq handed the novice a saw.
At once, the novice was enlightened.
and finally you replace vim with nano
Cast out the unbeliever! Drive them from our light! Let them not pass amongst the true believers lest they lead others astray!
I-i-it’s surely okay, as they must have meant neovim, r-r-right?!?!?!?!
Grrrr. Neovim? I question your devotion to the cause of righteousness. Think well upon your choices lest you too be cast out from the light of the glory of the almighty vim!
You misspelled Emacs
Why Chatgpt and not Gemini? Also why no vpn? You could have put VPN by Google
I’m more of an Ajax guy.
Honestly it’s kinda true except for Photos and Maps. Everything that is not fundamentally visual by nature can pretty efficiently be done with Vim. It truly excels at manipulating and navigating through text.
I’m not shure whether vim is not capable of handling photos — I never tried this plugin: https://github.com/ashisha/image.vim
Edit: it’s 10 years old and uses python2 and PIL, so it needs a bit dusting off, but with a bit of caring love, it should be able to run again.
Changed my life!!!
also replaced android with minimal Linux running with Busybox + Vim /jI have a question: I sadly still use my Gmail for many ‘official’ purposes and anything I need to pay to (I promise I will delete my Amazon account within the next year or so… especislly since those fuckers dont even let you archive or delete your own purchase history!), but I will need some access to my Gmail account. Anyway I can do this without giving Google everything?
