Vim, or neovim if you want to put some leg work in for vi with modern features.

It's a beautiful bird until the horny little pricks find your chimney's metal flashing at 5:00!

Once I lost my wallet. Another time my partner had her card skimmed. In both cases the charges were less than $13 000, but both times the process was pretty quick and painless. "Do you solemnly swear this wasn't you? Yes. Okay, please cut up your card; we've reversed the charges and sent you a new one."

Give the article a read. Your answer is right at the top.

ToonStruck, remastered, or the shelved sequel ressurected. I'd like Burst to (exist again and) handle the development because they did a fantastic job the first time around!

Strangely topical for me. I wasted yesterday telling myself I was smart enough to make SwayWM on Wayland work well with my 1070. Should have trusted the warnings in the documentation; hubris cost me a weekend day!

I noticed I was blocked today when connecting via the same VPN I've used for years, including back when I was a user. That's fuck up enough for me.

If you don't mind me polling your opinion: do you recommend Graphene for someone previously used to Cyanogen / Lineage? I recently upgraded to a Pixel 8 from quite an old handset and I'm not particularly fond of the stock ROM. Much has changed since the last time I had to think about this stuff! I primarily care about privacy, and use my cell for little more than phone calls, messaging, and its camera.

I was with you up until the climate controls.

Any control you can find in a 1997 Hyundai Accent should be physical.

Anything else can be hidden behind a touchscreen because I'm not going to use it while driving anyway.

My big request would be to drop the USB cable. I don't know why I need to connect both USB and Bluetooth. I'd love to just leave my cell in my bag where it belongs instead of advertising yet another reason why someone should smash my windows in!

I have a surprising number of games which I play with BGM at 1%. That is nuts! Why should any game be designed roughly 100x too loud!?

If memory serves, Age of Empires 3 DE is this way last I tried to play and chat on Discord. Earth Defence Force 4, and all of the new Counter Strikes are similar. It's a war on eardrums!
