Karl Voit :emacs: :orgmode:<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@chesheer" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@chesheer</a> IMO people have lost the ability to discuss topics in a non-personal fashion. Factual level vs. personal level.Nowadays, the tendency that any discussion results in personal insults is very high.Besides: since <a href="https://graz.social/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> is able to do everything(!) that <a href="https://graz.social/tags/vim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#vim</a> does (except vimscript) but vim can only do vim-stuff but only a tiny fraction of the stuff that's built-in or optional within Emacs, this is actually settled once and for all. 😈 <a href="https://graz.social/tags/editorwars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#editorwars</a>

chesheerI think, one of the lost arts of The Olden Webs is the art of a good rant. It was an important tool for any decent Web Crusader fighting the Holy War of Whatever. Modern rants are either too whiny or not a rants at all ("It's ok if you like <x>..." — what the hell, show me your war face! Bullshit, I'm not scared). In the olden days people were not only convinced they are right, they had enough humour and style in them to show their rightness with splendour. Nowadays it's like reading Cicero's orations. It doesn't matter which side you're on, you read them as a piece of art. So I found a beautiful example of such rant "vi vs. Emacs" from the Year of Our Lord 1996! Just look at these amazing quotes: "Emacs is for people who desperately want to get drunk, but feel guilty doing so without a reason." "But vi is on everything and emacs isn't so it's obvious the best Unix editor to learn, besides, what difference does it make that you can't tell what mode you're in if you happen to answer the phone in the middle of an edit and it doesn't really matter that typing your name can cause you to program a complete web server if you happen to be in command mode, so vi is obviously really cool". <a href="http://www.rru.com/~meo/rants/emacs.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">http://www.rru.com/~meo/rants/emacs.html</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/vi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#vi</a>

DebacleI like to use <a href="https://framapiaf.org/tags/run0" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#run0</a> instead of <a href="https://framapiaf.org/tags/sudo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sudo</a>, but encounter problems, when having more than one user in the sudo group:1. Minor, but annoying: On the shell, I always must choose which identity should be used. Can't it just assume the current login?2. Opening a file in <a href="https://framapiaf.org/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> with the run0 <a href="https://framapiaf.org/tags/TRAMP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TRAMP</a> method hangs. Probably identity selection does not work in Emacs? Again, it would be cool, if it just took my current uid as default.Any idea how to fix that?

Chris is.Is there any intersection between <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#emacs</a> and <a href="https://devenv.sh/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://devenv.sh/</a> users in my graph on here, or in the graph of anyone who is reached by a boost? I'd like to know if anybody out there has a sense of if the two play nice together in terms of LSP support?

Jack BatySaying, "I've decided to use Emacs for my all my notes." doesn't really narrow my options all that much, since <a href="https://social.lol/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> is a self-contained infinity of choices all by itself. 😵‍💫

Christian Tietze<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> friends on the web, the month of July is almost over. So many cool submissions to the blog carnivals in the past two months!There's not a topic or host lined up for August, yet.We all need you, yes you, to host an upcoming carnival on your blog 💪 <a href="https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Carnival" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Carnival</a>Everyone can be a host. If you blog, you know how to do this :)And editing the wiki doesn't require a user account.Put yourself into the list of hosts, and/or the table for upcoming months, to show you care 🫶

screwlispHaving now more seriously read the all-but-one orgmode writing carnival articles so far (link in article), I think the distinction between <a href="https://gamerplus.org/tags/emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#emacs</a> and its orgmode mode is worth a better examination by the emacs community at large.I'm surprised by this homogeneity.I would at least like to hear what else is possible for writing in emacs without using orgmode.(my article presented eev in kitten markdown, but not everyone likes my writing ;p)Four days left, <a href="https://gamerplus.org/tags/writers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writers</a>!<a href="https://masto.gregnewman.io/@greg" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@greg</a>
