When I log into my Foonix system with my 110 baud teletype, both vi and Emacs are just too damn slow. They print useless messages like, C-h for help'' and "foo" File is read only''. So I use the editor that doesn't waste my VALUABLE time.

Ed, man!

!man ed 

ED(1) UNIX Programmer's Manual ED(1) 

NAME
  ed - text editor 

SYNOPSIS
  ed [ - ] [ -x ] [ name ] 

DESCRIPTION 
  Ed is the standard text editor.

Computer Scientists love ed, not just because it comes first alphabetically, but because it's the standard. Everyone else loves ed because it's ED!

"Ed is the standard text editor."

And ed doesn't waste space on my Timex Sinclair. Just look:

- -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 24 Oct 29 1929 /bin/ed 
- -rwxr-xr-t 4 root 1310720 Jan 1 1970 /usr/ucb/vi 
- -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 5.89824e37 Oct 22 1990 /usr/bin/emacs

Of course, on the system I administrate, vi is symlinked to ed. Emacs has been replaced by a shell script which 1) Generates a syslog message at level LOG_EMERG; 2) reduces the user's disk quota by 100K; and 3) RUNS ED!!!!!!

"Ed is the standard text editor."

Let's look at a typical novice's session with the mighty ed:

golem> ed 

? 
help 
? 
? 
? 
quit 
? 
exit 
? 
bye 
? 
hello? 
? 
eat flaming death 
? 
^C 
? 
^C 
? 
^D 
?

Note the consistent user interface and error reportage. Ed is generous enough to flag errors, yet prudent enough not to overwhelm the novice with verbosity.

"Ed is the standard text editor."

Ed, the greatest WYGIWYG editor of all.

ED IS THE TRUE PATH TO NIRVANA! ED HAS BEEN THE CHOICE OF EDUCATED AND IGNORANT ALIKE FOR CENTURIES! ED WILL NOT CORRUPT YOUR PRECIOUS BODILY FLUIDS!! ED IS THE STANDARD TEXT EDITOR! ED MAKES THE SUN SHINE AND THE BIRDS SING AND THE GRASS GREEN!!

When I use an editor, I don't want eight extra KILOBYTES of worthless help screens and cursor positioning code! I just want an EDitor!! Not a "viitor". Not a "emacsitor". Those aren't even WORDS!!!! ED! ED! ED IS THE STANDARD!!!

When IBM, in its ever-present omnipotence, needed to base their "edlin" on a UNIX standard, did they mimic vi? No. Emacs? Surely you jest. They chose the most karmic editor of all. The standard.

Ed is for those who can remember what they are working on. If you are an idiot, you should use Emacs. If you are an Emacs, you should not be vi. If you use ED, you are on THE PATH TO REDEMPTION. THE SO-CALLED "VISUAL" EDITORS HAVE BEEN PLACED HERE BY ED TO TEMPT THE FAITHLESS. DO NOT GIVE IN!!! THE MIGHTY ED HAS SPOKEN!!!

i don't understand it either

maybe i'd understand it if i was born before 1993 (the year this joke was send to the gnu mailing list)

quantenzitrone ,

Ahh, the joke is that there is an event in Germany called "fisch sucht fahrrad" (short FSF) which is a big gathering of singles to find potential partners. A bit like Tinder, but before online dating was invented.

A gathering of FSF (free software foundation) People also consists of mostly single men.

i'm 22 so i wouldn't call myself a kid, but it depends on the point of view I guess

Looking for some Android apps

Having used iOS my entire life, the switch to GrapheneOS will be a big change. I have learned over the past year about Android, GrapheneOS, and apps to use. I managed to find most of the apps I was looking for, but there are some I struggled with. I had trouble finding privacy respecting, open source apps for the following...

quantenzitrone ,

IDE and Terminal

Neovim is an program that runs in a terminal. You can use it to edit text files and through plugins it can become a fully fledged IDE. The site you linked actually tells you to install Neovim as a package in Termux.

To be clear: Neovim is not a Terminal Emulator. It is not even an Android App. It runs on Android in Termux (and probably other apps), but not on its own.

Termux is afaik the best Terminal Emulator for Android, it includes a package manager with a lot of Linux CLI utilities (like Neovim) available.

For Java there is an apparently fully Fledged IDE available in F-Droid.
For Python I'd suggest installing python in Termux and developing and running python scripts from there.

Torrent

I use Torrent Client. It works, but it hasn't been updated in 2 years and I don't know how secure it is. I mostly Torrent on my Linux Desktop PC.

E-Book Reader

I use KOReader which is more optimized for E-Readers, but it has a very clean UI and works great for me. It is also actively developed.

quantenzitrone ,

Signal is currently the best middleground between security, simplicity and widespread adoption.

nix-inst 🤯

quantenzitrone ,

i install quite a lot of stuff through nix profile

once i decide that i use it often enough and i get around to do it, i eventually move them to my config

quantenzitrone ,

cannot kindle bonfire: no humanity

quantenzitrone ,

i enjoy playing dark souls on nixos

does that make double masochist?

quantenzitrone ,

put it in a git repo

quantenzitrone , 
while true; do
  ydotool mousemove -x 100 -y 100
  ydotool mousemove -x -100 -y -100
  sleep 5m
done
quantenzitrone ,

since gender is not binary, trans is not a binary operation

so double trans [ interpreted as trans²: x ↦ trans(trans(x)) ] is not necessarily the identity funcion [ id: x↦x ]

quantenzitrone ,

/sexual

quantenzitrone ,

fish shell is also a huge help for that
tab autosuggestions also have short explainations

quantenzitrone ,

im guessing all of them are hollywood

quantenzitrone ,

tbh the linux updates don't look terribly delicious either

quantenzitrone ,

Yes.

I'm mostly finished ricing, everything works, but every now and then i find something I want to improve or try out.

Well there are still some things I want to implement, like adding smart window transparency to swayfx, but that is kind of a mammoth task, while I can't even get it to compile properly..,
