Ha! Old school. It's boring now that we're all pals.
- unixhero 3y agoEverybody uses Vscode, even Carmack. That war is over.
- mftb 3y agoThat's the spirit! (but I can't help it if you've mistaken a cleverly disguised web browser for a text editor.)

- the_third_wave 3y agoEverybody who takes climate change and environmental protection seriously uses vi or - if they have to - emacs. Every time a VScode session is started the average global temperature goes up by %NaN degrees. Every time a new version is launched the smoldering heaps of electronic waste on faraway beaches rise by a few metres. People die, people are suffering. Whole ecosystems are collapsing and you're using VScode...

- ColonelPhantom 3y agoThere's an old UNIX hacker trope of Vim vs Emacs "editor wars", where Vim users complain about RSImacs and Emacs users complain about Vimscript. It's a meme that goes very deep (Church of Emacs anyone?), and I'm sure that the Vim bindings for Emacs being called "evil-mode" was done at least partially on purpose. In Spacemacs, the setup option for which keybindings you want even makes it sound like you're choosing a side in a video game: - Among the stars aboard the Evil flagship (vim) - On the planet Emacs in the Holy control tower (emacs)
