That's why you can use vim in emacs. Since I've been using spacemacs, I don't miss vim anymore. Use the best editor together with the best operating system!

This is what I don't get. Would you carry a briefcase over the border filled with confidential documents, photos, love letters, and a porno magazine? Would you think that customs has no right to open it and ask you for the combination

I'm sorry but Uber has broken the law in how many different cities, and you have the gall to call Uber "ethical"? Um, no. Uber is not ethical. Uber willfully breaks laws they don't like when they think they can get away
