TUIs would be great if they didn't have to render all text the same size, for me that's the main win with GUIs, you have total freedom with what you can do with your pixels. I would definitely be pro minimalist unicode-character-

I agree 100%. Pictures or any sort of visual representation of any kind would only diminish the quality of the whole experience. The fact is, if you're smart enough you can just eyeball raw css and just see it if you close your eyes. O

I always had the feeling that Zellij is there for people who want to use tmux but don't want to take the 2 minutes it takes to learn the 3-4 basic key combinations you need to make it useful...

I respect your beliefs. I once tried to stick to Green’s Literal Translation but it got dry fast. I actually enjoyed reading the preface and made me appreciate the work Jay Green Sr put in.

Same, not a believer, I appreciate KJV for its artistic value and it being referenced in so much literature and cinema.

As an engineer I've found most managers that i ever worked with to be perfectly fine people and their role was justified and I was happy that their job was not my job. By most I mean maybe 75%

I’ve used the London underground. I wouldn’t let my kids go on it alone. I welcome this tbh. I don’t see what else they’re supposed to do other than have permanent guards on every wagon and every corner 24/7

i never managed to pay attention fully to an audio book. i always have to go back 30 seconds every now and then cause i lose the plot. i am the same with books. i never read it linearly. i jump back a lot and reread a page or two. and jumpi
