I'd observe that there are professional gamblers, and there are amateur gamblers. If you know what you're doing, know how to spec a problem space, and can manage the tool competently enough to churn out good results, then everythi

It's annoying that they class themselves as "Involuntary" Celibates, because as far as I can tell the "in" part of "Involuntary" is doing a lot of heavy lifting. Volcels is way more accurate.

I do (also sometimes) use Emacs on Windows, but I must admit I have little experience of the issues surrounding Japanese textual input (I've not checked but I would have automaticaly assumed "there's an Emacs mode for that&qu

Pretty much yes. Emacs is basically a Lisp execution environment with a customisable text-editor included.

by rasur 7mo ago
With respect, you should learn Lisp - it will allow you to turn Emacs into whatever you want. In my opinion just keeping the Emacs keybindings but dropping all the other advantages of Emacs is missing the point entirely, and using Electron

I've got to admit to being somewhat disappointed that the "wolf" in question wasn't the character from the film 'Pulp Fiction', because - at least in my mind - it's an apt example for Rand's original

I've not had time to explore fully, but I just cracked open emacs on this windwoes machine, and tried it, and it auto-added a comma to the beginning of a nested #+BEGIN_SRC...

I'm not a Linux noob, but I do have better things to do than admin/fix in the evenings too.

right - same here WRT windows partition. Not always using Live, but it gets used when it's necessary. I'm slightly disappointed that they haven't done the decent thing and released a Linux version, but .. ah well, what can ya

Thanks! I wasn't aware of the JUCE newer version issue.. I'll have to (sometime) dig into that a bit deeper. Me I don't mind the idea of the smaller-scale alternatives, but having to occasionally work withothers that aren&#x2

I have been 'enjoying' this with Debian on a PC with a 1080Ti nvidia card, which is no longer supported by the nvidia v590 + drivers. I've had to pin to v580, but the whole "oops, I updated, rebooted and 'look ma, n

Yeah, these days the Scarletts are fine (as is the aging Firewire connected Edirol FA-101 I've got attached). Non-DAW things such as Supercollider work fine, but I focus less on that sort of environment (which isn't a dis - SC is

Gaming is all well and good, but I'd be interested to hear of experiences with moving and using Audio apps (Ableton Live, Cubase and other Steinberg apps, plus many VSTs) from Windows to Linux. I see Wine, YABridge and LinVST mentioned

Emacs user here, and the whole "electric-mode" stuff (for matching parens or other balanced pairs of things) I find really quite useful. And closing a pair is usually something like shift+enter, which is quite simple (but also - a

During Covid, my son (who is deaf and attends a deaf school) has issued masks with transparent windows at the front, especially for assisting with lip-reading for deaf users. This is in Switzerland though - I don't know if this innovat

Being late to the party is the story of my life, but fwiw, I was aware that FORTH was used a lot in this kind of use-case ;)

They could adopt the Swiss Direct-Democracy model. But, they wouldn't.

I also live in Switzerland, and it is perfectly possible to survive 48 hours or so here without needing one, unless of course every single transaction you engage in requires 2FA, which.. here, you generally do not. I mean, I feel for the gu

ok, let me clarify my comment.. storage should occur once the fuel has been reprocessed and re-used enough times to have been exhausted, and then stored. The "use once and store" attitude that results in needing safe places for hi

One should not store the nuclear waste, one should reprocess it. If one looks at France, for example, one can see that they have been doing this quite successfully for 30+ years. It's not a know-how problem, it's a political probl
