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!


<span style="color:#323232;">!man ed 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">ED(1) UNIX Programmer's Manual ED(1) 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">NAME
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  ed - text editor 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">SYNOPSIS
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  ed [ - ] [ -x ] [ name ] 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">DESCRIPTION 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  Ed is the standard text editor. 
</span>

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:


<span style="color:#323232;">- -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 24 Oct 29 1929 /bin/ed 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">- -rwxr-xr-t 4 root 1310720 Jan 1 1970 /usr/ucb/vi 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">- -rwxr-xr-x 1 root 5.89824e37 Oct 22 1990 /usr/bin/emacs 
</span>

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 Emacs has been replaced by a shell script which 1) Generates a syslog message at level LOG_EMERG; 2) reduces the user’s disk quota by 100K; and 3) RUNS ED!!!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:


<span style="color:#323232;">golem> ed 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">help 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">quit 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">exit 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">bye 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">hello? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">eat flaming death 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">^C 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">^C 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">^D 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">? 
</span>

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.

quantenzitrone ,

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

quantenzitrone ,

since yaml is just a superset of json, you can easily avoid all problems like this

yaml is like a less strict json for me

quantenzitrone ,

They eat, shit and fall asleep

what?

oh there is a comma there

quantenzitrone ,

honestly i have no problem if zuck eats shit

quantenzitrone ,

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 ,

can you share your conky config?

Help me choose a distro/stay on NixOS

Disclaimer: I know there’s a lot of questions and posts like this but generally they’re aimed at noobs. I consider myself an intermediate user, and I know generally distros don’t matter much and you can have anything another distro has on any distro but I’m looking for something a little “specific” that better suits...

quantenzitrone ,

its probably easier to debug the issues you currently have, than dealing with the suckness of imparative package management

quantenzitrone ,

i enjoy playing dark souls on nixos

does that make double masochist?

quantenzitrone ,

put it in a git repo

quantenzitrone , 

<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">while </span><span style="color:#323232;">true</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">; do
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  ydotool mousemove -x 100 -y 100
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  ydotool mousemove -x -100 -y -100
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  sleep 5m
</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">done
</span>
quantenzitrone ,

everything beyond motherfuckingwebsite.com is worse imo

quantenzitrone ,

idk about op, but if i asked about a good linux tablet, i would mean the hardware not the software

for me a good linux tablet means i can take my favorite linux distro, install it without big hassle and have a good performing computer with all components working afterwards

while good performing can be interpretable

quantenzitrone ,

if the hardware is not working with the linux kernel, its bad hardware

gnome not opening the keyboard when i focus an input, has nothing to do with the hardware

quantenzitrone ,

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

quantenzitrone ,

nix like in nixos?

three solutions:

  • enable flatpak and install it from there
  • package it
  • ask me to package it
quantenzitrone ,

Who are the 4 at the bottom?

Processor Designers, Processor Manufacturers, Assembly Programmers?

quantenzitrone ,

im guessing all of them are hollywood

quantenzitrone ,

Nixpkgs is actually one of the most up to date software repositories. (~90% according to repology)

You may be using a release channel which will only be updated for important security updates.

quantenzitrone ,

hey, i have one of those skullcandy headphones

quantenzitrone ,

yeah the sound quality is not so great

quantenzitrone ,

i sometimes do that so i can inspect the error messages on a cleared terminal

quantenzitrone ,

But the french won’t invade the Kommentarsektion…

I finally nuked windows

I have been daily driving a dual booted laptop for the past two years. After a year of distro hopping I settled with fedora + kde and never looked back. I really liked the auto nvidia driver config and it made everything so pleasant to work. Since the last 8 or 9 months I decided to do gaming using bottles and proton ge. I...

quantenzitrone ,

nice

i remember nuking my windows dual boot about 2 years ago

pretty similar story: i discovered almost all my games work with wine, so i didn’t use windows for a few month. eventually i didn’t see any point in keeping it around.

quantenzitrone ,

where nushell, xonsh, rush, yash, dash, powershell, oil, elvish?

the dot at the end of your link breaks it

It’s not really about the genotype. Every context that uses sex to divide people into groups has its own definition of sex. Sometimes with a spectrum sometimes not.

Example car crash testing: When testing safety features of cars, you’re not gonna care about whether the person has a vagina or not, but features like height, neck strength and other stuff will matter.
Since women are on average smaller and less muscular than men, small people with weak necks will be categorized as female. Tall people with strong necks will be categorized as male.

Example Condoms:
Two categories: has penis (male, can use) and has no penis (not male, cannot use [for inteded purpose]). So if you are XY genotype, but without a penis (idk cut off?), you’re not a male in that context.

As you see both examples correlate with the gonosomes, but are not defined by it.

quantenzitrone ,

did you fully read my comment?

sex depends on context

quantenzitrone ,

yes, because most of german history is nazi history and nazis are brown

(at least back then, now german nazis are blue)

quantenzitrone ,

what is “Jastorf the Mark”?

quantenzitrone ,

the proprietary drivers work pretty great on X11 for me

quantenzitrone ,

not as bad as ur mom, lmao gottem

quantenzitrone ,

ur mum

quantenzitrone ,

/bin/bash won’t work on every system for example NixOS some other systems may have bash in /usr/bin or elsewhere

quantenzitrone ,

Binaries are not in /usr/bin or /bin except for /bin/sh and /usr/bin/env. Programs should not assume fixed paths for binaries and instead look for them in $PATH.

This means they are in arrays that satisfy the heap condition, resulting in efficiently traversable and sortable tree structures.

quantenzitrone ,

i hate this meme template

quantenzitrone ,

changing the value of a second is not really feasible nowadays, so instead i would propose to just remove minutes and hours, and use seconds, hectoseconds and kiloseconds

simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilosecond

quantenzitrone ,

im only lurking without an account from time to time

quantenzitrone ,

all the mad car lovers in the comments lmao

you could install your favorite distro with all your customizations and needed programs on a flash drive and use that as a rescue system
