emacs is for trannies and chuds

Only the clinicaly insane would consider these options
| Not true, when I started using vim I noticed women in black trench coats following me around, after I became proficient with it they broke into my house, replaced all my clothes with girl clothes and injected me with estradiol and filed the paperwork to change my name to Alice
| the alice from every single programming lecture:
| I like emacs more than vim, but god do i wish i just learned vim instead.
| Who the fuck is Alice?
| Go ask Bob, maybe she’ll know
And if you do chasing rabbits…
| the editor wars continue unabated
| Nobody cares actually, vscode won and it is not even close
| vscode is for non-binaries which is a bit ironic i must say
| What about jetbrains
| ed is the standard text editor
Which I'm guessing means that the most standard (average) people use it. So I guess cishets use ed
| Real cis het patriots use word
| Emacs is the Hegelian editor: Every other editor is either influenced by or a rejection of it.
| Emacs is probably more powerful than vim, especially for developers, but I'm just an admin and rarely touch program code.
I honestly don't care what editors people prefer, as long they produce standard-compatible format, which text usually is.
The only thing which really sucks is working with a conceptually broken OS like Windows, with its inconsistent and weird default preferences regarding encoding, permissions, paths and environment variables.

the last time i used windows it swapped until almost the entire storage was full, thrashed an external hard drive and constantly started a print spooler only to have it crash minutes later. you also can't get it to do much serious computing without prior unixification
>inconsistent and weird default preferences
sounds like cissoids to me
| >>1107965
i have never seen a windows install behave like that except when clueless people messed up their own systems. like you.
| >>1107981
then you've clearly never done any serious work on it. the installs at my work need to be redone all the time
| >>1108029
i was system administrator for 5 years lol. a plain install will never behave the way you claim it does unless YOU fucked something up
| a*
| >>1108080
As a former administrator you should now that there is no "plain install". There are different versions of Windows, with different defaults. Also even it has improved the basic hardware support of windows still sucks. The builtin drivers are rudimentary, incomplete and buggy while finding the "right" third party drivers is a time consuming shit-party.
| >>1108080
And as a former administrator you should now, that usually in a administered organizational environment windows installations are customized according to the organizations standards through several sysprepping/imaging tools. Updates easily (and regulary) break things, since they are not well documented. Handling multiple Windows Installations is a Nightmare to any competent sysadmin, compared to any *n*x systems.
| And then there still is the stability/ressource wasting issue. There is a good reason no one has windows on mobile or embedded devices, but *n*x instead.
Not long ago I had to configure a "lightweight" Win11 for embedded systems (because of stupid MS-Office dependency), where this "lightweight" turned out to be a straight up lie.
| Everyone who works with multiple VMs knows how much resources Windows does waste for nothing compared to 1000 times more efficient *n*x systems.
| >>1108084
lol I'm not reading all that just because you won't admit that YOU fucked up your windows installations
| >>1108101
Don't worry. She never addressed the swap issue or the autostarting print spooler or how she broke her external hdd in any of those posts. She's the kind of person who starts spamming unrelated misdirections whenever she can't back up her (obvious fraudulent) arguments when proven wrong.
She's the same whineface that spams and attacks any issue that isn't related to her own personal struggles as a trans person btw. A completely selfish and dishonest person.
| >>1108123
>projection
i haven't posted in this thread since >108029. i'm also never going to further "address" these issues, because all of them turned up 8 years ago after i upgraded from win7 to win10. windows being a massive liability for any IT department should be common knowledge though:
| >>1108124
- when my mother starts complaining about her phone being slow and full, i know where to clear logs and such, but there's no "cleanup" that can save an aging windows install
- when linux/bsd has dodgy drivers, they're likely out of tree and those i've seen all had to do with hardware detection and power management; on windows faulty drivers are known to degrade the entire system and returning it to a working state often requires a clean install
| >>1108125
- finally windows software updates are their own class of frequent, system-breaking bugs; i'm sure there is no need to elaborate further on this
| >>1108123 for what it's worth I'm the Anon you usually accuse of that not her
It's amusing watching you chase ghosts though :3
| Conclusion:
It is almost irrelevant what text editor you choose, as long you can handle it. Plaintext is thankfully a nearly standard-compatible format, that can only be broken by whacky OS defaults (no UTF-8 encoding, MSDOS line break behaviour) and annoying non-text/proprietary file formats, e.g. as storing configs in a binary database like the infamous windows registry, or handling hardware resources as os-specific objects in worst case with proprietary implementation (windos).
| conclusion:
windows is like trannies
| >>1108213
There is no relation between those things. Neither causal nor correlative and finally not at all.
| I guess we all like trannies
| I use Emacs on Windows, what does that make me?
