AFAIK everything was dropped in the end, and people went back to using audacity

Yeah, who’d hate using a package manager that increasingly slows down your boot time with every package installed, or that uses a closed source store to provide you FOSS

Maybe there’s a reason canonical has to force it on their users

No, Debian doesn’t take your apt install ... command and install a snap behind your back…

I dislike that it takes way too long to boot

1. Use the Daemon, it starts a new client in a fraction of a second
2. Improve your config and it’ll start in under a second anyways

Emacs had some “premade IDE” project I recall that I tried and wasn’t that enthusiastic about.

Doom Emacs, spacemacs, etc.

And there are plenty of nvim “distros” like that (lazyvim for example).

They make getting started pretty easy. I’ve been using Doom for years and never bothered to make a full config of my own.

Is there a better way of starting the emacs daemon?

I just use the DE/WM autostart functionality

If you’re using your pinkie you’re doing it wrong…

AI is quite fit for the task of understanding

Sure, and parrots are amazing at spotting fallacies like cherry picking…

if there’s something that I can adopt as a default goto solution without having to worry about how each system is packaged/configured.

Go is probably your best bet. Simple to use, and you can compile it so it runs everywhere

10 years ago - python

Nowadays - go

I don’t know enough about Colombia to insult you properly.

Just remember that they fuck donkeys. I think that should be enough

Lucky guy, I ordered it to Germany and they wouldn’t let me use the non-eu warehouse (so they can get rid of their overpriced stock I’m guessing)

Stopwatch - can’t be minimised, can’t see the time while it’s open, restarts when you get a notification (the fixes have been sitting in the PRs for years)

Notifications - don’t get cleared when you clear them on the phone, clearing them on the watch doesn’t close the notifications screen, answering your phone through the watch doesn’t dismiss the call notification

Heart rate monitor - essentially useless since it can’t take periodic measurements, doesn’t work great unless you’re wearing the watch on the inside of your hand, but at least they’ve managed to finally read the sensor docs and program it correctly

Step syncing is a massive pain in the ass and often requires you to “manually” sync them by walking around while keeping both devices active

Battery barely lasts longer than a week even with infrequent wearing (and that’s a massive improvement over the previous 3-4 days max)

Lift to wake up usually acts more like shake to wake

The UI is pretty bad overall

There are like 2 half decent watch faces

Horrific weight distribution and the shitty strap make it feel 10x heavier. Like, my automatic is almost 2x its weight and I barely feel it, while this crap is constantly reminding me it’s there.

The CPP OS doesn’t let you chose what apps to activate nor does it have any way to load your code aside from compiling everything

Updates are only mostly headache free if you use specific PC software. Keyword is mostly, I’ve had some updates take a bunch of attempts to install.

That’s just from the top of my head

I call bs or it was before they started shipping from EU. You literally couldn’t order to Europe or EU countries from the other warehouse while they were stocking it.

It’s got a lot more issues than that. It’s utter trash unless you like want to practice CPP.

It’s complete crap, on the level of not being able to run the stopwatch in the background and having it restart if you get a notification.

Also, it’s 65EUR if you want to order it in Europe

Idk what’s up with your fingerprint rant, but the drivers for that have been out for years. Not official ofc, but it works better than in windows.

The issue is that it’s essentially useless because Linux has no support for any type of fingerprint reader, so you can maybe set up your DM to log you in.

Xkill doesn’t kill the process, it just stops showing it to you

Having everything in a single file is not really a problem.

Having extremely outdated info on topics like below is a major issue though.

One cannot have bookmarks, or refer to page numbers.

Huh?

Icy peepee

Or

I see peepeee

???

I mean, org-mode was invented because LaTeX is too hard

73 and 76, but I got them mixed up, ed is older.

That’s for original Emacs though, the gnu version came out in 85
