  • been giving it a whirl for a few weeks now and greatly enjoying it. one or two minor snags I still need to solve (such as back-kill-word not working in search, just haven't looked into it yet) but otherwise fairly pleased

    and I no longer have to see the stupid iterm2 update nag every damn day

    config.keys and hot reload are nice

  • as a youth I'd acquired this at some point and I recall some fondness about some of the things, largely in the novelty sense (in that they worked "with" the desktop, had the "boss key", etc) - and I suspect that in turn was largely because it was my first run-in with all of those things

    later on (skipping ahead, like, ~22y or something), the more I learned about the guy, the harder I never wanted to be in a room as him

    may he rest in ever-refreshed piss
