Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    EMACS makes all coding suck
    VIM is marvelous

    That joke has aged like milk

    Vim is the new "I use Arch btw"

    [–] [email protected] 15 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    NEW?

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    I guess? Because I'm new to Linux

    I can bet the Emacs/Vim war has been raging for longer than you have been alive.

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    Well, it was either that or "I've been using Unix for so long that my first text editor was ed".

    Emacs is older than ed

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    Didn't ed released in 69 and Emacs is in 85?

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

    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

    You could argue that maybe Helix is.
