Doesn't look like its on GitHub or MELPA:

My opinion still stands.

Use multi-vterm: https://github.com/suonlight/multi-vterm

Anything else is a waste of time since vterm is the only decent terminal for Emacs.

Question Regarding Default 'Read' Click For WD RED 14 TB Drives (alien.top)
 

Hey there,

I bought two WD RED 14 TB drives (7200 RPM) recently for mass storage, and added all of my data to both of them which are now synced via 'rsync'.

My issue is this:

- Every 5 secs, I can hear like a 'data read' type noise --> Not necessarily as bad as a hard drive failure click, but something noticeable. Its kind of slight loud, and hard to ignore. It doesn't sound awful, but I can't like 'not hear it' which is getting annoying.

I notice them in tandem since they are the same drive aka as soon as 5 secs go by --> one makes the read noise, and the other makes a read noise shortly there after.

I am using Linux so I observed this issue on the same machine via Ubuntu Server, and Linux Mint.

​

Anyone else notice this? Is this normal? Asking since I can probably just zero out the drives and return them, but would need to know if I can maybe force it to do this kind of idle read every few minutes or something.

​

Figured I would ask you guys, thanks.

Why the journey of learning Emacs and Elisp in 2023 is so hard ? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Learn enough to figure out how to use "Use Package" and figure out what packages you like, and what you truly hate about Emacs so you can customize the fuck out of it and BTFO the shitty defaults.

Store your config in GitHub and use GNU Stow to deploy it on each of your machines.

Past that, the only truly fucking "hard" thing is LSP for Emacs for use within modern web dev settings.

The minute that someone makes a config that is as easy as an IDE for React and Typescript projects, then I am convinced Emacs is easy to use so I will agree with your frustration that it is pretty crazy that it has not kept up with other IDEs in this respect.

Otherwise, it's pretty good for Org mode and terminal. That is about all I use my actual old config for.

Spacemacs has gotten me closer to what I want though, but I just wish it was 100x easier with zero effort to get shit working like an IDE.

Maybe Doom is better though. Haven't touched that in ages either.
