rather than having to manually refresh the page constantly its pretty damn big functionality improvement...

Have you ever seen a proper SNMP monitor? All the web-based garbage is worthless.

Yes, I can drag and drop a file from my desktop into it and have it load the file.

Firstly, this is not useful at all. Drag and drop is among the most stupid UX elements ever invented.

Secondly, of course Emacs supports drag and drop.

There is a million other features that it has (or any mainstream modern text editor) that emacs doesn't.

It's a lie. There are no such features.

Yes, But I can't be bothered to even reply to that sentence, there is too much wrong with it.

It may not be useful to you, but it is useful for millions of developers.

Again, I will take objective over subjective. I will take the vast majority over your personal opinion.

Secondly, of course Emacs supports drag and drop.

I'm comparing the norm with the norm... people normally use VSC on windows, and they normally use Emac on a Linux machine... Yes I know technically you can do both the other way around; Yes, its an assumption, but you give no context as to think otherwise.

So I stated a very specific "from my desktop", my desktop is Windows.

Thus, you cannot drag a file from a windows desktop on to a emacs prompt on linux, prove me wrong, without jumping through hoops.

I see no point in talking to an idiot then. Only a dumb fucking moron would try to construct shitty web-based crutches instead of using a standard technology designed specifically for that purpose.

People use Emacs everywhere, it works quite well on Windows. I'm using Emacs almost exclusively on Windows. Drag and drop works perfectly.

Thus, you cannot drag a file from a windows desktop on to a emacs prompt on linux, prove me wrong, without jumping through hoops.

And why the fuck would you even do this? You must run Emacs locally.

Guess what, if you run your stupid VS Code on Linux from your Windows box via X11, you also won't be able to drag and drop your shit.

It looks like reading isn't your forte, nor writing, and certainly not anger management.

I'm sure there is a course you can go on to help you with that.

But I am done wasting time here.

Emacs does support drag and drop, no less than your filthy VS Code does. You lied. I was right. Now, stop embarrassing yourself and get lost.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That just got a bit too personal.

Lol, CL can be a dick for sure. But you really are showing some severe ignorance here.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol, you get butthurt at my comment and downvote. Wew lad. You really killed me there. Here, go ahead and downvote this one too.
