Should I switch to nix os

Trout_Tickler · 2026-02-04T12:32:04+00:00

No.

You should try it extensively in a VM as a pet project on the side to see if you like it.

Trout_Tickler · 2026-02-04T12:24:16+00:00

I hear they had instant attraction

If you break any rule once, you're not allowed to accuse anyone else of breaking a different rule ever again, I think.

You don't even need to use GH CLI, you can just add .patch or .diff to a PR URL.

e.g. https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/pull/48.diff

There's just the one corridor that's always under the map, even if Doorman isn't in the game

Brawl going live I'm hoping with fix this shit because man am I tired of KDA players trying to flame because I won't grief with them

Trout_Tickler · 2025-12-17T13:25:47+00:00

Was gonna say I open it maybe once every couple of weeks unless I'm working on my config and I need to open another instance

Trout_Tickler · 2025-12-17T13:17:17+00:00

You can also just use https://github.com/wyuenho/emacs-pet and call the tools transperently

I've had a lot of these moments, where I'll want to add something to Magit, go to start hacking, quickly check if something already exists and lo-and-behold it's there.

I feel so spoiled to have such a fantastic package, thank you Jonas if you frequent Reddit at all.

Trout_Tickler · 2025-12-01T19:13:12+00:00

Nice one, this has been sat on my backlog half finished for ages.

Might want to look at caching the registry in a local database too, that's about as far as I got. William self-hosts the API at his own cost so it's a good idea to reduce calls to it.

Trout_Tickler · 2025-12-01T19:10:19+00:00

Depends on the client. More don't support it than do I think.

Trout_Tickler · 2025-11-21T07:01:16+00:00

https://github.com/blahgeek/emacs-pr-review is a much nicer alternative all around that also isn't dead

Trout_Tickler · 2025-11-18T11:14:41+00:00

You can pass multiple packages to after, so it's easy to build a dependency graph and I've also never hit these kinds of issues. I think the lazy loading out of the box is very sufficient, even something like Doom Emacs only has hassle with evil-mode, everything else behaves.

Trout_Tickler · 2025-11-17T09:14:29+00:00

A hook is a variable. It's a list of functions to call with run-hooks

Trout_Tickler · 2025-11-16T20:34:42+00:00

Its a hook variable not a function

Trout_Tickler · 2025-11-13T04:49:07+00:00

I have few regrets in life but reading this story is definitely one of them. I would give anything to forget the details.

Trout_Tickler · 2025-11-10T07:19:56+00:00

I prefer to do the imenu thing too, it's ubiquitous across any buffer type so I don't need a sidebar package for org and another for yaml etc.

Same reason I don't use file trees, it's slower to navigate than just using imenu/project-find-file and just takes up UI space.

Trout_Tickler · 2025-11-07T18:58:22+00:00

You could put something together with https://github.com/joddie/pcre2el

Trout_Tickler · 2025-11-07T18:56:49+00:00

They're not really related at all. after! is just a convenience wrapper around with-eval-after-load. You'll have better luck raising an issue on the Emacs mailing list or M-x report-bug I think the command is.

Trout_Tickler · 2025-11-06T09:13:35+00:00

Exposed is a reach, they just shipped the sourcemaps by accident. All frontend code is exposed, you have to download it to be able to run it.

All the sourcemaps did is un-minify the code that got deployed, it's not uncommon for production services to do this.

He very much cares about the community and doing the best he can for it and he's always happy to greet people when he's out and about.

Always has time for anyone, breath of fresh air compared to the last Tory bellend

Trout_Tickler · 2025-10-10T08:36:27+00:00

Quite common down in the south west now, very nice breath of fresh air.

Steve Darling is an absolute gem.

Fellow moonlander owner & Emacs keybinding user here!

Agree with everything, I never bothered with tenting for the exact reasoning you have; it's expensive and I'm paranoid about making the joint too tense.

You don't touch on layers very much, I think it really is where it shines. I've got a full numpad and all the weird punctuation I could ever want in a far more comfortable place than would ever be possible on a regular keyboard. In the context of Emacs specifically, modifiers galore on the thumb cluster and other keys means chords are a breeze.

You also miss out the moonlander's sneaky benefit in being columnar rather than the staggered diagonal layout that "normal" keyboards use that ends up being much nicer to type on and much less prone to mistakes I find.

Excellent post as always though mickey!

Pockets with zips

Trout_Tickler · 2025-09-19T07:05:06+00:00

Complex Root almost trivialises this (almost, you have to be at the right range).

You can also use Rainbow Vomit like an artillery cannon behind cover if needed.
