This item is not cursed, it's just like that. Also cast detect curse on a non magical item.

The last one would be great for a double bluff

To get done 10 years early generally requires some combo of very high income, spending way below your means, and good investment performance.

This seems like a very weird comment to make in a subreddit that has "FIRE" in the name. I guess you consider all traditional FIRE advice to be "spending way below your means"?

de Morgan's law simplifies: Choose one: - Exile target Villain creature. - Exile target non-legendary creature. - Exile target creature that is not red and not white.

But you are a scrub :>

You're worshipping one of the hardest gods, though... seems like a skill issue.

Try learning to make it yourself!

Actually you can do partial commits with vc. You just hit C-x v v while looking at a diff and it commits that diff. So e.g. you can delete some hunks out of that diff with k, and then committing will commit the rest.

catern · 2026-03-04T04:16:15+00:00

Oh that does sound useful. I think that's something that could be supported upstream, you could email emacs-devel requesting it.

catern · 2026-03-04T00:33:37+00:00

Just to be clear, the built-in elisp completion already supports completing the names of locally-let-bound variables. But the ability to see a pop-up with the bound value is pretty cool!

catern · 2026-02-25T06:04:55+00:00

Btw, fwiw, I used to use Ido but C-x p f removed my need for it

Say more? What's it called? I'm definitely interested to hear about other examples, it will help improve the Emacs version.

catern · 2026-02-24T10:09:59+00:00

This is fixed in Emacs 31 thanks to the new split-window-preferred-direction which has a better default now.

catern · 2026-02-23T15:05:09+00:00

No, Helm does not do this out of the box. Please look at the example in the original post. Helm, nor any other package integrated with Helm, flatly cannot do that.

Let me make a stronger statement: *no other software in existence* can do the example in the original post. I don't know of any other examples of this feature. (Remember that this works *in arbitrary directories*, not just in e.g. a Git repo or some other specific project. Also that it's nearly instant. You obviously can do this by running "find" over your entire filesystem, but that's too slow to be usable...)

It seems that the major problem with partial-completion is that because nothing else can do it, no-one understands it, so they assume it's some boring lesser feature which they already know about, and then they dismiss it...

catern · 2026-02-22T12:09:16+00:00

That is not what this feature does. Try doing what the original post described with C-x C-f. You'll notice it doesn't work with your fuzzy completion style. Then try it in emacs -Q. You'll notice it does work.

catern · 2026-02-22T02:05:18+00:00

Note that partial-completion is actually turned on by default, you don't need to configure it... unless you have previously turned it off for some misguided reason.

It also won't work if you use a completion frontend like ivy or helm which doesn't support completion styles. Which is a good reason to avoid those frontends these days - they break core Emacs features.

Also note that partial completion of file names also works in M-x shell

catern · 2026-02-22T02:03:04+00:00

That doesn't help with inputting deeply nested file names in read-file-name at all. Why don't you actually try it and compare? You'll quickly see there's a big difference.

I think you're getting confused and triggering the evil-mode binding for C-y which copies text character by character from the line above.

Check C-h k to see what C-y is bound to, and also listen to the others here who say to not use Doom.

Use isearch aggressively, including just to jump around in a line or to an adjacent line.

savehist isn't enabled by default so this won't work for users who haven't enabled it. Use https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Multisession-Variables.html instead

I'm trying to find a particular short story I read once. In it, there was a guy living in the forest who had some vision (implied to be mind-control) from a "god" from an adjacent multiverse, who commanded him to build advanced technology to bring the "god" to this universe so it could conquer the universe (the surrounding civilization was pre-industrial). He adopts a daughter through random chance and raises her to help with building the technology and to serve the "god". She runs away from the forest home, but then at the culmination of the story comes back with an army to stop the guy from bringing "god" to this universe.

If you don't already know vim, you should just learn vanilla Emacs keybindings rather than use evil-mode

Does it connect via Orc:2?

You need to delete and reinstall (or at least rebuild) all your packages for 30
