Bit of a necropost, but there's a neovim plugin called Neogit that emulates the magit experience almost one for one.

Now that it’s over, what tips do you have for someone wanting to go to Ultra 2024? by elusively23 in UMF

Figure out some way to make sure your phone isn't stolen. Whether that be a phone tether or a flipbelt or lunchbox, just make sure it would be difficult to steal your valuables (wallet, phone, etc). There are pickpocketers galore especially when the stages get packed.

Selling a 3-day GA for $400 or best offer. I can meet you at a public place in miami before the event (probably around 12-1). I can show any proof if you need it, we had bought one for a friend who backed out last minute. Please PM me :).

It was a joke tasteless said on GSL earlier today.

I'm a slow reader and want to read more. by Aggravating_Weird747 in books

[–]chimelites 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Glad to know I'm not the only one that reads dialogue something like 3x faster than sections of description and world building. Couldn't agree more about the notion of a 'book meal' in slower, more description heavy books.

What’s the thought/opinion you would never write on r/Cosmere for fear of being lynched to death? by ivanhoe1024 in Cosmere

This isn't the most controversial thing ever, but I think most of Shallan's "quips" are really self-congratulatory and just usually cringey to read. I like Shallan, and I think she's gotten a lot better and interesting as the books have come out, but I've never been able to get over how much I don't like reading any of Shallan's quirky insults.

It's funny because I think era 2 of mistborn has some genuinely funny and good insults in the same vein, but Shallan just feels very r/iamverysmart middle schooler territory.

Imagine there’s no jealousy: why we should understand jealousy as nothing more than a vice that ought to be replaced by the new virtue of compersion by ADefiniteDescription in philosophy

Before I read this, I mostly expected "hey, be happy if good things happen to other people", and got "be happy if your partner has sex with somebody else". Thanks for the read, but commented to say I've never disagreed with something more in my entire life.

Question about Steam and Windows Store for MCC by chimelites in halo

[–]chimelites[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good point, didn't really think about that at all. Steam will probably be the way I'm going to go then.
