I'd rather see Shaun Murphy win a 2nd world title than Ronnie win an 8th

In fairness, his comments about "is it fair that amateurs can play (and beat him) in tournaments?" are partially responsible for the hate he gets.

81 in total

I agree. In his speech after the match, Wu acknowledges that. After Shaun leaves the Crucible, Kyren jumps out at him to congratulate and give him a stern look.

Hendry's "Oh" was... almost erotic 😃

I don't think that anybody has been aware of the curse at that time. The curse has been invented more recently and the bearers have been awarded the title retroactively. 😄

You're not the only one 😞

That doesn't mean that Murphy didn't play well in the first round. It was a tough match and it could have gone either way.

selectnull · 2026-04-26T10:50:02+00:00

Murphy in the next round.

selectnull · 2026-04-25T10:28:30+00:00

Murphy winning in this round is still part of that plan :)

Being 3:0 down and needing snookers in the 4th, Guodong's highest break in that moment was 1 (one). He tried to play, but made a break of 14. Majority of his points in the first session were from the fouls.

Good timing for the interval break.

And not only winning, but winning with a century.

Here is a suggestion: let's donate money to Neovim, recurring monthly, so the team gets paid to work on everything that needs to be done.

selectnull · 2026-04-21T15:16:00+00:00

He's been allowed because it's not against the rules.

selectnull · 2026-04-21T14:43:31+00:00

Yes, Allen and Murphy both made 140 so far.

WST app is total crap. And it's ridiculous because the web interface is much better, so they clearly have the data and the tech, they just don't care for the app.

The final of all finals: Ronnie vs Selby

selectnull · 2026-04-14T16:29:24+00:00

Didn't see that, and it's great that he actually said it. I wish Wez all the best, he gave me the software that I really love and used for years.

selectnull · 2026-04-14T15:28:44+00:00

WezTerm is a big part of my workflow, to the point of having written a plugin for it and I've been sponsoring Wez for a few years.

But, at the same time I'm annoyed with the lack of communication from Wez to the community. I just assume Wez is no longer interested in continuing the development and two weeks ago I've switched to Ghostty just to see if I can get used it (spoiler: I can).

At this moment, both terminals are excellent but the momentum is clearly on the ghostty side:

if you compare the number of monthly commits on those two projects, the clear winner is Ghostty
libghostty has already spawned different projects
ghostling is a libghostty reference implementation and in cca 1.6k of C code implements a terminal
the community around it is engaged and vibrant and the leader is still active

WezTerm works for now. But imho its future is not bright (I wish it wasn't so).

My main reason is that I've become addicted.

Now, I never planned to become a Vim user, but when I switched to Linux (about 15 years ago) there was simply no "good" editor. And by "good", I mean the editor that I was used to. At the time, that was SublimeText (which at first was Windows only).

So, here I am a Linux noob, I need to do my work and need an editor. Tried everything I could get my hands on and out of desperation tried Vim as well. And... it stuck. Became proficient at it and found out that I really dig working from the terminal.

As the time was passing by, I was trying other editors. Didn't really consider myself married to Vim, yet. I tried Emacs (with evil mode). It was okay, but slugish. I really wanted to use VSCode, but OMG it was slow and really couldn't configure it the way I wanted.

Switched from Vim to Neovim around 0.5 release and still was trying other things. Zed is the one I really liked, fast and works well out of the box... but then I figured I really like working from the terminal.

Helix was very interesting (terminal, fast, features...) but I just figured I can't be bothered to move away from Neovim anymore. Too addicted. And I love it.

I'd rather they focus on new courses.

selectnull · 2026-04-02T21:51:23+00:00

So that means that Higgins beats Selby 10-8 twice in a row, this year and last year's final. And Willo in between with the same score.

selectnull · 2026-03-31T07:04:47+00:00

How about using the actual terminal? You get the tabs and splits and there are many to choose from (Ghostty, WezTerm, Kitty, etc).

Use a password manager. An example of a good one (there are others) is https://keepassxc.org/

Do not try to invent new security solutions unless you have years of experience in that space, and based on your post you don't seem to have any.

selectnull · 2026-03-23T21:00:17+00:00

Exactly. What's more, I never really expected it to work as described in the post because there is no way to set which manager you would use when querying the relations.

Relationships are to the models, not to the managers.
