It could be interesting if the instance you use is from your country, language, or special interest group or something. Then the Local views will be a sort of high priority list and All gets you to the federated content.

For a complex topic, what would be a better alternative?

Having a 1000000000 word article that contains all the alien language (jargon) and basic education needed to build up to the explanation?

A short, simple, and completely wrong explanation?

I just wish it wasn’t completely on rails. And didn’t keep switching to the M4 in every cutscene. And wasn’t only on PS3.

Some cities winter cycle just fine. Oulu is often in the news about that.

But yes, it gets hard if there’s distance and frequent bad weather and hostile traffic and bad road maintenance.

I hope some /c/hobbycnc and /c/3018cnc type communities will pop up soon.

This really is very annoying.

I’ve moved to neovim myself after 20+ years of vim and 30+ years of programming with various editors and even monitors. I’ve used IDEs when in projects where everyone does and where the build may rely on them (yes, that’s a disaster) or when it’s the only tool offered (old obscure embedded systems). But I’ve never wanted to use any of them or found the results useful. Debuggers and editors can be extended to do anything extra an IDE does.

Extra tips: Helix might have an even better command system. Kate almost works like an IDE and offers a vi command mode in a GUI editor.

Lately, sheet music. I picked up a few classical and Spanish guitar books from the local library and have been working on a tune here and there.

I learned to read notes sometime in the mid 80s but I’ve always been slow. I also never really got very good at finding notes on the fretboard quickly. So far it looks like this is doing wonders for both as well as putting some thought into chords and harmony. That will be another thing to focus on eventually. Among many.

Also, I bought a nylon string acoustic that’s older than I am and only fairly lightly damaged for quite cheap, so there’s that. See, GAS had to be involved somehow.

There are at least two alternatives already: lemmur and jerboa. In addition the federation probably makes it practically impossible to block other apps and web frontends be etc. And you can run and use an old web front to your heart’s content.

For a buyer or player? Complete bs probably used to inflate prices.

For someone researching guitar manufacture? Potentially interesting.
