He followed me home, mommy, can we keep him?

No, dear, it’s against the law now.

DON’T BE FOOLED! This post was made by the cat! It wants narrower TV stands so it can knock them over easier when its owner forgets to feed it!

There’s a tutorial for using Emacs - the key combination to enter the tutorial is on the welcome screen (I think it’s “CTRL-h t” but I don’t have it in front of me). It doesn’t cover elisp.

There are two elisp manuals available via the info system (CTRL-h i), a reference manual and an introductory text. They’re also available in other formats and are online as well. The reference manual is kept current with every release. I’m not sure about the introductory text, but the core of elisp hasn’t changed (I think) since lexical scoping was made the default several years ago.

Edit: added availability of manuals in non-info formats.

Exhibit #1 why Hexbear/Lemmygrad are unpopular: this guy

I believe you’ve answered your own question.

Lemmy isn’t Marxist-only. The majority of Lemmy users are what the more vocal Lemmygrad and Hexbear users deride as “libs.” As a thought experiment, imagine that you are one of us for a moment and then browse Local on one of those.

Accusing people like Stallman of being rapists dilutes the meaning of the word.

Is he creepy? Sure. Does he have rather unpopular opinions on what constitutes pedophilia? Yep. Does he go around forcing people to have sex with him? No.

I’m for it, mostly because that’s how I was taught to write in school.

I assume you’re basing the abuse argument on the WWE logo in the corner. Everyone who didn’t notice that (me included, at first) just see a girl with a “how dare he?” look on her face. Which is actually pretty funny.

In case you’re wondering where all the downvotes are coming from.
