Yes, and that's why the immigrants who make it are the best and brightest. The average ones didn't cut it.

Living in the US is a privilege not a right until you become a citizen.

The benefits are split $200,000 for faang and -$150,000 the rest of the country though.

> That's just not true. All but a handful of the smallest LAN parties I attended I the 90's and early 00's included console gaming. It was pretty much assumed there would be consoles at a LAN.

You should have gone to better parties.

Until you dropped your screen on the drive way into your friends house and heard the magic sound a CRT makes when it implodes.

That's literally what it's for. Forth is the simplest language to get running on hardware which you have no idea how to program directly. Much easier than doing it for C.

Split screen was never a part of lan parties. The reason why lan parties stopped was because it was hard to move a tower around.

Even during that period it was much easier to go to a lanshop and play there either as in lan or on the proto cloud servers they had.

Many fond memories of early battle.net and much fewer of steam.

Intel to the German high command that allied troop strength would be severely depleted in the 1919/1920 winter.

Just buy a keyboard ffs.

To anyone reading: don't just be a consumer. There are enough projects made for people who just consume. Emacs is still a project run for people who make stuff with it. Please go somewhere else if you have no interest in building anything.

>I'm a writer and I'm really good at punctuation and spelling, do I really need to learn how to write a good story?

Vim is a text editor, emacs is a text manipulator. If you never want to do more than copy a rectangle of text from region a to region b then you don't need more than vim. If you want to write tools that fit your workflow you need to know elisp.

No.

Vim is a text editor.

Emacs is a lisp interpreter whose dialect of lisp is specialized for text manipulation. In emacs the user interface is incidental to the main goal of programmatic text manipulation.

In vim the user interface is the be all and end all. Which is why vim is now a specialized emacs mode when you need character based text manipulation.

Yes.
