1915 Lemmy lib: “God the German propaganda on .ml is intense”

The propaganda: Peace pls

Any info I encounter contrary to the interests of my preferred empire must be the work of the dastardly Foreigner. If the other side wanted peace they should simply unconditionally surrender (skull can barely contain brain of this size)

And if they won’t, we Ukrainians must be willing to give up their lives in a total war until victory (which is going well and good and can be expected to end in that outcome)

Russia’s terms have been quite clear since the beginning of the war: a neutral, non-West-aligned Ukraine and the official ceding of Crimea and the breakaway republics. Even regardless of how you feel about those issues, how does it benefit you or the average Ukrainian to keep fighting over this? It is such a pointless, devastating loss of life over shit that obviously represents larger geopolitical issues for the West and Russia while Ukraine is turned into a literal wasteland (omg and the Ukrainian side has been financed by massive Western loans , even if Ukraine “wins” they are gonna be fucked when the creditors come for their repayments after the war which is intentional ofc, will probably result in even more IMF austerity plans and poverty)

Idk, maybe the Ukrainian side could get better terms (they def could have earlier) but they have just refused to actually negotiate (beyond telling the world how “open” they to are it lol) and have taken your total victory position. Ofc there is so much more to say but yeh

A better timeline?

Windows UI design peaked with Windows 98 and Unix UI design peaked with IRIX imo

I am so tired haha

Okay but it was less , relatively to now

Ohh, I know, I was just making a joke cuz ed will print ? when it doesn’t recognize a command and many people will see that over and over if they can’t figure out how to exit lol

I also got lost in vi and ed when I first used them lol

Tbh if I’m just making quick edits to config files or whatever I use nano lmao

Ate a snack cake thing I got yesterday, and then discovered a warning about lead and cadmium on the back of the package

If you like Unixy editors, highly recommend also looking into acme

Russ Cox describes it in this video as more like an “integrating development environment” as in it works with your surrounding operating system rather than an “integrated development environment”

Doesn’t shine as much on Unix as in Plan 9 though. Also no linter or formatter built into or distributed with acme but you probably could get your language’s usual tools to work pretty well with it

Ed is the standard text editor.

I uhh wasn’t literally about to go do this or anything…

Why don’t they just move to El Salvador if they like Bitcoin so much
