@kensanata This is pretty neat. Could this be used as a backend to ediff? (I'm not even sure whether ediff calls out to an external diff process or not)

I keep having heart-stopping issues whene'er I update my macOS. E.g. refuses to boot, needs 5 restarts, etc. Every time it happens I wish I had a hot backup laptop that I could continue working on.

I'm aware of Paperspace but the lag + connectivity requirements make it difficult. Any suggestions? #backup #security #hotlaptop

@NicolasPetton @johnson I have the 3 switch pedal for Kinesis Advantage 2. Ctrl, Meta and Tab (left->right). I alternate between keyboard keys and foot pedal switches to prevent strain. I really like it but had to buy a foot rest to place it on. Alone it was difficult to hit from a comfortable sitting position. Overall would recommend for heavy Emacs work!

@hqtrivia@twitter.com is a nice distraction. Will be interesting to see what it does to increase user retention.

So many small things about Mastodon that make it delightful. Simple example - I added #emacs as a feed in my mobile app (Tootdon). When I log in to the web client it's saved there too. This sounds simple but requires clear thought to so many parts of how the overall system works. Thank you @Gargron and all other contributors!

@xahlee you can't view and understand all art, but museums still seem to get by. It's not deception to admit that the entire field of mathematics is above one person's comprehension.

Based on a suggestion from @webology I just changed my phone to monochrome. Really liking it already - feels like I can focus on text content more

Super pleasantly surprised to find a track I really like is royalty-free: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qptMg0JWmFY&list=PLGfusIXrWRHKJMo_4wa-2Mhf7JDzCcEj3

@Gargron I made the exact mistake with the MicroKEY Air. Got 25, now would get 49.
