@jacobmparis My personal answer: vim has a very faithful emacs emulator: ESC w q ENTER emacs !$ ENTER However, if you're gonna vim, you should vim. Ctrl-v is visual selection mode (that can multiline edit), . repeats the previous edit, and s/pick/squash/g would search/replace quickly. glhf

@sterlingcobb As of yesterday, @jeg2 is in the wind. He won't be for long. :)

@CorpseKings It's not his name you should fear. It's the fact that the DM let him homebrew H5N1 as a cantrip.

Reviewing some code I wrote with a coworker today. Me: "Man, that is some nice code. The person who wrote this was clearly intelligent and awesome." CW: "A real forward thinker!" Me: "Yeah! He'd be a thought leader... if anybody would follow him."

@Rothmus "I need to sleep but I don't want to go to sleep because then it will be morning."

@EjBeta @GaryD20Games 100% this. My after-school job in the 80's was at a Radio Shack. 286 computer as a cash register, batch terminal approval of cards. Power went out for 2 days, and we all got to learn how to hand-write a receipt, calculate sales tax manually, and impress cards and/or count change.

@GaryD20Games The dry crackle of the carbon paper, the soft crunchy clonk of the impression slider, the frustrated sigh when the first impression didn't take because the receipt slipped. Bonus: the blue glow of the VFD display and click of keys on the batch terminal processor at EOD. #YepImOld

@glimmer_ann I love this quote from Neil Gaiman: "Remember: when people tell you something's wrong or doesn't work for them, they are almost always right. When they tell you exactly what they think is wrong and how to fix it, they are almost always wrong."

@DzintraSullivan TIL that pd is far more pornographic than 69. Nice.

@GaryD20Games "Whaddya mean we gotta talk to this lynx?? The last monster we talked to ate half of the party!"

@GaryD20Games Depends on the day and the feel. My favorite DM savaged us with a brutal encounter when we hit 4th level, and afterwards he laughed and agreed that we could level up immediately to 5. This made me very happy, because access to fireball is sorcerer puberty.

@memeslich Years ago I had a d20 that was misbehaving badly and I threw it across the gaming store. It clattered under the gap under the door to the restroom. A moment later we all heard "It's a four!" #BadTimesMakeGoodStories

Yesterday I learned two new acronyms. First I learned DIR (Drug Interaction Reaction). The best part is it was chronic, and the meds were stopping each other's effects, so we kept upping the dosage, which is how I learned SADE (Severe Adverse Drug Event). Learning is fun! Yay.

Liz was feeling down today and I gave her a big, warm, rocking hug, with soothing backrubs, and made fart noises until she giggled. 28 years of marriage, y'all. This is what it's like.

@memeslich When he has more than 1,000 hours in a single game, let me know. My guild has an open slot.

D&D question: Do you ever use the Friends spell? Me: never. It has always seemed to me to give carte blanche to the DM to make sure that any use of the spell is dramatically overpunished. My sorcerer currently has it because I am deliberately running a Bad Idea / Meme build

@madpoet ELF NEEDS FOOD, BADLY

@jacobmparis C-x C-e, if you're still a bash luddite like me. Idk if it honors $EDITOR or not, but on mine it launches a stripped-down emacs.

@LouiseWeebe I did this with my children and you would not believe how bent out of shape my wife got
