        I do not believe you.

        Arch Linux

        Okay, fine. A rare sighting.

            Yay! Cencorship! I spent an extra 3 seconds focusing on the word psychopath trying to figure out what went wrong instead of reading it like a normal word. Isn’t that so much better than offending an algorithm with the letter ‘h’?

                There are dozens of us. And we are used to reading manuals, since we first installed our system.

                  I was going to ask how he knew it was Arch, but I feel like that is just setting up the next comment.

                    I had an internship 15 years ago where I was forced to write C++ with no internet access. I had to use a programming manual and man pages.

                      I can’t live without vim.

                      Sometimes I wander into vscode but it’s less productive for me.

                      Plus vscode has weird name inconsistencies (the app is called visual studio code, it’s branded as vscode, and the menu bar says Code), which is probably normal for Microsoft but unusual elsewhere.

                        I still remember my Masters degree in distributed computing. C++ in vi (not even vim), monochromatic display, 36 computers working together to give me a bunch of SIGSEGV.

                          I was there. I was one of them. I just chose to use tools to make my life easier. Call me a sell out, I guess.

                            But he went out of his way to install man pages on arch? Probably a narc.

                              Nope, not a sell out. Just a person using the tools at hand. You can't just live in the past. You did it without Google back then because there was no Google and you had to use what you had to use. Now you use Google, because again, you have to use what you have to use. In the end, I personally only care about the outcome.

                              I just chose to use tools to make my life easier

                              If you don't then I'd call you stupid. Keep doing that, friend. That's the best way actually. You want your life easier so you can put out great work.

                                I should fork vim and call it 'death', so I can shout "give me vim or give me death!" any time someone suggests a different editor.

                                      The joys of distributed algorithms. You can now get more errors, more quickly than before!

                                      I remember writing a chat system in assembler, for DOS, using, IIRC, IPX networking. When it went wrong, one or more machines would just freeze, with the string "NETWORK ABEND" in the middle of the screen.

                                          I'm talking about developers in general before even Linux was a thing. I thought that was obvious in my comment. Guess not, I need to work more on my English.
