one should not chase the electric dream, but strive to became an extension to its dreamer
Automatism in the age of the children of Unix.
It's a box of antique photographs. A blade, a girl and a fish. Whatever it means, you're invested.
Now that you're a surrealist, become a Techno-Mage:

Good to see girl is wearing a safety vest. That Ctrl key might break your pinky finger at any point!
If you're using your pinkie you're doing it wrong...
I dunno. Those
vimusers get a muscular left pinky from mashing Escape like a rat on a cocaine dispenser.I'm pretty sure that a typical
emacsuser has more chorded Control-key presses than a typicalvimuser does Escape key presses.But I'm not at all sure that that's true of actually toggling the respective keys up and down, and if you figure that that's most of the physical work... Like, if I hit
C-x C-sand thenC-x C-fin emacs, I'm not actually releasing the Control key between the four chorded keypresses. Avimuser is gonna maybe smack Escape to go from insert to system mode, then do their:w|eor whatever. That'd be the same number of Escape and Control keypresses.EDIT: Normal mode, not system mode.
