Threads Update ๐Ÿ””๐Ÿงต

Weโ€™re rolling out a beta of our fediverse integration in a few countries, including the US. Starting today, people who are 18 or older with a public profile can opt into a test that lets you share to the fediverse. You wonโ€™t be able to see replies or follows from the fediverse yet, but youโ€™ll be able to see the total number of likes from Threads and the fediverse. To turn on sharing to the fediverse, go to your Account Settings and tap on Fediverse sharing.

emacs vs vi

What's that all about? I've been messing about with Linux and commercial unixes since 1998, and I've never used emacs, nor met anybody who uses it. I assume it's a text editor (else why would it be vs vi), but apparently it can visit websites, join online chats, edit graphics, wash the dishes and solve world peace?

I'm not sure how I know this since, to repeat, I've never knowingly met anybody, in person, or virtually, who uses it. What's going on?

Emacs is a world wide conspiracy to ensure the global dominance of Lisp, which itself is a way of using up the excess manufacture of parentheses.

When I was walking back from the auto parts store with four brake pads in one hand and my N95 dangling from the other, my next door neighbor said "still masking? How long are you going to keep that up anyway?"
What I said: until people stop dying of covid.
What I thought: dude you were in the hospital on a respirator for a month in 2020 and in the last year have had two heart attacks and a stroke.
