Hi, That’s a surprising issue, especially if the scratch buffer is the only text buffer in which the undo doesn’t work. Here is what I’m thinking right now:

• Just to be sure, isn’t your scratch buffer in read-only ? You can toggle that with C-x C-q.
• Is the keybinding you are using to undo set properly ? You can check it with C-h k C-/ (for example, for checking C-/).
• If it’s none of these, I’d try to run the undo function directly with M-x undo to see if you can get some meaningful error messages.

I confirmed with both my personal config that uses undo-tree (great tool btw) and also in a default configuration of Emacs; both cases work fine to undo in scratch.

Hope any of that can help!

Cheers

Pregnancy is counted from the first day of her last period. Most women find out they’re pregnant at 5-6 weeks. This is essentially a total ban on abortion.

the problem with your argument is that it's a relatively short road trip into states that don't have strict gunlaws, where criminal organizations are buying cash at gunshows (and without background checks. "legally".) and smuggling them into california relatively easily.

In fact, i would suggest your making an excellent argument that GUN CONTROL LAWS WORK!

Also speaking as someone whose been into 3d printing for ages, I can go to homedepot or lowes or whatever other hardware store, drop around $30-50 dollars on plumbing and hardware and make something that's fully automatic... . The fact that people are not doing- and haven't been doing so- suggests either that it is easier to just buy it.

WHICH IS ANOTHER ARGUMENT THAT SHOWS GUN CONTROL LAWS WORK.

I mean think about it. It's easier and less risky for them to do a day trip into arizona or texas, or wherever, and buy it, than it is to anonymously buy a printer and sell them. (or they're just too dumb.) So clearly, a federal law mandating background checks (and a reasonable holding period to get that to happen,) and closing loopholes around BGC's seems like a no-brainer solution that would ensure firearms aren't going into straw buyer's hands, right?

As for cleaning things up, you are technically right, we're past it. But that's an argument of defeat: any gun control law is better than known. the statistics comparing similar populations internationally compared to US statistics make it blatantly obvious; moreover there are a number of countries that were as bad or worse, that managed it.

But, republicans seem care more about their guns than they do their children. Until that changes, nothing changes.

First if all, you're not wrong. Depending on the financial risk in play, the anxiety and trust get tossed into a tizzy.

When I say financial risk, if I'm buying a car, we all already know that that's a whole racket. Buying a house, even bigger $$$$ involved. Buying a staple commodity, like a loaf of bread? Meh, it's no biggie.

One big factor in play is our emotional side.

I'll make a suggestion here. Feel free to ignore.

There's a book by Dr Robert Cialdini on persuasion. From what I recall, he got into learning how humans react to certain things, because he felt that he himself was duped into doing/buying things that he later realized he wished he hadn't done/bought. He wanted to better understand the process so that he could be more aware and less vulnerable to the grift. He ended up going into psychology and... well, specializing in the subject.

One sec, there's a website that gives a nice intro to this:

He's not a politician and has shown no interest in being one, so why are people talking about this? So tired of seeing his face all over Lemmy/KBin
