Both GNU ed and OpenBSD ed support wq as an extension to POSIX. But yeah, it all depends on whether you want to stick by POSIX or common practice. I personally prefer wq for interactive sessions and w\nq for scripts.

Yeah, that’s a really valuable thing to have an affirmation for one’s feelings and experiences. Especially when worded well.

The post used an example of a Bumble match though. So it kind of makes sense one can discuss it alongside the main message.

I wonder why Apple just doesn’t use Readability.js instead of using a really crude set of heuristic they put into their own Reader Mode.

Did the old GUI frameworks allow selecting text though? I had another commenter explain that selectable text is a totally different type of widget than a regular non-selectable text, and a much more involved/heavyweight too!

Links with target=_blank are annoying too. I want my click to open in this tab, and ctrl+click to open in new one. Give me mu fucking choice.

You can use OS-native ways for that, no need to burn forest just for text OCR.

Right, the more steps there are in the process, the more people just drop and forget it.

That’s a terrible use of technology. You can just read that. No need for a forest-burning slop machine there.
