Hello universe - akts - 21-08-2016
Howdy everyone,
I'm akts. Been a distrohopper for a solid 8 years. Never learned quite the things a real user should have, but hey fun nonetheless :P
Unixmafia's deviantart brought me here. I hope to learn(what I should have) and have fun here. Once again, thank you for having me at the forums.
Love and peace
~akts

mafia comes and goes.
At the moment we don't know where he is.
Our fervent fvwm2 user!
Welcome to the forums.
RE: Hello universe - akts - 21-08-2016
Thanks for the warm welcome venam.
Going through the workflow compilation you guys put up at the moment. Very neat.
mafia's fvwm2 screens are indeed cool. Hmm... I thought he'd be here. A while back P.K Murugan (Daisuke Aramaki) also vanished. There is a tribute screenie in mafia's deviant art though.
Currently learning vim as my first step into nix training. Master z3bra's and Master xero's blogs speak highly of it. I thought I'd start learning emacs after I saw a video of Aaron Bieber smashing vim, but as a system administrator(a horrible one) I concluded vim was the way to go.
P.S there's too much neato stuff here. My eyes bleed :P

You can start by checking the current activities.
RE: Hello universe - akts - 21-08-2016
Cool, thanks mate.

TRAMP with Emacs is a slightly different beast from ssh with vim. With ssh + vim, you can drill your way into the mine and edit files directly as need be. ALternatively with TRAMP in Emacs, you can sit in your cozy parentheses-riddled drill cabin and operate the levers and such to manipulate the files and system you're drilling into.

I didn't know about TRAMP (*sigh face* cries in the corner). Thanks mate, for pointing that out. Are you by any chance related to emacsrocks ?

Hah. I wished. Haven't touched a quarter of these fancy modes to make things easier.

Hello akts!
First of all, welcome to the forums, I'm pretty confident you'll be a good fit in there.
I also got your email. I'm not ignoring you, I just need to take the time to answer it. Sorry in advance for the delay.

I'm just a lazy bum. You just reminded me to set up a couple of hooks for rainbow-mode.
RE: Hello universe - josuah - 26-08-2016
Glad you liked it.

There may even be some sort of manifesto in this post.
RE: Hello universe - apk - 26-08-2016
manifest destiny dude
RE: Hello universe - akts - 28-08-2016
@jkl: Thanks mate.
@sshbio: an so it starts, the hunt for sane defaults :P
@dsplayer14: So much wisdom in 3 words 3:)
@rocx: dude! rainbow mode ?. I just started with vim, don't make me ditch it for emacs. The package is pretty cool. Thanks for the info.
