Stockholm Syndrome was never real, it was made up to explain a situation where hostages recognized an injustice and refused to perpetuate it, so cops called them crazy. So sure, if you call me crazy for my affection for a tool that has served me well for decades, I’ll consider you a cop.

This sounds about right. My only quibble is about sick computers and web apps. Twenty years ago I felt good because all I needed was a text editor and a web browser. Nowadays, the hungriest apps on my desktop are Firefox and VS Code.
I use VS Code on the desktop nowadays, but vi will always be my editor of choice in a terminal. Many of the reasons it was powerful and ubiquitous 30 years ago are still valid, so it’s still powerful and ubiquitous. And I’ve been using it for thirty years, so why would I switch to a training-wheels editor?
Get a good dehumidifier with a drain hose option so that you don’t have to keep emptying the tank. It will produce some heat, so placement is important, but it will pull moisture from the air more efficiently than the AC and that will improve the cooling.
Same as everybody else, I think, it’s a case by case basis, weighed against my own baggage and preconceptions, balanced as much as possible with not compromising so far on morals, ethics or principles that I agonize over it.
I haven’t gotten rid of my Gaiman books yet, but I’m not going to be able to read them again without thinking about him, so eventually I’ll figure out how I want to dispose of them. I got rid of anything by Rowling years ago.
If Gaiman could be separated, that might be okay, but I don’t want to buy his shit anymore. I don’t want to support projects that make him rich. I don’t even like having his books in my house now. Gross.
It’s about a poll that concluded in August 8th, though? Do you think that’s useful now?

You don’t understand that I don’t believe these clowns are capable of doing either?
Buddy, I’m not the one trying to convince anybody of anything. All I did was read your comment, then read the article you linked to justify your comment and saw that it just paraphrased the campaign flack. You’re the one in here hollering around about how Stein isn’t a transparent plant. If you think it’s not obvious to any serious person, okay, cool. Enjoy that.
That article just says that the Stein campaign denies it. There’s no substantive investigation documented here, just statements from Stein and the campaign itself. This is just a denial, not a debunking.
Fwiw, I see Jack Black and Renee Elise Goldsberry for these roles.
