Is it even possible to master emacs?

Although I'm not really terminal-heavy user, I use Yakuake multiple times a day. It's awesome to have it ready all the time with one on keypress...

I don't mind long winded books as long as it's still interesting read with things happening. I'm really looking forward to reading this.

I really like what I've read from him, although it wasn't that much. Book of some short horror stories and The Stand, which was really amazing (to the point I watched that mediocre TV series with Gary Sinise, which was quite let down after the book). I've also recently got Under the Dome, so that'll be my next read I think.

I've heard of it, but did not read it (yet). The story I wrote about was from early 60s, which made it quite unique IMO.

I've read a short story with similar theme from mostly unknown local author. It was called something like "vampire car" and the car did not use fuel, but blood from the driver's foot instead. Due to this it was unbelievably fast, but deadly.

That was unexpected, but welcome message. Thanks for caring.

There's also mojeek.com running their own index. Not perfect, but sometimes usable.

It depends on what programs and how much do you need them. Some are fine with plain wine, some need more tinkering. There are multiple ways, starting from lutris, through bottles, to steam's "non-steam game". But still there are some SW that just won't work on linux no matter what.

Yes, that's it, Freeman's mind. Thank you!

Can someone ELI5 who this guy is? I remember watching couple of his videos years ago, but I could not remember whether he was legit genius, crazy or something in between.

Screw Dota, this must mean Half Life 3! Or at least HL2 Episode 3...
