These threads are always so entertaining. Someone will make up this pastoral romance while implying that the city life is somehow lacking. Then someone will do the opposite and the wars will begin. Very entertaining.

For my part, I enjoy modal editors so I think vim is better than emacs and I like the GPL over BSD.

We need more fuel on this fire. What's your take on spaces vs tabs?

[jkepler]

That farmer is happy keeping tabs on his space. He enjoys his work, his place, and doesn't much mind (it seems) what others think of him.

The Butlerian jihad is coming for you all.

[glitchc]

Tabs of course. Spaces are for people who keep missing the tab key. Maybe the target is too small to hit.

Ask ‘make’ about that :)

Calm down, Satan

I think you misunderstood the issue people have here. It is not the pastoral Vs city life that is the issue. It is the OP assertion that this guy has been lobotomized because he is content with his life.

[renewiltord]

Haha no, that's par for the course. Each one of these people will always make some remark like this. "You leave no impact on the Earth. 40 yrs in your apartment and then burnt in a crematorium. Who knows you existed? Villageboi leaves legacy. Cityboi never existed. No trace."

"Yeah, but villageboi is a lobotomized mole. I am sophisticate. You have no frontal lobe"

The peak of discourse. Hahaha. And then depending on which lifestyle you have chosen, people will pick some arbitrary thing to argue about.

"You said villageboi. Actually, I am village girl. And it's not village. It's farm"

"You said lobotomy. Actually, it's a corpus callosotomy"

That's what makes it so entertaining. The idea that people think they're being all this sharp when really they're just offended that their preferences were made fun of.

But you're clearly an Emacs user. See you on your way back from the RSI doctor, nerd!

[noir_lord]

Yeah that was an offensive way to put his point for no reason.

It's also a failure of empathy on OP's part - we look at the world through our own lens but we should at least try to look at it through other peoples before accusing them of choosing "lobotomy".

I prefer <TRIBE_DESIGNATION>. The other tribe is wrong sick and cease to be. :D
