As I noted in my patch message and in the previous post, behavior gets a li'l weird when someone leaves mml-enable-flowed on (the default!) but forgets to turn on use-hard-newlines (not the default! And since it's buffer local, it needs to be turned on every single time, for example with a hook).

So with these two settings kept at their defaults, separate paragraphs will get flowed together with my patch! So I sent a new version of the patch to the same #71017 thread that'll auto-harden according to markdown semantics as a dwimmy fallback.

Emacs RFC 2646 email flowing (idiomdrottning.org)

Emacs RFC 2646 email flowing

Heck it Emacs!

A few months ago I fixed a bug in RFC 2646 handling where the last paragraph wouldn't get reflowed unless I remembered to add a hard newline (that is, a newline with the 'hard text property) after it, at EOT. I needed to hit one extra RET at the end. All other paragraphs would be wrapped, not just the last one.

(I even bugged @jas@fosstodon.org about it.)

But it still didn't always work and today I tried to get to the bottom of why, spending the entire day debugging it, finally realizing that... It's not even being called when there's only one paragraph in the email. I wasted so much time before realizing that! And then getting to the bottom of why that wasn't happening was the opposite of easy but it turnes out that Gnus by design doesn't call the fill-flowed-encode function when there aren't any hard newlines in the buffer. Which there aren't gonna be if it's a single-paragraph letter ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

Use-hard-newlines is beyond useless since that's always buffer-local and the text-reflowing is being done in a temp buffer. Instead since 2010 we're supposed to set mml-enable-flowed to true. But don't worry, fans of the messages-are-flowing package, I'm gonna send patches there to reflect that. I have a bunch of other changes to that package too since I've been using that a lot this summer.

This is all in bug#71017 (cursed palindrome!) for people who wanna dig in ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿซ

Kudos to CR for listening to the backlash on this illconsidered project. They must've taken quite a hit ๐Ÿ’ธ but this was not a good idea. I mean, they have their fair share of bad sponsors like NordVPN or D&D Beyond but this was a li'l too much ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

I think this is spot on and I overall dislike the game. One thing that I am a li'l bit interested in is the hitpoints system which seems like a good mix of Fate stressboxes with D&D damage.

The amount of incoming damage can go to certain thresholds and that has different consequences (both symbol-layer mechanical and diegetic). I think that's neat and I'm glad to see that experiment carried further.

How much gold is in that hoard?

Wow, I had missed that. That's not good. I mean, CR gets criticized for their "shopping episodes" (even though my own group is even more extreme in that regard) so maybe that's to address that? Diaspora, for example, just has a "recourses" roll instead of detailed accounting of space credits, and it seems to work well in the context of that game.

How far does that bandit run?

I don't think that's a fair characterization; range bands is trued and tested tech. Cartesian spatialization is overkill for most game groups.

There's a lot of extreme content on the Fediverse (such as harassment).

Not sure. There's a lot of kinda creepy stuff on here ๐Ÿ˜ฐ

Weird order of switch-to-buffer with packages that augment completing-read?

I'm using vertico, consult, consult embark, and orderless and it's OK but for switch-to-buffer specifically it kind of bugs me that the order isn't connected to the last-used-order (the order that list-all-buffers uses). I'm like "I just used that buffer three seconds ago and now I need to search for it?!"

Help please? ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป โ™ฅ @emacs@lemmy.ml

The wrong thing was that "It doesn't matter what the US does" when the US is exceptionally culpable on the demand side, the drill side, and the policy side.

@thorbot@lemmy.world

And looking at per capita, consumtion based, the US is ten times as bad as China. US: 20 tons per person. China: 2 tons. I think the world average is 4t.

China still needs to cut down because 2 tons is a lot more than what is OK but holy shit saying

But the problem is, even if all of the US came together and stopped 100% of our emissions, China would still continue to pump out 90% of the world emissions

is the wrongest thing I've ever heard. There are very few countries on this planet who arr doing worse than the US:

Why does replace-regexp backwards work so differently?

C-u - M-x replace-regexp \w+

The - prefix arg replaces backwards but it hits one char at a time, as if the plus sign weren't there. The same replacement forwards (without the prefix arg) does hit one word at a time. What's going on, @emacs@lemmy.ml?

Here are the emotes I wished existed on Arena:

โ€ข Hello
โ€ข Dang it, I made a misplay, but that's OK
โ€ข I like your style
โ€ข Noooo!
โ€ข Good game

I don't wanna say "Oops". That just sounds sarcastic.

It would've been great if the free peoples of Middle-Earth had been Rakdos-colored and the tyranny of Sauron and Saruman had been based on white mana.

The Lidless Eye is working towards homogeny and stagnation. Kind of a missed opportunity to break from the "black magic is evil" trope ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ @mtg

I used to say "I sleeved up Flash Wolves" (or w/e deck name) to mean that I've put together and started using a new deck, whether a brew or a netdeck. But I need to find a new phrase now that I am increasingly playing formats where I don't sleeve.
