Prot - the author - is a pretty incredible guy. He maintains a bunch of nice Emacs packages and themes.

But maybe even more remarkable: he got kicked out of his flat in Greece, couldn't afford a new place, bought a small plot of land in the mountains and started building a hut from materials he was able to afford or from things neighbours gave him. Really the bare minimum (he often sat in his hut with a jacket in winter cause it wasn't well isolated/heated)

Absolutely inspiration, all documented on his YouTube channel https://youtube.com/@protesilaos?si=MnjV7MhKtsT5RDSM

"Wouldn't it make life easier for us at Apple if we added all of our product name capitalizations like iMac, iPod, etc. into the autocorrect dictionary? Marketing would probably love it too." -Someone at Apple, probably, circa 2006

And here we are.
