How I use my terminal

As someone that was happy that I could finally afford owning computers with a graphics display on them, this going back to the terminal doesn't stop surprising me.

We still do horses, but hardly anyone is favouring them for travelling around the continent delivering mail.

Kudos to the people that would rather experience that, I guess.

The point isn't really the lack of graphics, it's more about the use of a keyboard and text as a universal data format.

Graphical programs look nice but are a nightmare for interoperability.

Having said that, as an Emacs user I'm surprised that anyone goes to this much effort to not use Emacs. This is what it's made for and it's all built in the most hacker-friendly way imaginable.
