I’ve used XMPP for this before, using ejabberd as the server and Conversations/Monal as the client, it worked pretty well, altho ejabberd can be a bit of a handful to get running initially.

I haven’t tried running a matrix server, but ejabberd has been very solid, and it’s not too difficult to set up.

Dunno where CP/M got it from but PIP and REN use DEST.EXT=SRC.EXT, so that arg style dates back to then at least.

Also, CP/M 2.2’s ED is great, it’s my daily driver editor on my RC2014.

E: Wow, I really can’t type.

Vectrex, hands-down.

The hell is autocorrect? (I use Unexpected Keyboard)

Also, my distro of choice is generally Debian or Kubuntu. I am aware that using canonical’s distro is gonna get me skinned alive, and I have serious issues with some of the OS, but it also hasn’t given me enough frustration to outright replace it yet. Especially when you consider that I’m running it on a Surface Pro 9 of all things, and Debian doesn’t have a new enough Plasma version last I checked.

Wow, that was a rant, oops.

In theory you can fire up vi(m) in an emacs terminal, so… I guess?

I call my server “the server”, “the shitbox”, or “the 36TB”, my pc “the PC”, and my surface… “the surface”. Creative, I know.

Accidentally put grub on the wrong partition on the device, which it was not happy with. Was able to copy some files over, manually boot the OS, and reconfigure grub to be in the right partition, took me about 2 hours? Then I did it again on a different machine, and speedran it lol

Started with Raspbian when I first got my Pi, and have mostly used KUbuntu or Debian since.
