“Ghoul” is not a slur. You saying that seeing an unpleasant word next to a word that reminds you of anime is at all equivalent to a slur is frankly ghastly of you.
You’d almost have a leg to stand on if they changed it to “Captain Weeaboo” or something, but even then the comparison is a stretch. You’re showing up at somebody’s funeral to say “I scraped my knee, that’s bad too! We’re all equal as humans, so I deserve to speak”.
Grow up.

The problem is not that thin-skinned people could do mental gymnastics to find reasons to be upset, it’s that ‘coon’ is straight up a racial slur that was historically a major tool of oppression.
Still extremely customizable, and peerless rolling release features.
You can mix and match stable and bleeding edge packages very easily and switch at any time.
When packages make breaking changes, Gentoo will warn you and guide you through the migration before you update and only if you have the affected package installed.
Easymotion is the only plugin I need to be happy.
I like that more behaves like cat when there’s less than a page of output rather than requiring you to press
q
to get back to the prompt even when it would just fit.There’s probably a way to make less do that too, but more already does it without configuration. Overall I use less most of the time but I like having the option.
Super interesting; I wonder whether the fraction of nodes that need to be represented by cycles eats into the performance benefit vs. other approaches.
