Building the WORST Emacs Configuration!

• I didn’t make the Vertico Extensions video yet… because Karthik just posted one!
• I’m working on a couple of other video ideas, will post one next week
• On Flux Harmonic, I started writing a custom scripting language inspired by Scheme
• The Guix Days online conference is looking for presenters: https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2022/online-guix-days-2022-announcement-1/

Today we’re going to do the unthinkable…

I’ve already been getting some suggestions from Reddit and System Crafters IRC but I haven’t captured them all yet. I want your suggestions!

YouTube makes it difficult to paste links in chat, so submit your code suggestions as issues to the GitHub repository:

It needs a horrible appearance. It should also sound really annoying.

The FSF and GNU project are wrong about “user freedom,” they deserve to be imprisoned
