I still vaguely remember compiling Vim 8 from source because Mac only shipped with Vim 7.4 (actually I think I compiled it to play around with gvim but that also got Vim 8 as a bonus)
autocmd's probably safer, yeah. But I dunno, I don't like the idea of having stuff for specific files in our vimrc, it feels like not the right place for it. And there's other files that need this too, like /etc/crypttab... and really any config file that contains a whitespace-separated table.
But yeah, Security. Dunno how much to actually worry about that. Like, if someone can get a nasty modeline in a root-owned config file, then we've got bigger problems!
There once was a village so quaint,
By a glacier, it met a sad fate,
Buried in ice, it was lost,
People mourned the cost,
In sorrow, they couldn't abate.

In Europe, rights must be upheld,
Said the Council of Europe head, quite bold.
Human rights must evolve,
For all to resolve,
A convention to protect, truth be told.

There once was a council so wise,
Said human rights need a revise.
To adapt and to grow,
For a fairer world to show,
A goal that all should idolize.

Vergleich mit dem letzten Wahlergebnis vom 23.02.2025: CDU/CSU: −1,5, AfD: +2,2, SPD: −0,4, Grüne: −0,6, Linke: +2,2, BSW: −1,0, FDP: −1,3.
@quixoticgeek It'd be GREAT until the very first time a Russian oil tanker dragged its anchor across the top of one of its access hatches or ventilation shafts or [insert other infrastructure here]. Or drops a mine on it (shades of the Nordstream 2 sabotage).
Those cities are 500km apart, so about 10x the length of the Channel Tunnel; it's not going to be practical to secure its entire length against attack.
Vergleich mit dem letzten Wahlergebnis vom 14.03.2021: CDU: +2,3, SPD: −12,7, AfD: +8,7, Grüne: +1,7, Linke: +2,5, Freie Wähler: −1,4, FDP: −2,5.

Who made Merkel's legacy jump,
On her White House visit,
He chose to exhibit,
Disdain with a demeanor so grump.
