Adding a .vimrc file doesn't require administrator privileges on either Linux or macOS, nor does it require changing anything in System Preferences.

If for some reason you "can't" add a .vimrc file to a user account then you probably shouldn't be manually logging into that user account.

This is the end of Apple. I've been using MAC for over 100 years and this is the final straw. I'll never buy another product from MAC. No function keys on the MACbook, no headphone jack on the Iphone, less space than a nomad. It's bad enough that I need all these dongles for my headphones, SCSI CD drives, and CueCats, and now I need to get even more dongles for my function keys. I knew MAC was going to fail ever since they released the underpowered and un-upgradable toy Imac.

Plus, if you give in and subscribe to the WSJ they go out of their way to make it difficult to unsubscribe, requiring users to call in by phone and be subjected to a sales pitch just to cancel the recurring charges. It's a very scummy retention tactic.

It's quite disappointing to see people defending a company that hires bigoted political activists to crawl users' projects in order to harass users for perceived political transgressions.

And what level of access do these on-staff political activists have to private user information? What measures, if any, does GitHub have in place to prevent one of their political activist employees from using privileged information to go after perceived political enemies or even just retaliate against users who protest being harassed?
