Even without any configuration the workflow of using tmux for panes and windows and within I start and quit vim as required seems totally fine.

Isn't it much simpler to use tmux for the vertical split? Or are there any advantages of "vertical buffers" in VIM I should know about?

What is the big deal about this at all?

Seriously, I don't get it. All I can see is that I can choose from some movies and stream them.

But that's neither innovative nor new ...

> This change put tremendous pressure on the lower vertebrae, sticking about 80 percent of adults, according to one estimate, with lower back pain.

So it's evolutions fault now that a lot of people are sitting around all day long?

> And to add insult to injury, the width of a woman’s pelvis hasn’t changed for some 200,000 years, keeping our brains from growing larger.

As if increasing something like the pelvis wouldn't have detrimental consequences in other parts of the life.

> A man’s life-giving organs hang vulnerably outside the body.

So where are the statistics that show that this is a problem to begin with? I don't know anybody who got his family jewels ripped off accidentally - technically it could happen of course.

This whole list is ridiculous. The human body is not a buffet where you can take some of this and some of that. It's all interconnected mechanically and physiologically.

> In every country in the world, male suicides outnumber female. The mystery is why?

It's not mysterious at all ... it's obvious. Men face stricter social judgement and less psychological support.

> Less than 5 per cent do. So mental illness is not an explanation.

What? First of all that is a lot and second of all it is no secret that a very severe depression often keeps people from contacting a doctor and being diagnosed. In Germany you are facing easily several months until treatment. When do you contact a doc - when you are suffering the worst - when do you commit suicide? - then - and you are not diagnosed yet.

This perspective is ignorant at best, if not arrogant and maybe even plain stupid.

Africa is the poorest continent on the planet. And one reason why so many countries there are in such bad shape is very well directly connected to the "White Man".

Are you aware of the damage European colonialism caused in the 19th century and how much of damage to socities, environment and economics in African countries was caused by US corporations enforcing political systems and establishments that would allow them to steal resources from those countries?

The Western countries do have a lot of direct and indirect responsibility for people suffering over there.
