It was a sad day when my college discontinued pine support.

I mostly edit config files. Nano has syntax highlighting, search, find+replace. What else do I need?

Plus it’s easy to walk someone else through using it, if I need to do tech support.

My college library has many class texts on the reserve shelf. This allows students who might not be able to afford a personal copy of a text to borrow the text for a few hours or days (depending on the item’s lending policy).

Even when I was an undergrad, the campus library had textbooks on reserve. I mostly used this to access the questions from the current edition of the textbook, so I could use the cheaper previous edition. I promise you, Mechanical Stress Analysis doesn’t change much, year to year.

They’re giving “did they die of it or with it?” vibes. (actual thing I was asked about my father’s COVID-19 death. Apparently since he was immunocompromised his death didn’t ‘count’.)
