What about LG smart soundbars? I always kept the TV offline but the soundbar, if not connected to internet, exposes an unprotected hotspot that anyone can connect to and take control over the soundbar, forcing you to connect it to internet.

If you know what you want to build, typing becomes a real bottleneck.

Apparently this is just a mirror of the original tree tool source code, which dates back to the 1990s.

Vim has many features that do not belong to a text editor, like `:make`, `gd` or even QuickFix.

> I really wish Vim would add Neovim's Lua API

If by that you want Vim to become compatible with Neovim Lua plugins, Vim will have to add and maintain compatibility with the whole Neovim non-Lua API as well (new functions, options etc). This will never happen.
