Ask HN: Is it still possible to live in a terminal?
It doesn't work for business at all because if you want to do business you have to meet people where they are. You can't email a client and say, sorry, can you please send me that contract in a text file, I only have a terminal. Or, sorry, I can't use your web portal to access the data because it uses JavaScript.<p>If you're not doing business, using the terminal works fine. Up until you have to deal with health insurance or your power bill or your taxes or bank.<p>Unfortunately the world now revolves around [gui] web browsers. We brought this technologically retarded hellscape on ourselves and we deserve it.
