I was just thinking about the Beau Brummel episode. He was almost an actually good guy too. One of the least bastardly people to be covered.

Maybe like a 2.

I’m gonna be honest, when I read this, I initially thought it was a joke answer by a community menber. The joke being about vague hand-wavy statements that people make when dodging questions.

Then I realized it’s OP, and OP is ostensibly the actual developer. I have nothing specific to say about this situation, especially from a technical perspective, but this reply… why even bother?

Have you considered tiddlywiki? You can selfhost, or use one of a couple of services. I know of https://tiddlyhost.com/

Also you could consider anytype. It’s cool, and I like what they’re going for. I don’t like their weird pretending to be open source license, but it’s still pretty cool software. https://anytype.io

Edit: for my personal stuff, I use a combination of logseq, and tiddlywiki, the latter moreso for game development. I landed on anytype at work because it’s simple, and my boss, nor anyone else cares about a license, and it just works.

Since we’re talking about it, and I really like the guy’s work, I figured I should say who coined it! Author, Cory Doctorow! He has a blog where he (among all the other stuff he writes about) defined the word, and wrote several articles about it.

Using fish (shell, not emulator) gets you some of that.

The Luddites weren’t anti-technology, and never were.

Luddites were always focused on not being ripped off by capitalists. Further reading below.

Yep. Sounds like you can’t really operate without one. :(

That sucks. I’m sorry.

Because if you can operate without one, life is so much better.

Cars ruin cities.

Yes! This is something I do on 3 of my machines. My ArchLinux Distrobox with paru works like a charm. (so far)

Okay, but openai was open source once. And then they just didn’t change their name when they changed their licenses. Which I actually think is more dishonest.

Hey, our mountains can get quite unruly sometimes, what can we say?

Just so you know, everything in that link after ?si= is purely tracking information so Google can know who you send links to, and when they open them.

There’s 6 days left on the EDF Humble Bundle.

No, just go try it.

What? What does an astrotruf-review detection app have anything to do with avast?

This is likely the most asinine thing I hear on a regular basis. Speed limits exist for a reason. If driving the speed limit actually created a hazard, rather than simply creating an annoyance for someone who is willing to drive recklessly to shave a few seconds off their trip, you might have a point, but you don’t.

The only circumstance where it creates a hazard is if everyone else around them is speeding, in which case, the people who are speeding are creating the hazard, not the person following the laws, you know, the ones that are there to enforce safety on the roads.

Depends on the size of the home I suppose. Tiny bungalow? Yeah, a little weird. Three-story? Not weird at all IMO.

Very cool. Had I not just installed (ublue) Kinoite, I’d probably be trying this today. I’m a chronic distrohopper, and this looks very cool.
