I’m just using a self hosted git repo with markdown files. I was having trouble finding something open source that I could edit with vim that also had a good mobile solution. I also didn’t want to get locked into a file format that was specific to an app.

Markdown is ubiquitous and I use git all the time as a developer so it was easier to tack something onto an existing workflow. It’s a little janky but at least I won’t be screwed by devs abandoning whatever app I was using.

I found it to surprisingly easy to read. I knew about the characters beforehand but never saw them used extensively in words I understand. Let’s bring ðem back

It has to be if your name is on it

Now the day I was born The nurses all gathered 'round And they gazed in wide wonder At the horror they had found The head nurse spoke up Said, “Leave this one for dead” She could tell right away That my bones were bad

My bones are bad My bones are bad B-B-B-B-Bad B-B-B-B-Bad B-B-B-B-Bad

My bones are bad

I pop in every month or so. I’ll see ya around!

Nevermind the bolder, what is going on with random boxes on the ceiling? Did the architect forget to include the ductwork in their design or something?

I think I got “cunT” once and gave myself a heart attack because I thought I had accidentally committed a frustrated debugging log message to a work repo. I found it while searching for swears but it was in a file I hadn’t changed

I tried it out because of the memes and stuck with it because there wasn’t a bunch of extra stuff I don’t need distracting me. I kinda forget I’m using arch btw

I the like the Han dynasty because it was run by a sole smuggler

Did you have the light switch outside the bathroom too? That way your friends can make you poop in the dark

My boy Faramir taught me to not hate the soldier on the ground

This is true but coal mining is just as bad and requires orders of magnitude (mineral fuels) more excavation than all of the other minerals combined. If we can stop mining coal by using renewables the total amount of mining will be a fraction of what it currently is. Plus many of the other minerals can be reused where coal just ends up as carbon in the atmosphere.

Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter! Spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!

Physically bobbing and weaving to avoid swords in Dark and Darker

I’m standing at an Amtrak station right now. Quit teasing me with these steamy pics

That serenity is why I enjoy running Arch with basically nothing on it. My OS doesn’t do shit and I love it

I didn’t know about this. Thank you for the knowledge fellow human!

Except we won’t have the sentient or even good AI

A lot of the comments are talking about writing being the game changer but it took generations of selective breeding crops and livestock to make them viable for domestication. We haven’t found any evidence of domestication prior to about 12k years ago in archeology or genetics. There were many civilizations who built large cities and never needed a writing system.

I wanted to share the article with friends and copy a part of the text I wanted to draw attention to but the asshole site has selection disabled. Now I will not do that and timesnownews can go fuck themselves
