Bullet Journaling & Fountain Pens

Does anybody bullet journal? I've found adding an index and timeline to my journal has made it much more navigable, and allows me to add lots of stuff to it that I wouldn't otherwise. It's a good alternative to a laptop or phone for when I don't have power, and lets me use my fountain pen more ...

Re: A website dedicated to naming and categorizing bread bag clips

Wow.

This site will actually give me practice on pronouncing my Latin in English. I've been practicing the traditional English pronunciation of Latin as of late.

Archignathidae: ahr-kihg-NATH-uh-dee.

Ampullaenigma thermastris: am-pull-ee-NIG-muh thur-MASS-triss.

Yeah, relying on browsers to interact with services is a dangerous thing. We need to start making native apps to use services that can't be handled in simple browsers like Links. Web Outside Of Browsers, though its software uses immature names, may be a good starting point.

Re: Gemini Protocol

I'm hoping to get my site back on Gemini. Someone added Gemini support to my static site generator, so it should be trivial.

Re: How do you manage your data?

I have an external hard drive that everything gets copied to:
  • home directories
  • media
  • books
  • photos
I need to back this hard drive up to another hard drive...

Re: IRC

I would be in favor of an IRC channel. An XMPP chat would also suffice.
