@mjg59 I loved his “sustainability” book. It would be great if someone updated it or wrote something spiritually similar with today’s numbers.
@mjg59 was that with David MacKay?
@jbouter @kev there’s a vim plugin “taskwiki” that integrates task warrior with another vim plugin “vimwiki”. That’s been my work notes-and-tasks solution for a while. Probably not interesting if you’re not already a vim user. There’s a bit of jank that drove me to write an alternative plug-in in lua (not public yet though)
I don’t automatically fall into camp Kermode but even when I do, he’s forced to really justify his position. Jones keeps him on his toes. And it’s really invigorating to hear a very different perspective
Ellen E Jones (who I wasn’t previously familiar with) really holds her own. They frequently seem to have polar opposite takes. And that makes for really interesting chat

@lasombra_br similar aphorism to “never go to bed on an argument”
I’m so angry and disappointed with the Debian web team. I shouldn’t have checked my mail last thing before bed.
New blog post: Nine Inch Nails, Paris, 2025-07-07 https://jmtd.net/log/nin_paris/ #music
Just a reminder to the people who have been on Mastodon or the Fediverse awhile: remember to follow some new people every once in a while, especially someone with few followers who would just like to connect and be heard by someone. It’s easy to get caught in our routines, but there are new, kind, interesting people joining everyday.
@azonenberg @mcc I use nemo (cinnamon’s fork? Not sure) entirely because of the type ahead find thing, and none of the rest of cinnamon (or gnome)
@metacosm Ah I'm sorry! I considered buying tickets for the Lyon show as well, but didn't before it was cancelled.
Travelling home from Paris after an overnight stop to see Nine Inch Nails. Good show. Still processing it. Feeling my years.
My recent tech-life has enjoyed utter separation between the abomination that is Slack and the dream that is the Remarkable tablet. Until now.
