    Reminder not to use this stuff as usernames, in posts, etc. on the web because it WILL mess up screen readers for the impaired, as well as make translation for non-native readers difficult. This goes for the “cursive” text some people use on Twitter too.

    (This site is also a peak example of why I hate Disqus. Disqus almost always either gets 0 comments, a few scam links, or filled with the trash spam on this page)

    I edited the link to the Atlantic one. Note that if anybody gets stuck at a paywall they can access the Pocket link to the same article in the topic log.

    Yeah no problem! This post gave some more insight and got more interaction anyways, so it’d probably be best to keep up.

    I hung out with my dormmates (my friend group stayed as long as possible, so we were the only four people left in our dorm section) a lot for our last weekend on campus before our two month long winter break. We watched some movies, went to get takeout, and in general had a blast. Midnight walks around campus are pretty fun too.

    We packed our things and moved furniture around to meet the distance requirements from heaters. A few days ago us four got tested for COVID together at a drive through clinic (roll down window and they do the test for you) since we are around each other a lot (we don’t have symptoms), and the results all came in today as negative. This was all primarily done to ensure we feel safe going home to family. After I’m home for a few days staying somewhat distant from family, I plan on getting tested again.

    There is FreeTube for desktop which afaik uses the NewPipe Extractor. It is not part of the NewPipe team’s development though, it’s made independently.

    I edited the link to that. Luckily it was archived before it went down for whatever reason.

    From what I interpret it means that perhaps the brain has been tricked into thinking that the train hasn’t been stopped. But I believe that stopping the train isn’t necessarily the best solution.

    It is very clearly meant to be humorous in how over the top it is. I find it funny. Your comment isn’t constructive at all.

    No problem! It’s good to know that it works still.

    Can you further explain what that would do? I already limit text width to 80 characters maximum, so I'm not sure what this would change. The live preview doesn't get altered where I tested.

    I'm listening to your audiomo content currently and I really like it. The media elements do go into the margins but that's not too problematic. You'd also benefit from more prominent navigation buttons. It took me a bit to find them. I also like how your content is well sorted, and the variety of it. Definitely adding you to my feeds.
