I put up my gopher server and I've actually posted a couple of things there, so maybe it's not an impulse server decision.

"This bookmark manager supports fuzzy search"

For some reason, this does seem like much of a feature.

Any recommendations for a local bookmark server/system that isn't awful to set up?

It's only for personal use. "Cloud" is unnecessary. If it's web-based, something that goes in cgi-bin would be sufficient. Even a decent Firefox plugin is fine.

As a side effect, I am no longer using Emacs purely in a terminal. Slightly conflicted about that.

Decided to start using FreeBSD as a desktop OS again. Emacs X Window Manager ftw.

Fonts are still kinda lame compared to Win10 and macOS, but at least I'm not using bitmap ones anymore.

Apress, being a bunch of jerks.

I've tried every combination of those checkboxes and I keep getting their ridiculous offers. Seriously, look at the junk being pumped out.

I'm really happy to help Canada Learning Code, but I wish they would stop writing this sort of thing.

"The web without HTML and CSS would be would be a world without colourful, pretty websites, not to mention the web applications we all use daily. It’s easy to learn, and was designed so that everyone - even non-programmers - can do it."

"I am so smart! S-M-R-T!"

That face just makes my day.

What a shame.

"The wellness crusade, however, invites people to feel constantly anxious about their health, even when feeling entirely well."

In many ways, I miss NNTP. Is anyone doing something akin to it these days?

I love decentralized things, but let's not kid ourselves. It's not just going to happen.

"Yet the decentralized Web advocates persist in believing that the answer is new technologies, which suffer from the same economic problems as the existing decentralized technologies underlying the "centralized" Web we have. A decentralized technology infrastructure is necessary for a decentralized Web but it isn't sufficient. Absent an understanding of how the rest of the solution is going to work, designing the infrastructure is an academic exercise."
