@modgethanc @staticsafe we used to have a couple of editor cheatsheets up on the bathroom stalls where i worked.
it definitely did _something_ for the ambiance.

@modgethanc i had no idea about this, but we will be getting a disk for use when our current batch of paper filters runs out.

For the holidays, you could say thank you to some of the people who write free software you use, especially software that isn't hugely popular.
Those of us who write little-known software may go for months without hearing from a user, and it can be a little de-motivating.
Hearing from someone who actually uses one's software gives an energising jolt that can carry one through several weeks of darkness and cold and wet.

@aral it's very definitely a yak, but i have gotten huge mileage out of this approach:
https://code.p1k3.com/gitea/brennen/bpb-kit/src/branch/inertia_intel_nuc/home/.sh_common#L69
...just an alias that brings up a fuzzy-finder for directory history recorded with:
https://code.p1k3.com/gitea/brennen/bpb-kit/src/branch/inertia_intel_nuc/home/.zshrc#L125
it's so useful once there's some history in it that i rarely type `cd` at all.

@kukkurovaca @earthtopus libreoffice looks like it'll do it as well.
i would have thought pandoc, but it appears that only outputs docx.

@staticsafe probably not, but if it was somewhere bookmark-able, i'd bookmark it for reference in case i need to do the same one of these days...

@staticsafe this is _extremely_ scattershot, but in one way or another i think of:
- gillian welch
- trampled by turtles
- the carolina chocolate drops / rhiannon giddens
- split lip rayfield
- elephant revival
- old crow medicine show
- devil makes 3
- truckstop honeymoon
- charlie parr
- neko case
- halden wofford & the hi beams*
- the gasoline lollipops*
- calexico (sometimes)
- jolie holland
- kacey musgraves* = local favorites, probably better live.

@pnathan uh huh. hickenlooper might make a marked improvement to the GOP norm of 10 or 15 years ago. that said, heartily as i dislike the man, he's probably far too overtly sane for the GOP of 2018.

@pnathan everyone i know in CO is expecting (and mainly dreading) a bid from gov. hickenlooper on the "business-friendly moderate" end of the scale. i'm hoping it fails early.

@Alonealastalovedalongthe really enjoyed the narrative arc of this thread.

@Alonealastalovedalongthe I would call this Brain Overfamiliarity Onset Kontrol technology. Yah I spelled control wrong but if I want any silicon valley investors I need a polished name for the tech and BOOK is a more trendy acronym than BOOC.

@00dani @annika yeah, it really seems like the advice here should be "it is your responsibility to change that setting in production".
(tho why it's still the default after all these years of egregious failure somewhat escapes me.)

@nolan the internet is doing a lot to make me view certain kinds of fragmentation and boundary as real useful things.
