As a grudgingly picky eater, I agree with you

If I had the money to spare, I’d get a BOOX Palma because its size and features would really suit my needs, though I know it’s not for everyone. It also has the ability run any bookstore or ereader app on it, or really just any app in general.

It doesn’t really work for me. I don’t use (or know how to use some of) the services that it requires

I’m gonna try this one out, though it seems complicated

I don’t use Firefox exclusively

Yeah I guess I could use KeePass for this, but it seems like it might be tedious.

My reasons for asking: I don’t want to pay for a service, I don’t want to rely a service that could shutdown (I used to use del.icio.us once upon a time), and I do want something that syncs

I’m currently using Shaarli on a cheap host, but they’re about to raise their prices drastically. Also, I’m not very tech savvy so I haven’t been able to update is since I started using it, so I kind of don’t want to deal with it anymore away.

I just checked out Floccus but I’m not sure it’ll work for me because it requires a server or additional service.

I think it was due to a minor Mad Cow disease outbreak. We were also ineligible to donate blood until about a couple years ago

I think I’m ineligible. I think my sibling tried to register but was they were told they were ineligible because we lived in Europe in the 80’s

Thank you for sharing this 🙏

I’ve been using Noice too, but I’m totally switching to this

Princess Mononoke, Nausicaa, and maybe Ponyo

I guess I would say the paradox of tolerance. I’m sorry but I’m just gonna yoink the definition from Wikipedia because I’m not great at explaining things:

The paradox of tolerance states that if a society’s practice of tolerance is inclusive of the intolerant, intolerance will ultimately dominate, eliminating the tolerant and the practice of tolerance with them. Karl Popper describes the paradox as arising from the fact that, in order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must retain the right to be intolerant of intolerance.

Bonus least favorite paradox: You need experience to get a job and you need a job to get experience.

For me, it was The One I Love by R.E.M. from when I was about four or five.

Besides being a banger of a song, I think part of the appeal to my younger self was how easy the lyrics were to understand and memorize, which I still have memorized. They were my first favorite band too.

Listening to Paradise Lost by John Milton and No Gods for Drowning by Hailey Piper. Though, I’ll probably be working on Paradise Lost for a while because I have to be in the right mind set for it; it’s hard to multitask listening to that one 😅

I’m not sure if this one counts, but I’m a fan of Rogule

Rogule is a minimalist online Roguelike game you play in your web browser. Everyone gets the same dungeon each day. You get one chance to beat each day’s dungeon. It is free to play.

I need absolute quiet to read and it’s taxing for me to read for long periods of time. However, I’m more an audio person, so I mostly listen to books, and if given the opportunity, I could listen to books all day.

I really like Slewfoot, now I want to reread it
