So THAT's what that font is called! I love this typeface and always wondered about its name. What a treat to learn so much about its history!

Hah you're a Nick in Watertown too?

I'm in Watertown on a busy road and was near an open window when it exploded. I thought a truck had slammed into my building and was baffled when I saw everything was fine.

The numbering of the challenges (eg T1001) is a little confusing to me too. My assumption is that the first number after the T is a tactic ID and the remaining digits are the challenge/issue ID. Maybe the challenge/issue ID is 3 digits because there's room (a plan?) to add many more examples?

I like the substance of this conceptual model as well (and may actually use some of it in my own personal productivity framework :-)), but don't see why it needs to be presented this way. It's neat, but I'd personally rather all the content be on one page, and maybe with a search feature for if/when the list of example challenges/issues grows.

This is what I'm currently doing sans tailscale. I'm running Ubooquity on a server in my homelab as my OPDS service to serve the ebooks hosted on a mounted NAS. I can download any of those books from my Kobo with a few presses on Koreader. It's pretty great. My Kobo Forma is probably one of my best and most used tech purchases. I've had it since 2019 and couldn't be happier with the device + setup. Getting it set up with tailscale so I can fetch ebooks when I'm away from home sounds like a pretty good upgrade.

Ah, a fellow indoorsman. :)

It's very nice and worth the $75 IMO. The new font builder they have gives you a lot of options to tweak/customize the typeface, which is also very nice.

Glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. WinZip is a slow and bloated abomination, especially compared to 7-Zip. The right-click menu context entry for 7-Zip is very convenient and runs lightning fast. WinZip can't compete at all.

I think the title is just the name of the newest release of 9front (an active fork of plan9), similar to how Bookworm is the name for Debian release 12.

Oh no, that poor soul...

I just read your comment after posting mine and it sounds like you've had a similar (but unfortunately opposite!) experience. The vivid dreams stop for me a few weeks after they start. Are your vivid dreams "permanent", or has it only been a short while since you started experiencing them?

Indeed, and IME, the dreams I have after taking a break from daily THC use are extremely vivid - to the point that I can remember them in detail for days afterwards. I enjoy that a lot.

About 30 minutes ago, it has been my Gmail notification sound for a few years :)
