But I guess the guy knew there were German words that he didn't know the English translation for, ("train part" - sorry buddy, that's two separate words in English. And "debark" and "embark")

...so he asked for help.

Like, I don't know how anything that's so complex you need to understand it precisely wouldn't be better just ... speaking German directly? I don't speak Dutch; it sounds like slightly silly German to my ears.

I liked it. While it didn't wow me like it seems to be hitting for others, I thought it was really cleanly told. It went about as deep as it could go for a story with that many characters and an album worth of songs in an hour and a half movie.

The one I want to see is normalizing of masking at large indoor venues, trade shows, conventions, etc..

People travel there from states away, to be in a room with thousands of other people? Yeah. That's a super-spreader event.

Yet 98% of the folks I see at conventions & trade shows don't mask.

Oof. Sorry. Didn't mean to force you to take time explaining.
But I guess that's what I ended up doing.
'pologies.

Block limit on the free plan should only be applied to shared content. Un-shared stuff should be unlimited.

And when I've paid to put an assistant on my wiki, it was only 8$/seat.

So ... I guess you've got a team of 3 you need to share with?

It's great because if I DO end up dropping into infodump mode, I can go pages deep, easily drop in pics, spreadsheets, whatever.

So I can leave a to-do there, and get back to what I need to be doing, 'cause it'll be there when it's time. Or when the urge strikes, it's also my hyperfocus buddy.

?!?
Notion is like, the main tool I use, day after day. Speaking as a fellow neurodivergent, the ease with which I can just ... unshelve my thoughts there, and know that it'll keep them semi-tidy until I'm ready to come back to that ... it's one of the main things that lets me regulate my focus.

That's how you first entered my feeds.

BSky doesn't bury your posts. Posting the same thing more than once just spams the feeds of your followers. This isn't facebook.

Please don't do this. I don't want to have to unfollow NPR.
