Today is a good day to listen to Blind Guardian all day at work.
So I have been writing my book in #nano then lately I have switched to #Pandoc for export into #EPUB. There is a single issue I have: u00f8 doesn't translate properly with Pandoc. It throws an error and displays odd characters insteadof the one I was going for. Anyone have a remedy for me?
I hate to drag you in, but @klaatu you are one of the few people I know that uses Pandoc. You and @brandon
I just found a documentary TV show on Amazon called Real Vikings. This is fantastic! The characters from Vikings on History Channel go through with historians and archaeologists to discover the real Vikingar(yes, I believe that is the plural of Viking)

Librem One is over 92% of the way to our backer goal! WAY ahead of schedule!
If you haven't already signed up, now might be a good time to at least grab a free account (chat & social media) so you have your user name reserved. ;)
What are your favorite fonts that don't come with your distro?
Bonus Question:
Do you have a favorite monospace font?
@klaatu Hey look at this! Dang, Enlightenment is really slick. I might stick with it for a while, but I have noticed a performance drag. We'll see. Thank you for the recommendation from 4 years ago... hehehe
Yay! Now I have a favicon!
Oh hey! I updated my CSS... didn't realize that #BashBlog created 2 css files. That is where my problem with the css came in. Now it is fixed! Yay! Time to experiment and break everything!!!!

Okay, so this is a little off the cuff, but I got my thoughts out on my blog.

I didn't proofread it, so forgive any errors in spelling or grammar. This is pure stream of consciousness.
I am 30 years old.
I went to a University.
I am going to write about University and my thoughts today. Check back for a blog post before too long.
Cheers!

What if your Social Media, Email, & Chat were run by a company that...
- Doesn't sell ads
- Doesn't sell data
- Doesn't look at your junk
It exists. Right now.

Librem 5 App Design Tutorial – Part II
@klaatu I was listening to an episode from Season 8 and you made a big deal out of Enlightenment Desktop. Do you still really like it? I was thinking about trying it out.

I see some people pressuring tech companies to build a machine that blocks entire groups from Internet Society. They must be bigger optimists than I am, all I can think of is how such a machine will be abused.

Coffee Corner! This is a little set up I made to take advantage of some extra counter space. Got my bean bucket, my grinder, and my aero press coffee maker. It's a pretty nice set up 👌
Interesting episode about Snaps with @popey being interviewed. Found it via #hackerpublicradio #hpr

So, #Slackware is really pushing me towards a #Qt centric environment. Every time I look for deps for a GTK app, it have to compile them by hand and GNOME doesn't really document deps for the deps and all that, so I'm thinking about switching my laptop over to LXQt and my Desktop over to KDE.
