Like everyone else, I get distracted and forget to do this. Then I look out at my car while standing at the register. Naturally, the numbers are not visible from this location…

How old is the oldest building in the town you live in?

To those from the Western hemisphere, it’s always fascinating to hear that some homes and businesses from the times of the Greek philosophers still have inhabitants, and then you remember that the Western hemisphere is itself not without its own examples, for example some Mexican villages still have temples from the times of...

We have 1168. Big splurge on ecclesiastical building in the 1100s.

It’s a past participle.

e.g. “The park or meadow having been newly mown, had an air at once ornamented and natural.”

“An 82-year-old great-grandad survived being mown down by a car”

I remember reading a melodrama from the 1800s where the protagonist, a failed writer, makes a deal with the devil to have a bestselling book. In the second half he becomes wildly successful, but is tortured by the knowledge that he is genuinely mediocre. It always stuck with me. Reminds me of people buying Likes.

Just to avoid confusion, it’s called Coherence. That’s why none of your friends watched it! LOL

Edit: he said Cohesion.

Google golden passport. Portugal and Spain were at it but I think many countries have shut down the programme.

I think I found a Greasemonkey script to do it? Works on my browser anyway.

I presumed he meant Apple because of the logo. But maybe I am very old…

Lynx at the San Francisco public library! And Gopher was around before WWW.

I’ve heard some AI experts on Hard Fork suggest 80% of the Internet will be AI bot trash in 2 years.

He looked beneath his shirt today

There was a wound in his flesh so deep and wide

From the wound a lovely flower grew

From somewhere deep inside

He turned around to face his mother

To show her the wound in his breast that burned like a brand

But the sword that cut him open

Was the sword in his mother’s hand

The Lazarus Heart - Sting

I buy and sell used books. I came across one nondescript worn hardback in a box and for some reason decided to research it. It’s worth five figures. Cost about 25c.

Moderate condition, ex-library so there are stamps and labels. However it’s about 120 years old and a first edition. There was one for sale last year, now there are none for sale anywhere in the world, AFAIK. It was the first book of its genre and is recognised as influencing the later masters. Think Poe influencing Conan Doyle. I’m reluctant to mention the details because I don’t want it showing up in a search. Sorry to be so cagey! I’d be annoyed by this post myself if I read it.

It’s a terribly written article. It appears to be a transcript of a news segment. It’s almost impossible to follow what the ‘scam’ is or why Instagram is involved.

Spark for Android. EMclient for desktop. Both have combined inboxes.

Not specifically for guitar but MusicSheets is the best app to collect songs into collections and setlists for performance.

I’ve been on a Penny & Giles for over 10 years. Couldn’t compute without it.

Emotionally mature adults shouldn’t have to shout at anyone in daily life. It’s not repressed rage if you have an even temperament.

I do know several volatile people who consider it normal to ‘blow off steam’ by having a raging argument every now and then. It may be helpful to them but it’s childish and unfair to those around them.

Lemmy_2019 ,

You can split hairs, but I certainly don’t ‘feel safer’ around people who raise their voice to me. It’s intemperate, threatening and often bullying. But I can see we won’t agree.

Interesting. What’s the total price per sheet on decent paper? I do a few hundred A3 prints a week.

Lemmy_2019 ,

Thanks for doing the math. I have a deal with a commercial printer for slightly less, so it appears I won’t be changing. Rather not have the hassle either, in fairness.

Totally ignoring ‘non-Western’ like most people here, but it’s all I know.

You could look into the Pre-Christian mythology of Ireland. The Túatha Dé Danann, Fomorians, the Fianna (including Fionn mac Cumhaill), and Cú Chulainn.

There are countless books available, including by WB Yeats, but the most ubiquitous is likely Early Irish Myths and Sagas from Penguin Classics.
