Pausing Stirling February for a Streamline Stank shave with u/EldrormR. Great shave with the beautiful and hefty Streamline.

This is just for testing. Posted (if successful) from lem.el. Otherwise, You will never know.

I'm kinda low-key working on an activitypub-based federated den manager and sotd editor which should solve the wsdb update issue. If you become a lem.el expert in the meanwhile, we can maybe adapt it together into a client for that later 😇

Not sure I will want to - maybe it's ok for posting, but for reading, this is rather painful for the moment 😔

Emacs is a great editor, and a so so reader. "Just for posting" would already be good IMO

It might be better to try with eww - another thing to explore!

One of my favourites, too

As a German living in Switzerland speaking English, how do you decide how to spell favorite/favourite and color/colour, etc?

[-] djundjila@wetshaving.social 3 points 6 months ago

@walden
We all start out learning the English spelling at school (like most Europeans). Some switch to American later in life, others stick with centre, colour, neighbour like me.

It's not like one makes more sense than the other. English has the silliest relationship with vowels and the alphabet of any language I've learned 😄
