One of the niche projects I'd like to do if it wouldn't eat into my time would be to host a whole wiki source server of all the books and articles in all the Elder Scrolls games and have buttons to do easy citing of sources, and meta data on each source to indicate when it was writen, where it is found, and in what game(s).

sudo rm -rf /System/Applications/News.app

PS. Dear fediverse, no need to suggest alternatives, my daily driver is a StarLabs LabTop running @elementary and I dev cross-platform/web apps that I need to test on macOS and Windows also. Thank you.

Interesting to me how suddenly as an end to the pandemic may be on the horizon, nearly every media outlet is touting how “working from home is bad, actually” all at the same time.

What a convenient gestalt.
