It's Arch with a few tweaks. For something very similar, try CachyOS.
I started with a single file that had bullet points for each story beat, then those grew into chapters. I then had files/notes for specific things that I needed to remember but didn't want in the novel itself (character backstories, etc). After a while I found the single file overwhelming so I split it into one file per chapter, that way it was easier to focus on one at a time; when I felt they were all in decent shape I put them back together in one file. I use headings for each chapter title so that I can jump to each one in the table of contents. I'm now doing a final pass for tone and for minor fixes; when something needs attention I highlight it so that I can find it later.
I tried a LOT of different apps but Obsidian was for me the best combination of being very responsive, not too distracting, easy to navigate, and not locking me into a proprietary format.
I also love iA writer but it doesn't work on Linux, or with Wine...
I'm writing a novel in Obsidian and it works great. Currently closing on 70k words and it's just as fast as a file with 50 words in it. I also like that it's a simple markdown file which I can easily back up anywhere and open with anything. It can also organize multiple files and link to them if needed, which is nice when starting out if you use the snowflake method.
Perhaps the reason the genocide is tolerated is that the West, unlike in earlier eras, is in structural decline and it needs to hang on to it’s strategic assets at all costs.
I agree that this is probably a factor. Everything is on shaky ground. If the US weren't run by a lunatic we might see a more coordinated condemnation of Israel, but I suspect the war in Ukraine is a major factor here, and China's ticking deadline to make an attempt on Taiwan.
FWIW I use Fastmail and it works great.
Oh good one but that's a trick question, because nobody has actually read it in full.
What?? The only books that exist are:
- Harry Potter
- 1984
- AO3 fanfics
At least Luckey went with the name of the good guy's sword rather than the bad guy's surveillance device, like Peter Thiel.
77 million Americans voted for the monster. This is far from over even with him gone.
and it recalls the “Dark Ages” that followed the fall of the Roman Empire
This is unfair to the Romans. They struggled through multiple economic and migratory/military crises to keep their state alive and saved it from destruction several times before entropy finally took its course. Even after Rome "fell", people maintained the appearance of continuity. What they did not do at any time is deliberately take a hammer to everything. Trump is much more like Pol Pot than Odoacer.
Then pardons should at minimum be the purview of the Senate or House, instead of a single person.
It's true. Camera apps for example are much, much worse than the OEM version.
