I too am quite surprised so few people seem to have been reading that book. I'm not even American but I've read it.

So much of what has been happening recently is explained in it.

A, this is why magic isn’t real

I don't think the question is about magic vs reality, we're talking vampires here, right?, but to know how if vampires were a thing, it would be possible (or not) for a vampire cop to enter a house without being invited by the home owner, even with a warrant.

B, the law can say whatever the fuck it wants it still can’t bend reality.

The law doesn't need to bend any reality, it never does. Law is not about scientific laws, it's about human behavior. At least modern laws as some older ones may have tried, and maybe some particularly stupid modern ones too, but their ability to bend said reality to their will is still to be demonstrated :p

The law is a contract, with a sanction of some sort when it is broken. Be it to pay a fine, or to be prevented to do certain activities in the future, or be forced to do some other ones, or to go to jail. Up to the death penalty, in some places.

The law is about making the citizens bent to its will, not the reality.

That will is, in theory at least, is the expression of the common will, also known as the agreed upon desire of all the citizens. Citizens don't define laws of physics (which would deal with 'reality') and no matter how hard they may want, the also can't alter them.

Speed limit is not about enforcing a certain speed over which the laws of physics would suddenly (and magically) crumble. It’s about punishing people not respecting that agreed upon speed limit. That’s also why it’s very possible to have different speed limits in different places. Physics doesn't change, our expectations do.

We will drive faster on a highway than, say, next to a school despite the car being the same, with the same driver and with the same laws of physics applying, why? The place is different and also how we are expected to behave in such a place which, near a school, should obviously be to slow down so we the drivers (aka old/adults enough to have our driving license and act responsibly) can compensate for kids being… kids, aka not always being attentive to what’s going on around them, or being silly.

A warrant, for example has nothing to do with giving its carrier some magical power to enter a place (say by moving through a closed door or through walls, or by teleporting there) but it has all to do with punishing the owner of the place for not letting the warrant carrier enter their house, even if they don’t want to.

So, all I was saying is that in that ‘fantasy’ world where vampire cops would be a thing, the law may as well be written so it makes it a ‘mandatory welcoming' for the home owner to let in the vampire-cop, any refusal to comply to said 'forced invitation to enter' being sanctioned by a more or less severe punishment… Which, btw, is not far from what a warrant is supposed to be doing in our (this time, real) world ;)

I meant: the warrant would equal an invitation to enter one's home, an invitation decided by the judge to which, as a law abiding citizen, the place owner would be forced to comply with.

But couldn't the law be written so that a warrant once seen by the home owner must legally be considered a mandatory invitation, making the cop legally allowed to enter the home?

Being bored is not a bad thing. If by being bored you mean 'not doing something' and not being 'busy' because then it means one can start thinking by oneself. Something that seems to be severely lacking in our so modern and so constantly busy societies.

If you want to know what are my usual activities, beside welcoming boredom, I would say: read, write, paint, go out for a walk (that's amazing too, for the body as well as the mind), spend time with my spouse, making stuff with my hands.

But it has kings and queens and knights, armies of pawns and thick towers to defend them during merciless battles. It also has bishops, but I much prefer the French name: les fous aka the crazy ones ;)

It's a beautifully deep game, and it's refreshing to be able to pour time into something with staying power that people of every age play all over the world.

So much this :)

Would chess count?

I mean chess is not not popular by any stretch of the mind, a lot of people around the world are playing it every single day and that won't go away anytime soon, but I'm always surprised to see so much more excitement going on around a new version of This or That video game that people will play for a little while before switching to a newer version than for chess. Despite its apparent simplicity (and lack of visual effects), chess has remained a challenge for the smartest among us, and will keep on being so no matter how much better computers can be playing it.

Neither Tuta or Proton will neatly integrate with Apple Mail if you want to send/receive encrypted messages. At least the last I checked it required for Proton a separate client that was not bug free (can't remember for tuta).

If you don't care about encryption, you may want to consider the Swiss Infomaniak.

They have a cloud offer which includes cloud storage (1to base), calendar and email, plus the online version of MSOffice, all being hosted on their Swiss servers.

I may have missed something, here so to make sure:

1. Do you want a wiki specifically, or are you looking for a tool that would allow you to easily create and manage some worldbuilding bible, be it a wiki or not a wiki?
2. Isn't LibreOffice able to export to MediaWiki (Wikipedia)? I have not checked, and never used it, but I think it's there somewhere.

the best thing it can do is just make a document look good,

It can also help you write the actual book, worrying about the document 'look' aka its formatting is optional (and if done properly, using Styles, it's almost 100% automated) ;)
