I’ve considered giving it a watch as I would have been around 8 that night, and I can imagine I was a bit young, especially if it was after my bedtime and following the high of Megaforce.

I remember a drive-in screening of Clint Eastwood’s Firefox and Megaforce. Megaforce seems to have found a cult audience in 2023, and I don’t know if I’ve ever heard Firefox mentioned.

I’ve avoided both as even though I have positive feels of that particular night, I doubt the films were good.

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking, and you are right that automation wouldn’t be hard… although if I’m setting up that automation I’ll fail to commit to the deletion and just move the files to an archive folder. 😳

I only adopted Obsidian recently and only because I liked the idea of the data being stored as plain text files. I really haven’t adopted any system, just replaced Apple Notes.

Maybe not something you intended, but your phrasing has me curious if Obsidian has some sort of temporary note? I can imagine some use cases.

I read OP’s comment as indicating they wanted tech to move to alternative layouts from QWERTY, and the argument is always improved wpm.

I type slow as hell, I don’t have a dog in the fight.

It’s inefficient, there are many alternate layouts that are “better”. I feel like AI is going to give us auto-fill that makes the keyboard efficiency less important though.

True, but just look at how much better it has gotten in the last couple decades. Putting the news behind the paywall runs the risk of ending the battle for impressions and might force nuance into well researched stories.

At the current rate it’s not cost effective to fly the helicopter between the yacht and the mainland more than twice daily. This is only the first step, but the goal is non-stop service by 2027.
