  • The atmosphere really sounds amazing. I’ve never been to Ireland, but if get the opertinity it would be cool to walk through the city on Bloomsday.

    I read Ulysses once and not even scratched the surface, but the geography sounds like a interesting topic to dive into. A companion book could be useful, but I guess it would also take a lot more time to get through the read.

    If the quotation marks are a stylistic choice than so be it. Makes it harder to read though. The last chapter is missing any kind of punctuation as far as I know, so that has to be a wild ride






  • Duckduckgo. I stpped using google for the privacy stuff but I stayed because of the language switch.

    I don’t know if I tweaked a setting to achieve it, but I have a language switch below the search bar. Google always showed me german results when searching for something english and the other wy around, so I love this feature. Search results are good enough for me, so duckduckgo it is.



  • Yeah, you’re right. Most people probably lack practice and that is why their handwriting isn’t clean. I’m still very happy I don’t have to write official documents by hand.

    Interestingly enough, everybody at university nowadays takes notes with their tablet, so kind of returning to handwriting. Why? Laptops are great for texts and all, but ever tried to write down math or draw a quick graph while your professor’s hand is moving at the speed of light? The freedom of sketching whatever Greek letter your lecturer is making up is not replaceable by a keyboard. I don’t care whether on paper or touchscreen, but I don’t think we should or could abandon handwriting.
