My friend in Louisiana is certain they are going to lose power. It never snows there.
All comments on this thread failed to suggest a decent note-taking app that isn't super convoluted.
I used Telegram as a way to quick jot notes for future use, reminders and whatnot, but I am trying to move out of that, so I started using https://simplenote.com/, but what a weird app. It logs me out if I don't use it for like 2 days, I don't like the fact that it has these titles because I don't need titles, I just need a place to paste content, and also it's not chronological like Telegram messages but also I can't reorder the notes as I wish, they are shown by most recent updated first, which is weird.
Anyway, all of that was ok if it wasn't for the weird syncing issues that started to happen recently: it takes sometimes hours for updates made in one device to be synced to other devices, I don't know, it looks like their server is broken or something.
I don't know why I'm writing this note anymore, but I think we could easily have a note-taking app with private notes writing to private relays on Nostr.
Why not just email yourself? I email ${YOURHANDLE}+notes@gmail.com. I have occasionally used other apps over the years. Needless to say the only notes that are still preserved are those that were in my email.
That is a more humane temperature! I like the cold; as long as it is cold, it means no colder than 0. However -20C is awful. I remember I stepped out in -20C once (not enough warm clothes), and it felt like someone had punched me in the gut.
People from the tropics should not live in Chicago. I feel sorry for my family living there.
Does it affect performance?
Hoping for a better 2025 for everyone. Everyone in the world deserves to live with dignity and in health.
I am planning to post to fediverse via Nostr or BlueSky once the hosting is simpler.
Fediverse hosting is very expensive at the moment for a single user.

Threads, with its aversion to news, will become the place to hang out to avoid all Trump and Musk news for the next four years.
If Arc is going away, do I have to look for a new browser?
Would it be Orion? Currently, it is too buggy and unpolished for use. Do you use it? What is your experience with it?
Arc Search is dying, isn’t it? I never used to get this error but it frequently refuses to “Browse For Me” https://nostrcheck.me/media/22d0f9babb69a3042f3b830c037ac4d81bfbb3b96ad490bc912c8fdc35fe7d6f/85ca5c6015d9f5e7661a1cfaaa93aedf71a53ef247fc9a65820732c39c0c1bdd.webp
Are NS trains going from Netherlands to London now? Is this the end of the EuroStar monopoly?
Why do people who want to socialise on Threads and X complain about it? Don’t they understand that they can’t change these platforms? They have to accept the offerings as they are.
Threads and X are clearly Democrat and Republican, respectively. Other viewpoints are not represented at all.
Twitter has not been replaced by either. Twitter is lost.
I have started to get annoyed that people wouldn't even switch away to safer, open, free options when they are as good as the one that makes a mega corp / ultra rich have even greater control over your life

Indians are living less thanks to air pollution. I hope the political parties with a vote base in these dark regions will be moved to keep their votes alive.
I have been recommending apps and services to my significant other for years. The only one she has stuck with and loves is Arc Search app on her phone.
