The sigils were drawn in salt, the candles lit, the blade wetted with, well, if not blood then at least hamburger jus.
A demon appeared at the other end of the table.
"Wherefore hast thou summoned me?"
"Dinner company. Have a seat."
The demon sat. "What?"
"Lockdown. It's lonely."

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as the new year, is in fact, GNU/Year, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Year. A year is not a unit of time unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU timekeeping system made useful by the GNU months, weeks and vital days comprising a full calendar as defined by POSIX.
Does anyone have a decent recommendation for contacts app on Android? I can't seem to get the default app not to include info from my Google account. I still want to use se other Google services so I don't want to remove the account completely. I'm using DAVx5 to sync contacts with my Synology.

Is there any directions on generating a pgp key with something like the OpenKeychain Android app?

I wanted to start a "back to basic" series for org-mode and Emacs.
The idea is to make people more aware of what org-mode has "out of the box" without rushing to use various packages and code bits: the productivity philosophy behind the "why", not just the "how."
I ended up repeating a few things I've said before, so if you find that you're interested in more details about something, look under the "orgmode" tag.
Hope you enjoy it!

Does anyone use Matrix bridges?
I'm a bit confused by them. Do you have to run your own homeserver? If I want to run my own custom bridge do I need to run it on my own homeserver so I can integrate it and enable it?
For things like the matrix slack bridge are credentials stored on the matrix servers then?

i've unearthed the US patent for the standard Symbolics 3600 LISP Machine
it's here: http://bitsavers.org/pdf/symbolics/patents/4887235_3600_patent.pdf
it contains the full hardware description and, ironically, spends most of the time documenting the LISP Machine kernel, as if the hardware is seemingly not the most tremendous discovery, which gives me goose bumps...
anyway, some important things to note:
>garbage collection implemented in hardware
>type checking implemented in hardware
>kernel traps implemented in hardware (i think x86 does this as well, i forget)
