alright, so I've encountered a bewildering number of folks - in many different contexts - who suggest they use OneNote, but as of this moment, I am *done* believing you.

you have to show me.

I know computer-generated nonsense is everywhere these days and it's understandable that the sudden bullshit-flood is a bit scary.

But before assuming that this technological grift is somehow going to jeopardize the preservation and continuation of human knowledge, take a deep breath, and remember: humans accumulated and passed on a lot of knowledge for 100,000 years before computers even got invented.

If you're worried about how we might cope, I highly recommend spending some time getting familiar with how thousands of Indigenous cultures from across the planet and across history pass along what they learn and know.

The contemporary, common, "western" (aka white) notion of how to learn and teach - especially across generations - is as unusual (historically speaking) as it is limited and flawed.

SR22 is *not* the ICAO code for the ultra scary recon plane, unfortunately.

oh dear... well, after updating to iPadOS 18.1 Beta 3(?), none of my Safari Extensions seem to be responding to their keyboard shortcuts. worth a feedback?

@evan I answered 6 to 15, old addresses, old habits. Technically my answer is practically infinite as I have a catchall domain name that'll accept email sent to any address at that domain which I use when signing up for things that aren't important, or are likely to sell my email address, or both.

@evan I used to have like 25+ 🤣 I now have 2 email addresses, but I need one more because of spam filtering is too tight at iCloud sometimes.

@evan since i do e-mail aliasing, and have been for the past 4 years, it means one email per account created since then. that's dozens, if not 3 digits by now.
