Exactly!

Lots of AMD boards do, actually.

Nah, the RAM will be ECC, but AMD motherboards often will take that. SSDs will be m2 or SAS, you may have to find yourself a PCIE card to hook up those, but it shouldn’t be impossible.

I wonder what kind of squid they found, and where. Wish the article would mention it.

No, it’s not smart, that’s the point! ;)

That’s a totally valid approach, and hey, if you want to move back (or across) ti whatever tool after all, they all support ingesting or using markdown, anyway, so no loss.

Search, ordering, crosslinking, embedding or at least adding additional formats, easily sharing notes if you have the server going, web clipper, and so on.

It’s correct though, isn’t it? And sure, it’s free and open, and it allows you to do things that are hard/slow/impossible with just a bunch of markdown files, but it is an extra layer, and one that’s more difficult than just opening a plaintext file.

AFAIK, the Joplin lead dev is using slop machines as well, or anyway endorses it. It’s what drove me away.

I’ve been a Joplin user for years, looked at Trilium once or twice, but the complexity and (iirc) database-backed storage kinda kept me away. The latter also always slightly irked me about Joplin, but at least you can export the whole notebook to markdown.

Which I did, when Joplin declared slop contributions OK (and a bunch of plugins were also on the slop teat, and you kind of need plugins). Then I started up SilverBullet and I haven’t looked back.

In terms of “I want an alternative for Obsidian” I think it might actually come closest.

…and the price will go up, anyway.

A mild nausea, usually.

“Do we have a spare? We don’t? Tch, unfortunate.”

Plus zero LLM slop everywhere.

But if they make the sd card slot smaller, you won’t be able to fit an ad card in there, duh.

I have this one, too! Well, actually, I have two of them, as I also wanted one on my desk at work.

I have the shrimp in an office chair, too. Twice.

…that we know of.

If “mandatory overtime” is needed outside the realm of multiple catastrophic surprise events on a company-ending scale, your “project manager” is absolute shit.

Slop and spam in one project, that’s going to go over well in these parts…
