I'm curious: did you try eating in the mornings and fasting in the evenings? Maybe that would be easier for you.

While true now, remember that companies used to own armies[1] and territories[2]. Their motives -- shareholder profit -- have not changed. They do and will strive to grow their power. It's not a stretch from today to imagine living on

Correct, it won't show if you change your password. For legitimate uses, you export your session keys prior to changing your password. In Riot (the most prominent Matrix client), you need to log out to change your password. In the curr

In my experience, converting to LaTex is hard, but writing in LaTex from the start is trivial. That's how I write my novels, and I don't need more than the occasional \emph{}, \ldots and \chapter{}, and remembering to use `` when
