Fighters of the Pacific is a clever game chronicling the rivalry between Captain Cheekbones and Lieutenant Hōbone.

We've played each of the first three scenarios twice, swapping sides for the second game. In each scenario, the same side won both games, raising questions about balance.

Bullet journal problem: what if you have daily tasks / hobbies / habits that you want to track?

Solution 1: Just write each one in the daily log every day. A bit tedious.

Solution 2: Set up tracker page. Flipping pages is a bit tedious, and you don't automatically see it when looking at your daily log.

Solution 2a: Put the tracker on a notecard, which you can use to bookmark the current daily log.

Solution 2a+: The most Mastodon possible variant.

Autumn leaves.

Wow -- the first hit in a Qwant search for paypal was a paid ad for an obviously fraudulent site. (How do I know it's bogus? For one thing, this isn't a Windows machine.)

Does anyone have an ad-free search engine the like? I'd rather pay a subscription fee than have useful results buried in ads.

#Violet prefers to snuggle with a blanket. #DogsOfMastodon

This bodes well.

Also Ubuntu: No there isn't.

How to I dismiss this notification?

Full autumn.
