I see Coolblue trucks passing by a lot lately. I guess they're doing great business. Wonder which part of them is the most profitable right now. Maybe the solar panels division?

@fraggle@octodon.social I had to look up why that was so clever. Apparently tcl is pronounced 'tickle'. Would never have guessed it myself. ;)

@VD15 That's quite a weird concept of 'dual monitor'.

@lucifargundam I'm just wondering about your last paragraph. It sounds like you were a bit uneasy or something? It looks so formal and distant? Why would I have qualms with your shared musings? I grew from the outcome, I learned that ludiek comes from ludus, that was cool.

@bonifartius And even if it doesn't help, at least they make me think it helps. Placebo effects can be strong! ;)

@lucifargundam That was easy. :P

ludiek [speels] {1926-1950} < frans ludique, een moderne vorming van latijn ludus [spel, scherts] (middeleeuws latijn ludificus [speels, feestelijk]).

@lucifargundam I'm idly wondering if our word 'ludiek' comes from there. A 'ludieke actie' is some sort of action/event where something funny/outrageous/spontaneous is done. A flash mob event could be a ludieke actie. Mm, I should check up the etymology of that word.

@robflop Ayup. And you feel too drowsy (because of the bad night's sleep usually) to do anything fun at home. :(

@robflop I deal with it 2-3 times a year at least, alas. :( Me and The Cold... we got some history going.

@deesapoetra For the observer it might look hilarious. I had cotton discs shoved up my nostrils yesterday. :P I hope I won't need to do that again today!

@bonifartius Igh, the thought of that alone makes me sick. I now feel double sick! ;)

Fried dried onions, though, I can handle. I was thinking of doing a ramen noodles mix today if my eggs are still good. With some garlic and onions added. And either brussel sprouts or broccoli. Mmmmmm. Oh, and completely using up the spicy sachet. If my head and ears hurts, I want my throat to know it too! :P

I truly hate being sick. Full sinuses, full nose, chunky snots, ears and throat hurty. Yeah, I'm not really enjoying today here. :P

@256 I remember a few of those. Man, they're all pretty terrible in hindsight. ;)

@samurro I've rechecked, and I think I worded a few things wrong due to me mixing up a few bits.

Joplin does have E2E but isn't default enabled. Good feature, though, if you need it.
Joplin stores its files in a database, not in seperate .md files. In case the DB is corrupt, or the system's wonky so that you can't use software anymore, you'll have trouble getting to your data.
You can export them to .md files (among many other options) at least, which is what I did to move over to Obsidian.

Obsidian is not open source, but they don't use proprietary formats either. Your files are all free .md files, and you can easily move on to another markdown software if you ever feel the need to. You can use external tools to automate stuff with your files, because they're all easily accessible. You can use any text editor to read your data if you wish to.

I decided for myself that I liked the flexibility of being able to access the .md files any time. Hope that cleared up a few things. :)
