For the price of a 12 pack of condoms I can get 300 water balloons.

Why are we focused in water balloons when condoms exist? Are they too resilient?
Water balloons are designed to be broken on impact. Condoms are engineered to be resistant to breaking.
I’d prefer the water balloon.
Definitely freeplane is the winner here - solid piece of software
Thanks!
Requires sufficient pressure. It is easier with warm liquid though.
Leaving it out in the cold overnight can freeze the balloon, but take care to check how thin the walls of the frozen balloon are. The goal, IMO, would be to freeze it enough to use a launcher, but not enough to be frozen solid.
This provides a secondary benefit of unexpected shards of piss distributed at impact.
Please note that current testing has been with standard balloons, in -5F to 15F, in the shade, with only water. Methods may be improved with water balloons - a bit smaller, with thinner latex to ensure it breaks, but more flexible, and designed to handle being filled with liquid.
Field testing is highly recommended.

Yeah, I generally don’t run software that isn’t under an open source license if it can be avoided though

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What's the laziest way to create a website that looks really nice and is maintainable?English
181·4 days agoYou dont say what kind of website it is, just not blog or documentation style.
But SSGs can be skinned a bunch if different ways, and have been set up for a bunch of different purposes.

I have been using Zola for myself lately, its less blog post and more article oriented, but still doc heavy. I like the duckquill theme (with… More than a few changes, but still), which I doubt fits what you want. For comparison, here is duckquill: https://duckquill.daudix.one/
But you may like the Portio theme: https://quentin-rodriguez.github.io/portio-zola/
If you don’t need to update often though, I think some basic html could be the way to go rather than using an ssg.
Thanks!
High res version if others want it:

Aaaand once again if anyone spies higher res version, i would love to get to see it!
Now that looks like a serious contender! Thanks for the link
Kind of the other way around there, starting with markdown to make a mindmap. Not that I haven’t used mermaid (though I’ll be candid, I mostly hate how mermaid renderers work and the layouts can get real funky real quick), but I’m more going the other way around. Start dropping stuff into a map, then sort it out after. For concepting things out, I like a GUI better. For documenting something existing, mermaid is a perfect decent option.
No conversion to tex, but markdown export is decent (and can then go to pandoc), not a bad option - thanks for sharing

Linux@lemmy.ml•To new users of Linux, how does it feel to have to enter your password 1000x more often than Windows or macOS?English
52·7 days agoI think you might be confused about using linux. At no point do I enter it more often than on my work laptop (windows, constant) or my build target Mac mini.
Edit: Not new, but still. This isnt something ive set up special.

Might even sell my FW, I don’t think I want to be associated with the brand at all.
