What could this mean?

Bloom wrote a fair amount of nonsense, but he did seem to have the ability to lock in when it came to his favorite writers, one of whom was Shelley, whom he continually and insistently referred to as a "skeptic." Of what the poet was skeptical, we don't know, or at least I don't. Does anyone have a good way to understand this angle? I don't see a skeptic in Shelley, I see a swooning pindarist with a penchant for late-enlightenment idea-play, but I could be wrong.

I wasn't paying attention which antenna goes to which lead. Can I trust the diagram on the chip?

I'm on a Thinkpad E16, gen 1. Any help would be appreciated.

What exactly was Nietzsche's problem with Wagner?

I know the whole story about how they had a falling out, and Nietzsche turned on him hard, and began theorizing reasons as to why Wagner sucked, but I've never been able to figure out exactly what Nietzsche's complaint was, besides, like, the later operas were annoying.

I made a terminal-first writing suite for Linux (editor, files, PDF, RSS, podcasts, more)

I love the terminal. Use it constantly. If I can do it in terminal, I usually do, but I noticed at some point that there's not really a terminal app for everything I'm trying to get done on my machine, and if there is, it's not in my preferred style: tiny, fast, grungy, old-school.

So I started writing them myself.

What started as a text editor grew into a collection of ncurses applications for everyday use:

  • text editor
  • file manager
  • PDF reader
  • podcast client
  • RSS reader
  • radio player
  • git frontend
  • audio visualizer
  • system monitor, clock and a tiny ncurses game.

The whole thing is written in C, keyboard-driven, and intended to stay fast on modest hardware.

So yeah, here it is. I use these tools every day, and they've become my primary workflow. If anyone else finds them useful, that's a bonus. Bug reports, portability fixes, and general feedback are welcome.
