• On the plus side, it turns out silverbullet does have journaling facilities by installing the Journal library: https://silverbullet.md/Library/Journal

• On the negative side, it defaults to a weird Journal/Day prefix :)
  • I get what they're going after as apparently they want to support /Week as well, and weekly journals make sense to me.
  • But I prefer a flatter structure than that -- looking into customizing.
• Again it took me until 7pm to get into a situation I could call focus, let alone flow; earlier I did useful things that needed to take place (like cleaning around the house and such), but that produced only diffuse output.
• doom:
  • On impulse I bought and installed doom 2016 today (it was on sale). I played half an hour and I'm not sure I'm into it. I played and loved doom and doom 2 as a kid, but this is a newer game and I'm an older person :)
    • The graphics are good and I wanted to try out the 'shoot at things without much of a plot' experience again, and I got that.
    • But I don't like you can't save/quicksave. It's all checkpoint based (whyyy).
    • And I didn't have as much 'fun' with it. Maybe it's too violent to maintain my interest nowadays.
    • But I may yet come back to it.
• Moloch:
  • By Kuprin:
    • Makes direct references to the stock market, which surprised me -- it was a factor in Russian society earlier than expected (this is from 1896.)
    • page 72 in my edition has the first direct reference to Moloch by name.
