It's always something, even when doing nothing! For reasons likely unknown until holiday chaos settles, #emacs #orgroam no longer saves, kicking up

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument integer-or-marker-p nil)
org-roam-link-replace-at-point()

Messages shows:

Wrote ./daily/2023-12-24.org
org-roam-db-map-links: Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil

tried org-roam-db-sync and there are now several dozen files kicking up that error (should I clear the db first?)

Apparently within Hinduism, some consider eclipses to be pretty terrible events and take great pains to not see them. I learned this from a student, who was worried because I had given an extra credit assignment to observe the lunar eclipse and the upcoming solar eclipse.

I'm not religious myself, but I teach at a Catholic school, so I feel like if we're talking about one religion, we should talk about all of them. I"ll have to think about how to deal with this respectfully in the future...

teledyn,

@sundogplanets could they observe using a pin hole camera?

No, no. Hear me out. I have a great idea for the next Muppet movie.

I have a static site with a on a sub-path; is it possible to redirect (apache) incoming requests to the WP path? I'm guessing I can't have a user@mydomain/path as a handle.

@ai6yr have you tried Randy Newman's 12 Songs? 😅 Newman is hands down master of the creepy stalker genre.

Is it true still that just one data centre uses as much power as a town with 50,000 homes?

"This 14th century door at Exeter Cathedral, UK, is thought to be the oldest existing cat flap.
A cat was paid a penny each week, to keep down the rats and mice in the north tower, and a cat flap was cut into the door below the astronomical clock to allow the cat to carry out its duties.
Records of payments were entered in the Cathedral archives from 1305 to 1467, the penny a week being enough to buy food to supplement a heavy diet of rodents."

Why do you suppose would insert a plain empty P tag AFTER the footnote number and before the .footpara? Minor mode conflict? Bad choice of theme? Past-life crimes for which I must atone?

Just realized, sometime this year marks my 40th anniversary using , and yes, I still use C-h k, frequently, and I wish more software also believed in self-revealing interfaces.

(C-h k will explain what the next key or button pressed would have done)

    I just noticed my #Emacs doesn't have 🝶; I can use C-x 8 RET to select LUNAR ECLIPSE (there's no SOLAR??) but I get a white box that says 01F776 inside and now I wonder how many other (potentially useful) unicode chars I don't have.

    I'm mostly posting this just to see if anyone else has this character :)

    A 13 year old boy nicknamed Blue Scuti is the first human being in history to crash Tetris in this way. He is the first person ever to see Tetris's real killscreen. This game is over twice his age, and he is the first to kill it dead.

    would be a lot nicer if it obeyed the same auto-fill margin as every other emacs mode. Anyone know if there's a fix for this? I can toggle auto-fill, but this one mode insists it knows better.
