    Most people prefer smoother paper but it's up to personal preference.

    If you are getting paper not necessarily made for use with fountain pens denser tends to be better but paper actually made for fountain pens tends to deal with all the weird issues with ink absorbance with coatings or the material blend of the paper. As a rule of thumb though the finer and dryer your nib and feed write the less you have to care about all that stuff with absorbance of paper.

    I get what you mean but it would make full sense to me that some people register their lungs long term being half gone from several rounds of COVID as repeated episodes of "strange completely unidentifiable respiratory diseases”.


  • The example of the slow prop planes being unable to be tracked originates from the sinking of the Bismarck.

    How I understand it wasn't radar but a more old fashioned fire control system which was unable to track the slow as balls Fairey Swordfishes on their attack runs. Explanations I have seen were that the fire control system wasn't fully working, that they just didn't hit anything because the ship was moving wildly to try and dodge torpedoes aaand that the planes were so slow they just not designed with something that ancient in mind.





  • Honestly the best thing which could come out of more destructive actions is changing the split in the non-fringe climate movement orgs from if mild civil disobedience is acceptable as a means to if more radical means are acceptable.

    My local group had an internal fight which I swear could have imploded it the first time the mildest of vandalism was suggested.
