  • Apparently there are more than 400,000 variations in the Greek manuscripts that are the basis for the New Testament. Which means there are more variations then there are words in the New Testament itself.

  • Good. Was frustrating to have Firefox finely tuned w/ extensions and whatnot to eliminate invasive ads, but their front page "news aggregator" ignored all of those rules and served up only ad-infested trash

  • Head to: https://archive.ph/

    Copy the URL of the paywalled article into the "I want to search the archive for saved snapshots" textbox! [blue, bottom box]

    Can also archive an article for others to use if you copy a non-paywalled article into the "My url is alive and I want to archive its content" textbox. [red, top box]

    -- Editing to add -- can also just append "archive.is/" to the beginning of the URL and it will take you to the list of non-parywalled, archived versions of the article

  • Found a handy little Music Streaming Royalties Calculator thing in this article. It's not 100% accurate because none of the services pay the same rate for every song, but it shows how huge the payout discrepancies are.

  • Love your kitty. And the cool, muted reflection on the fridge.

  • Gunwalking says what?

  • My current go-to is Paul Cooper's Fall of Civilizations Podcast
