Would be pretty easy to do. It’s like duplicating a tab but with the last prompt.

So you’ve had the same thought?

What’s β€œloom”?

Random ChatGPT opinion:
Chats should evolve in a tree branch manner instead of a back and forth chat style.

This way you can explore the different options and go down each.

Late in life I’ve come around to how good sports are at turning your brain off. Thank you, Premier League.

Nothing reeks more of wage slavery than salivating at the thought of a 4-day workweek.

There’s something liberating in letting your credit card die and seeing all the services come at you demanding to be paid.

ChatGPT answered that GPT-5 is coming out in 2026.

@diabrowser.com answered correctly though (using a GPT model)

Odd…

Love Them or Hate Them, This Couple Reign in Russian Literature

Oh but with Lacan you get into that impossible to translate area with his incredible wordplay.

I was revisiting this piece I had read a long time ago and was now surprised that these translators were accused of being too literal!

There’s a famous literary debate as to whether it’s preferable to translate literally and thus access the original more directly. Or translate what the author β€œmeant” which means more interpretation from the translator.

I guess translations will always mean you have no way of knowing…

That’s so nice and kind ❀️

Translations are weird. Luckily, so many things get translated to English (vs Spanish).

It would be interesting to know what language received the most. Surely German or French.

I don’t think I understand the question.

The better a translation is, the more access you have to the book.

@quiche.industries is there any way to set things back to default?!

Too many options!!

Following your lead: doing just that right now!

I’m just adding a few of the Obsisian vault folders into IA to access the same files.

Curious if you wrote about your workflow somewhere…

Do you use each for a different thing?

Ah yes. β€œReader” apps and file systems.

Niiiice. Curious to know how you use it.

I β€œjust write” on it. But partake in a couple of cool plugins.

None of the graph nonsense though.

Any ex Zoloft zombies able to report what life is like post pills?

Dealing with a Zoloft zombie is like trying to milk a stone for any semblance of emotion.

Letters to Luxembourg You have no idea just how much I miss you. I think I needed to try out being back home for a bit, to get out of my system the constant fear of missing out on being close to… who and what I’ve…

Wondering if a #luxembourg will make this reach its appropriate audience

Is the new Jack Dorsey app stupid and promoting skin cancer? I truly don’t get it.

I profoundly admire β€œcontent creators” who create in English when it’s not their first or native language.

It takes a courage native English speakers are completely oblivious to.
