    I remember — it was a happy time. Very exciting. And it seems longer than that.
    It sure has been a journey!

    One can’t subscribe without setting up a YouTube account.

    And I’m not gonna do that; if I were, I’d have done it years ago.

    This event and it’s reminder should be double posted both here and on the FTB channel. More content brings more viewers brings more content.

    First time I’ve subscribed to a channel that said “This channel doesn’t have any content”.

    John Morales
    I recently (last month) set up a youtube channel so I could comment on some of the more obscure channels that I enjoy.
    So far it’s been harmless, nothing has crawled out of the screen, and no MIBs have knocked on my door.

    chigau, sure. But I know damn well YouTube already knows me, and I am annoyed that it sometimes asks me to sign in to “prove my age”.
    So, fuck ’em, they want me to make an account, so I don’t.

    I can take it or leave it, but I’m refractory that way.

    On-topic, I remember how excited people were about the new platform after the move from SB, and that one of the features of this platform (WP-based) was LaTex support. Alas, after that initial excitement, no-one really has bothered with it.

    That’s awesome! I can remember when FTB was just a wee youngling. Fun times, they were. Yeah, it does seem longer somehow.

    Wow, ten years since I rejoiced that you and Ed Brayton were finally gonna fix movement Atheism.

    … It’s been a bumpy era. Damn.

    John @9: For someone like me who’s not very familiar with it, LaTeX is really only worth the effort if you need special characters, like Greek indices

    F_{\mu\nu} = \partial_\mu A_\nu - \partial_\nu A_\mu

    or a proper square root (rather than the piddly √)

    \displaystyle d\tau = dt\sqrt{1 - v^2(t)/c^2}

    etc, etc. And stuff like that doesn’t come up much around here.

    You might get more subscribers if there way a way to subscribe on freethoughtblogs.com. The side bar and top menus have no way to subscribe to the whole blog’s writers in mass.
