 [^1]: It turns out that the developer behind Bubbles.town [used an LLM to categorize blogs](https://brennan.day/floating-up-an-interview-with-the-creator-of-bubbles-town-benjamin-behnke/), even when AI crawlers were specifically disallowed in a blog's [robots.txt](/robots.txt).

+[^2]: Like many publications of Burns' poems, this one makes use of the '[apologetic apostrophe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apologetic_apostrophe)'. As an FYI, when rendering the Scots language, it is a faux pas to use apostrophes in Scots words as though they are bastardized English words, slang, or mere pronunciation. Words such as "a," or "aw," "fu," "fae," or "frae," "gie," "mak," and "dae" are all complete Scots words and so do not require apostrophes.

+comment: "Coming from EndeavourOS (which I really like), I had the idea in my head that Fedora KDE was some sort of Shangri-La where everything just worked out of the box. Well, I can't install KDE applications using Discover for some reason, attempting an upgrade with Discover went *very* poorly, and Kmail is crashing every time I attempt to send a signed email. By comparison, Endeavour was rock solid, although there's so much more you need to do manually. All I really want is a good OOTB experience without a bunch of manual setup, recent packages, not too much system maintenance, and reliable graphical package management. Is that too much to ask?"
