I’m scratching my head trying to figure out why the built-in firewall is undesirable. It isn’t that I can’t speculate on some possible reasons, I just didn’t realize there were so many 3rd party alternatives.

I’ve been using Markor to take notes for a year or so now, and I really enjoy it. I use SyncThing to cloudify my Markor notebook directory, and I edit the same files on my laptop using VS Code.

I’m totally trying this the next time I wait too long between mowings!

If you use your godhand to place a boulder in the midst of one of the villages worshiping you, the villagers will start praying and dancing and chanting and whatnot around the boulder. After a long enough time with the villagers charging the bolder, it would radiate with your divine presence. At this point, it is a ready “artifact”.

Artifacts don’t expand you influence zone directly, but they do a really good job of getting non-believer villagers to start worshiping you, which does extend your influence in a major way.
