    Published Oct 2023.

    Edit: apparently adding a date of the article is being inferred as a rebuttal or statement of some sort. It wasn’t meant as such. I thought this was current because most people aren’t posting 2 year old articles. So I figured I’d share the date. That’s all.

      In my opinion, adding the date is a good thing. It helps provide context.

      Many Lemmings do appreciate context and nuance.

      Yeah, really reaching into the ancient misty mists for that one, all the way back in the hoary years of 2023 when even real life was monochrome 🙄

      Edit: I understand now it wasn’t intended as a rebuttal, but it sure came off like one. The date of publication is usually only relevant if the information has been superseded, or is so far in the past that the information is no longer relevant.
