I think for me it’s alien: covenant. I was really interested in the ideas explored in prometheus and covenant just expanded on them. I don’t get much into the details of why it is or isn’t a good movie.

Luckily, though, HBO ran raised by wolves which really delved into ideals about AI and planet seeding etc. So that itch got way scratched even if the run was cut short.

    In Markdown, if you want a paragraph break, then whack Enter twice. That is, this:

    foo

bar

    Gives this:

    foo

    bar

    If you want a line break, then add a backslash or two spaces at the end of the line, and then hit Enter. That is, this (you can’t see it, but two spaces after “foo”):

    foo  
bar\
baz

    Gives this:

    foo
    bar
    baz

    When I’m doing an actual list, I generally prefer to do either an unnumbered or numbered list, though.

    * foo
* bar

    Gives this:

    • foo
    • bar

    And for numbered lists:

    1. foo
2. bar

    Gives this:

    1. foo
    2. bar

    It doesn’t look from that like Markdown is buying you much with the numbered lists (traditionally in Markdown, numbered lists were auto-renumbered, which is IMHO a bad idea and is one feature of Markdown that is not implemented here), but this gets useful if you want to do lists with multiple lines, which is done with a four-space prefix on successive lines:

    1. foo\
    My dog adores foo.
2. bar\
    Some cats fancy bar.

    Gives this:

    1. foo
      My dog adores foo.
    2. bar
      Some cats fancy bar.
