Limestone is a common type of sedimentary rock which I find uncommonly interesting! It's mostly calcium carbonate, which is also what eggshells π₯, seashells π, and pearls π¦ͺ are made out of.
In places where it rains a lot, limestone erodes easily, which results in simply gorgeous landscapes such as:
HαΊ‘ Long Bay in Vietnam
Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park in Madagascar
The Li River in China
Additionally, the world's longest (Mammoth) and deepest (~~Veryovkina~~ Krubera is once again the world's deepest cave, thank you to SockOlm for pointing that out) cave systems are both found in limestone formations
Mammoth Cave in the United States
Veryovkina Cave in Georgia/Abkhazia/Russia (disputed territory)

I've made the terrible mistake of switching text editors. I've done nothing with my free time but configure emacs for the past week
Yessssss emacs!! Tell me about your config?
I'm trying lots of funky plugins to see what I need.
All stored in one giant org file with elisp code blocks (org mode has a feature to generate files from those)
Also I'm using a overlay that way I can use nix as a package manager for plugins
Nice! Mines just plain elisp init.el, using the whole vertico/orderless/marginalia/consult stack.
Im sure youre familiar but mu4e is a great email client for emacs (gnus is also good, but more... Archaic (oriented around newsgroups)). Also magit for literally every git operation ever, i have to look up the git commands cause i just know the keybindings.
If you like using lisp and feel like switching up your DE/WM, you could check out EXWM or StumpWM (or Mahogany but its in eaaaarrrrlllyyyy stages) for a WM written in lisp. Ive always got emacs open to a sly repl connected to my StumpWM session.
