Did you know birds sound like bats?
I actually am surprised this isn't common knowledge. One of our house used to be infested when I was a kid.
"It turns out bats (some bats anyway) sing — sing uncannily, spookily, like songbirds, with the trilling, the chirping, as if they were nightingales."

:bat: :bird:
Tired: "Clinton lost the election because of misogyny."
Wired: "Clinton lost the election because her campaign didn't resonate with the working class."
Woke: No campaign by Clinton could possibly resonate with the American working class, who revile the notion of a woman in power.
With 500 characters, I can post useful snippets from #Emacs Wiki to Mastodon!
(defun unfill-region (beg end)
"Unfill the region, joining text paragraphs into a single
logical line. This is useful, e.g., for use with
`visual-line-mode'."
(interactive "*r")
(let ((fill-column (point-max)))
(fill-region beg end)))
Now all we need is a bot that scours the fediverse for definitions and publishes them to MELPA automatically! :grinning:
Emacs Lisp tip:
1. url-retrieve ignores the Content-type header, specifically the charset. The buffer is not decoded at all, as far as I can see.
2. You cannot decode *within* the buffer url-retrieve gives you, but you can decode the buffer (or better, the body of the response) into *another* buffer.
