gollark: This costs money *and* you have to carry it around.

gollark: This is slow and annoying compared to `cp -r`.

gollark: Equal/better how? I don't know about pen-capable ones, but there are some very cool developments nowadays with graph-structured note-taking applications. I am, very slowly, making one.

gollark: I mean, there's no search, backups are hard, you can't conveniently include nicely rendered diagrams, there are no links, you have to write text with a pen, storage actually costs non-negligible quantities of money.

gollark: Pen and paper are really quite bad.
