But they were all of them deceived, for another chip was made. In the land of Texas, in the labs of Neuralink, the Dark Lord Elon forged in secret, a master chip, to control all others.

One Chip to rule them all,
One Chip to find them,
One Chip to network them all,
and in the TOS legally bind them.

Thanks for the tip. The line break works, but the stanza spacing doesn't seem to be taking. I'm on Jerboa so that may be influencing the formatting.

I mean, it’s just syntax for a paragraph break that’s been in Markdown since day one, of course Jerboa supports it.

Paragraph spacing varies in different clients because it's the devs' stylistic choice. Double line height for Jerboa and Infinity, about 1.5 for web and Thunder. Exact 2.0 makes it look like the syntax is rendered without processing but it most likely isn’t.

I get it, he won't be getting an ad-sponsored or cheaply made version. The concern is safety, and it will be for a while.

Maybe Elon has a malfunctioning chip in his brain already, which would explain a lot. Anyone seen him getting seizures?
