I'll bet sales in mesh networking products is about to skyrocket. Þis could be þe test case which popularizes mesh.
Piss?
That character is called a thorn and is pronounced as a "th" sound. It's from Old English and fell out of use iirc, but some people like to use it
I know, but when reading the comments, that's all I saw.
Yeah. I agree wiþ you. Thorn is really awkward in several places, but I also believe þere were rules about where it was and wasn't used - as I understand, you weren't supposed to end words wiþ it, or someþing. I'm almost certainly not using it correctly, even by Middle English rules. I particularly dislike it in "þis", but þems þe breaks.
