I’m many things. Here’s perhaps a few worth knowing.
I’m:
If you’re into Mastodon, you can also find me @UdeRecife@firefish.social.
Several options:
I had many issues since the upgrade. After getting tired of hunting them down individually, my one-time solution was to nuke my old configs and simply start anew. Fresh home, .config, .local.
I use both htop and btop—depending on the mood. htop is less prettier, but more reliable. But sometimes I want pretty and I go with btop. top is where I draw the line. It’s too nerdy for me.
Not really that fancy. It’s just a marketing euphemism. The giving of a cool name to something very mundane.
You’re right, it’s just a clouded way of saying 'someone else’s computer '.
Hello! Nice to meet you. I know and love your kind. One monitor is pretty standard, so I have a lot of friends just like you.
Yup, 3 monitors user here. I guarantee it’s not that uncommon.
(And yes, I’m still running X11)
Not being open source is the great… sin for me. Note taking is an investment in the future, and betting on a closed source platform is a big no no—for me, that is.
I know the content is safe in Obsidian, since it’s just Markdown files. But the workflow? Not so much.
And I know the developers behind Obsidian have their reasons to close source it. Nothing against that. But since that’s their way, it’s not my way.
Please, I don’t want to be rude, so don’t take me wrong.
I think that’s not accurate. Trillium is not even an outliner, let alone a block note taking app. I think you’re mixing trillium with Logseq.
My memory may be failing me, but I think trillium has been around longer than Roam Research.
And yes, it’s a great open source note taking app!
Logseq user here too.
However, for a quick, transitory note, I use Kate or, more recently, Xpad. Only then I transcribe the content to Logseq. Why?
Because while Logseq is great as an outliner and for network thinking, it’s as graceful and agile as an elephant.
The gist of what I’m saying is: for now, and for me (hardware might be playing a role here, but I don’t think so) Logseq is a good note database. For quick typing, I have to use something else.
Espanso. A text expander that also runs commands.
Not OP, but here’s how. You live-distro yourself to a running command prompt. You then connect to the internet, mount the partitions, finally chrooting to your computer’s storage install. Once there, you clear pacman’s lock from var and run a full update: pacman -Syyu. Wait until it finishes, exit chroot, reboot. 9 out 10 times works as expected.
Early 2002. I read about Linux somewhere, and I was trying a Mandrake install. I also read about control+alt+Backpage, which eagerly proceed to try.
Now I’m on tty, cursor blinking, thinking: I broke Linux.
Scared, I cleverly undid that mistake by simply… reinstalling the distro. Ignorance is NOT bliss.
I had two issues triggering the ad blocking warning. Mind that I’m running Firefox and Ublock origin.
The first was the setting to block ads on YouTube enhancer add on.
The second was a rule I created on Ublock origin to block the notification bell.
After clearing both, no more warnings. At least for now.
Vegan when eating, Arch Linuxing when computing, communist when sharing, capitalist when investing, …
The list knows no end. Why not just say what’s appropriate for each particular circumstance?
I read it differently. It’s an ambience. The author is not taking off actual interviews being scheduled.
Rather, replies to your applications are so few that you end up getting frustrated. Because of that, in the long run, you forget checking the website. Now, if in the meanwhile you get a reply, nobody’s home to receive it.
You miss it not because you’re lazy or careless, but because you’re human and there’s so much you can do to keep hoping.
For arch Linux, there’s Topgrade. All there, in just one command. All. There. Official repos, AUR, even firmware upgrades.
Here’s my alias to update the whole system. It includes fetching the fastest mirrors, topgrade, and cleaning the update’s packages cache. Tailor it to your own needs.
alias update='sudo fetchmirrors -q -s 5 -v -c PT && yes | topgrade -c -y --no-retry --disable gem --disable vim --disable emacs --disable gem --disable sdkman --disable rustup --disable cargo --disable remotes && sudo paccache -rk 0'
Thanks for that link. I didn’t know disroot hosted Jitsi.
For others in this thread, here’s a list of Jitsi instances: https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/community/community-instances/
Read as Law Enforcement Officer. And I was, huh? Then it hit me. Ah, the zodiac…
I came here to post something similar, but yours is probably a better suggestion. I’m now fond of beet flavoured water kefir.
Hey, you make a great point. There’s a false dichotomy being presented here. As you see it, local-first is a bit of a misnomer when you already expecting your device to join a remote environment.
Yes, makes sense that we’re being lured by the so-called cloud hosting. Following a business model that sells convenience in lieu of data control, cloud providers are distorting our current understanding of remote hosting. They’re breaking the free flow of information by siloing user data.
Now, with that being said, I’d like to add something about your presentation. I’d suggest you avoid walls of text. Use paragraph breaks. They’re like resting areas for the eyes. They allow the brain to catch up and gather momentum for the next stretch of text.
Regardless. You brought light to this conversation. For that, thank you.
I love copyq so much. It’s definitely one of the apps I first install in a new deployment. When I hear of the troubles some people go through for not having a clipboard manager, I just smh and think, ‘copyq’.
