Wilde gedanken eines #ADHS Menschen der gerade von der Arbeit abgelenkt wird dadurch. #Emacs und #Obsidian betrifft hab ich ja eh crude Ideen immer und bring alles in Verwirrung https://social.tchncs.de/@marlinz008/117074898199634445

so auch jetzt der Gedanke, wenn ich so ein #klickibunti Opfer wieder bin meiner selbst , komm ich auf ideen, warum programierst du dir nicht selber was das deine Obsidian Dinge ins Emacs übersetzt und so

Ich bin so fucking lost

ich hab bei meiner Recherche für mein #PIM (ist der Name eigentlich standard gewesen oder hatte Karl den entwickelt?)

#Obsidian angesehen und mich bewusst für #emacs und #orgmode entschieden

aber, mein #adhs Gehirn macht gerade nicht mit, weil Obsidian ja diese tolle Vernetzung Chart hat, die ist so toll, das brauchst du unbedingt ja wirklich

nein, Hirn, brauche ich nicht. Doch Doch

@etchedpixels @mjg59 #hp made an #Outlook clone, so #emacs should be easy as an #UEFI app!

TIL M-x cheat-sheet. Although I’ve got nearly all of it committed to muscle memory, can see this being helpful for new users of Emacs.

A moment so say thank you to people who make the open source tools/software that makes my life so much better!

Currently procrastinating by building a system to stop my procrastinating in #emacs.

I like helpful-mode. I do wish I could get it to show up in my *eldoc* buffer though. #emacs

Finding all the things in my emacs config from the last time I tried to create a procrastination prevention system.

Having some good "workspace sounds" helps I feel.

(defun tos-ops ()
  (mpv-start "--volume=60" (expand-file-name "/home/bld/tos-bridge-8hrs.opus")))
(defun ds9-ops ()
  (mpv-play "/home/bld/ds9-ops.opus"))
(defun tng-bridge ()
  (mpv-play "/home/bld/tng-bridge.m4a"))
(defun soundscape ()
  (let ((soundscapes '(tos-ops ds9-ops tng-bridge)))
    (funcall (seq-random-elt soundscapes))))

«Web Design for Terminal Browsers»

Five text browsers, zero JavaScript, and CSS that barely exists; here is what actually works when your page has to read well in a terminal.

@Gina @selectric How does a billionaire dollar company suck at making search work with email? Glad I switched to #notmuch with #emacs and search is blazingly fast with precise search queries.

“Elisp Cheatsheet for Python Programmers” updated with translations between parsed URL objects/components.

Now available in the v0.5.4 update.

Files under home directory are the only files I care about, I guess :)

(defun my-maybe-mark-file-precious ()
  "Protect against I/O errors while saving files under home directory. Editing symlinks will unlink them."
  (when (and buffer-file-name
             (string-prefix-p "/home/thisuser/" buffer-file-name))
    (setq-local file-precious-flag t)))

(add-hook 'find-file-hook 'my-maybe-mark-file-precious)

Notes:

1. I am not calling expand-file-name, because my home directory is always the same.
2. I got neither hardlinks nor symlinks which are supposed to be editable.

It's already in #Debian #backports:

I hope, threads will be supported by @gajim and @movim, too, some day. Let's see.

"This flavour of undo is called "History Undo" (see page 4 in this excellent academic paper). It was first introduced by Emacs. It leads to a much better user experience and feels very intuitive to use."

Tell me, you people of the frediverse. Which other editor apart from #emacs does it?

Надеюсь, название «orgdown» для разметки org-mode не приживётся — оно максимально всратое и бессмысленное 😅

@codeDude

You do not need to choose emacs over vi. If vi is your editor, you can just simply use it on emacs. Evil Mode is one way to do that.

Sooo, I looked into how you can pass line and column numbers to different text editors. How did you spend your evening? 😅

Modified C-t transpose-chars and M-transpose-words to be reversible: transpose without moving point away from the schwerpunkt.

Also transpose-words-dwim that transposes the words around "and" and "or." Also reversibly, remaining on the conjunction. That one is uh wayyy more hacky.

@itskamrankhan In a free/libre and extremely capable software called #orgmode whose limits are only bound by the limits of your imagination. (1)

Through #FOSS and (in contrast to #Markdown (3)) well designed and easily re-used clear text data format #orgdown (2, 5), I do have many possibilities to generate input for it and re-use output in other tools. Orgdown is recognized without any manual conversion in lots of tools (4).

Let me cite Dominik's tenth rule: Any sufficiently complicated #PIM or note-taking program contains an ad hoc, informally specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Org mode.
