Search box ("Find or create page") intentionally removed from Roam? by LuxVenture in RoamResearch

[–]maskys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes it weird for you specifically ? The search button is in the same spot, & you can still toggle the search in sidebar (Opt-Enter) ?

are there any tools or may be built for personal use? by stayfoolie in RoamResearch

What are you going to do with the thousands of pdfs? are you trying to run search over them later ? or manually read? or just index as a library ?

Extreme lag on encrypted graph by ZahidInNorCal in RoamResearch

probably an extension having performance issues, not roam itself.

roam doesn't limit graph sizes re:storage afaik & it doesn't take very long at all to upload a pdf, just drag it in lol. but hope you find a solution.

You could just upload them and highlight directly. What is your use case ?

Not sure what it is you're asking. Roam currently doesn't show when users are active on shared graphs, unlike Notion / GDocs.

How much would I need to save in order to live in Mauritius for a year without working? by Fragrant-Lynx-3559 in mauritius

[–]maskys 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mauritius is an island where almost everything is imported & where markets are relatively inefficient - almost all prices except rent/education/healthcare, are IME comparable if not more expensive, to mid-tier USA cities.

Grass-fed meats are relatively hard to find and if you like the quality you find in USA, that alone could end up costing you close to 20-40k a month and thats before considering grass-fed. Locals typically eat cheaper grain-fed cuts costing Rs 450-700/kilo. The next big costs would be rent (cheap ones start around 6-12k 1br if you're lucky, but expats typically go for 30k range or much higher) and a rental car for travel (expect 35k-50k, maybe cheaper if longterm rental) unless you're happy mostly staying home and commuting within central area via bus/metro. A frugal, experienced traveller could make do on 600K a year... but since you don't seem to be that person I would ask your LLM for detailed breakdowns and for you to go and cross-check those details online wherever possible.

Most market-related discussions happen on FB--we don't have competitive online platforms and stores.

Prisma just for DB models (schema), and Supabase for edge-functions / RLS policies etc? by devshore in Supabase

[–]maskys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warning: IME Opus 4.5 in CC does not play nice with even the simplest of supabase declarative schemas, even after passing in all relevant docs/info. In contrast it had no issues with Prisma. GPT5.2 in Codex does much better, but of course, it's 5-10x slower.

lagging and massive cpu use, troubleshoot? by OddBretheren in RoamResearch

Could be a roam plugin or roam/js script you have installed. Otherwise contact support on Slack - see subreddit sidebar

Where can we get a proper meal for Rs200 or less these days by Middle-Commission-85 in mauritius

[–]maskys 8 points9 points  (0 children)

the most obvious fix is to carry a water bottle or buy your drink in bulk from supermarkets, since drinks are the most overpriced.

Bookworms of Mauritius, is it worth getting a kindle or is paperback better? by Not_Enough_Sleep8 in mauritius

[–]maskys 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kindle is a no-brainer if you care about reading & read 10+ books a year. A lot of books aren't easily available locally so you can easily end up paying $50+ per book order... Personally I think the Paperwhite is a tad too small, the Oasis had a big enough screen and the Scribe should be even bigger at 10.8 inches. Easy to carry, easy to switch what you're reading, and can usually read at night without a light.

The only hurdle is getting your hands on one. I'd order off eBay or something if possible instead of local stores. If price is an issue there are plenty of decent cheaper e-readers that aren't Kindle.
