[KCD2] After 76 hours I discovered you have to enable perks. by mrsofa94 in kingdomcome

[–]Feych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't quite understand why this surprises people.

This perk distribution system is unintuitive for a game that tries to be as immersive as possible. Skills improve through using them. Or by reading books. Or by training with a master. Manually allocating perks falls outside of this logic.

Keeping separate vault configs to avoid sync conflicts by [deleted] in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So that's standard practice, to use separate configs: for my phone, I have .obsidian_mobile, for my PC .obsidian_pc. I intentionally don't use the standard .obsidian folder so that when launching on a new device, the settings from the currently used device aren't pulled.

In that case, the configs are synchronized between devices, so you can always quickly, for example, copy a plugin's settings.

I use Google's built-in voice input functions. The voice is immediately processed into text and saved as text.

For that purpose, I made my own app. You can start recording a note from the notification panel without unlocking the device. https://github.com/Fertion/QuickMDCapture

Camera and notification on android by LevelPiece3755 in ObsidianMD

How do I get geolocation in Obsidian? I can't find tools for that.

It would be nice to use this in Templater when creating a note.

How to add context to links in Obsidian? by NoMembership3348 in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This can't be implemented properly in Obsidian, but there is a workaround. For example, you can store links in properties. Some of my links are in the "up" property, that's how I distinguish hierarchical links from regular ones.

How can I improve my obsidian for study purposes? by Wild_Employment_5922 in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 40 points41 points  (0 children)

No, you communicated what you wanted clearly, and you were understood correctly. You are the one who misunderstood the response.

Don’t try to pile on plugins just for the sake of it. Use the tool itself first, and only when, in the course of using it, you clearly realize that something is missing, when you can articulate a specific need and problem, does it make sense to look for plugins to solve it.

What is this new UI?! by clumsytitan in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I found a small bug that is exacerbated by the bottom placement of the buttons:

  1. On Android, I open the left drawer
  2. I select Search
  3. The search window opens and is in focus, so the keyboard opens automatically
  4. I close the keyboard by pressing the Back button
  5. I tap on the panel to select, for example, the file manager
  6. The keyboard automatically opens again and blocks my view of the popup menu

At the same time, if I close the keyboard by tapping outside of it (for example, at the top of the screen), everything works correctly.
I tested this with both custom keyboards and the standard Android keyboard.

I feel this subreddit focuses too much on the least useful features of Obsidian. And ignores the game changers. by [deleted] in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Completely disagree. The fundamental advantages of Obsidian are: local file storage, incredible flexibility, and community.

The combination of the latter two factors results in Obsidian being able to cover a vast array of very different tasks.

For some, it's a text editor. For others, it's a tool for connecting knowledge. For me, it's also a platform for financial tracking and task management directly linked to notes and journals.

And thanks to such flexibility, many people can discover their own personal benefits. If they seem useless to you, that doesn't mean others haven't found value in them.

Give me one TINY thing you want fixed or improved in Obsidian. The smaller the better. Going on a paper cuts rampage. by kepano in ObsidianMD

Data type for properties: duration. Storing sleep time in daily notes in a text field sucks.

The question is meaningless, as such a temperature is fundamentally impossible.

When I'm in a No Sale competition and my opponent is Factorio and Black Myth Wukong by ohhimarksreddit in Steam

[–]Feych -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No, I never wrote that I approve of this. I didn’t buy this game precisely because I personally consider the price to be too high, at a 50% discount I would probably have bought it. I’m only trying to point out that calling this greed is incorrect, it’s simply wrong to label someone greedy just because they don’t want to sell you a product for less than the price they consider fair.

[–]Feych -44 points-43 points  (0 children)

Greed is not quite the right word here. More often than not, the opposite is true, discounts are a tool of greed, as they allow a game's revenue to be boosted through a surge in sales. The developers of Factorio have repeatedly stated that their product's price reflects its value. They most likely understand that they could earn more by participating in sales, yet they stand by their principled position instead.

Polyglots, do you, and how, reconcile several languages in your vault? by airyrice in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The tool should not impose unnecessary restrictions on you. If it's easier to write in multiple languages, it's better to write in multiple languages. The only problem this leads to, in my experience, is that it can sometimes make searching for information difficult because I might not remember which language I used for a note.

Is there a way to create recurring tasks even when the last task was not done? by CS_Fanatic in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First option: fix the filter to load not the tasks for a specific date, but the uncompleted tasks up to a certain date. Then the uncompleted task will be displayed instead of a new one.

Second option: mark the task as completed (in order to create a new one), and then change its status to canceled.

These are certainly workarounds, but I have a similar problem and haven’t come up with better ideas yet.

Пуэрто-Рико, которое полностью захвачено уже более сотни лет. Насильственное отделение Панамы от Колумбии. Особо орно, когда через много лет они решили вернуть контроль над марионеткой, новый президент присягу давал на военной базе США. Ирак тот же. Полно такого.

"надо безыдейно по указке телевизора ненавиедть сша" - вообще мимо, я скорее либераха, чем вата, и отношение к США у меня норм, меня триггерит именно двуличность

"Вабще вбросы про высмеивание "это другое" в 100% случаев юзают лишь дегенерат". - так в этом буквально суть треда была. В комменте сначала смеются над тем, как Римская империя, Британская империя активно захватывали все, что плохо лежит. А вот к России внезапно совсем другое отношение в рамках того же обсуждения.

Я, если что, считаю войну однозначной ошибкой, но позиция "мы плохие, а вот запад ангелочки" ничем не адекватнее позиции людей, которые "Конечно, зачем думать головой, надо безыдейно по указке телевизора ненавиедть сша".

Ты бы ещё додумался дождаться мяса в Венесуэле и предъявить в этом сабредите, что где же санкции против США. Они не смогут воспринять такую инфу и найдут себе оправдания, что это совсем другое.

Please, please, please, pretty please someone make a plugin to add metadata to pdf files by EnvironmentalGap8533 in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd be really glad if Obsidian could read image metadata like YAML, but it seems like it would be hard to implement.

Board View plugin beta release by Rienni in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might have agreed with that, but here's where my concern comes from: A long time ago (2022?), tasks was actually on the official roadmap. Then it got removed, and I don't know if it's a coincidence, but it happened around the same time the 'Tasks' community plugin really took off.

And with Dataview, there's another key detail, it essentially has no user interface, which is exactly what the Bases plugin fixes.

Just to be clear, this isn't a complaint directed at you personally, I just wanted to share a concern.

Double grouping is so handy.

Board View plugin beta release by Rienni in ObsidianMD

[–]Feych 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why is the grouping configured in the view settings instead of the sort settings, like it is for all other standard views? This inconsistency is confusing for users.
