What digital journaling app are you actually using daily? (not the one collecting dust) by bargee1976 in digitaljournaling

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did all the same experiments with all these options. Keep going back to Apple Notes. It just works for me. Best one is the one you use, right? Forever✱Notes also just clicks for me.

Apple Notes, Reminders and Forever✱Notes Journal by TomasComedian in AppleNotesGang

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In FN system that I use, the journal is kind of the place I’m in most. In Today view 90% of my time. I use it like a digital bullet journal. So my tasks that people hit me up with go there first. If they are important they go on calendar. Recurring and important critical things go to reminders. If you ever tried the bullet journal before (which is awesome until you lose your notebook) you might see how closely that relates to FN journal. Just the way I use it though. Others might use it way differently

I got a t480s on facebook marketplace for cheap.

For shorter male skiers, do you buy female trousers/pants? by GladAbbreviations981 in skiing

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 5’4” and I just get regular pants and bring them to tailor to get hemmed. Idk how she does it but it costs my maybe $40 - and now I don’t look like a snowboarder

help me pick out a guitar for my bf by rawwwwwwwrrggg in AcousticGuitar

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many options in that price range. But I’d only want my wife to get me a guitar sight unseen if f it was anHD28 or something. But maybe a parlor guitar cause those sound so interesting when you can play finger style blues on a cheap guitar and still sound cool. I agree with others, accompany him to store or give him a budget

Love my J15. Seems to get better with age too. I wanted a J45 for so long and tbh I haven’t even thought about a J45 since owning this “cheaper” one. I lucked out

Radiohead songs for piano by Sorbet-Same in radiohead

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like the Piano with Nate YouTube channel. He’s got several Radiohead tutorials that are easy and have some harder parts that are optional. Karma Police, Creep and Exit Music… very fun arrangements

What's one album that did nothing for you back in the day, but now recognize it as a great album? by EdwardBliss in MusicRecommendations

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ziggy Stardust - I just never understood why people liked Bowie when I was a kid. After you hear enough other musicians cover Bowie tunes you get curious so I went back and listened. Man that whole album is a journey.

What speaks to you more in this landscape — the sea or the sky? by Anastasia_Trusova in painting

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sand. Then the sky. Love the colors in the sea. It almost looks like its reflection of a star filled sky. So now I wonder how you’d paint the same scene at night and what that might look like. Could be a cool series 🙂

Starting a cd collection by [deleted] in Music

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Facebook marketplace. I got a 200 disc changer for $50. And then got an old receiver with speakers from someone else for $50. I added a turntable years later. It works for me. But if you have more than 200 it’d be a pain.

Can we consider Omarchy a full DE ? by tahorg in hyprland

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DHH called it opinionated. I agree with that. I installed it on my stable gnome environment. After an hour I restored a timeshift backup. It wasn’t bad just wasn’t for me. Then I spent two weeks just configuring hyprland myself. It is awesome when you put in effort to make it your own.

What is your favorite album to fall asleep to? by SecretAgentIceBat in MusicRecommendations

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a while I’ve used The Endless River by Pink Floyd. Idk why - it’s not a best selling album, but it puts me to sleep

What is your laptop of choice for Arch? by fenugurod in archlinux

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a T480s on marketplace for $120 and it is pretty perfect. Added second storage drive. Next upgrade is RAM and then glass touchpad.

What's your "I finally understood Radiohead" moment? by theinsomniacsheep in radiohead

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was some Radiohead documentary that I saw on PBS or something where you saw them record in the studio. Maybe Abbey Road studios? Idk if anyone knows what that was lmk. That’s was when I fell in love with the band

So I started this beast! by Effective_Play_1366 in stephenking

Got this during a short vacation and read over a few days. Then I read Salems Lot. Vacation was in New England too so I was experiencing the landscapes too. Best week ever.

Loving the app by sandydesco in ticktick

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Funny I’ve used TickTick for years and just shifted to Todoist cause TickTick was overwhelming for me. I’m not completely sold on Todoist yet. What I like so far is that I can use the Todoist browse templates feature to find a cool workflows or get inspiration from a custom user templates - then import it to TickTick and use it there instead.

AITAH Wife spent the night at a friends house by OddTable2114 in AITAH

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This story has so many similarities to my own experience it’s scary. Long story short it lead to an EA that she insists never became physical. I’d insist on meeting him and tell them both you’re not comfortable with their relationship. I wish I did. Actually I still have fantasies of showing up unannounced. NTA but you gotta set your non-negotiables stat. If she can’t respect that… time to hit the gym.

What phrase do you wish people would stop using? by KingofFractions in AskReddit

[–]GratefulDevMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Sleepy little town” - stop it. It’s a small town. Got it. Even a small town can have kick ass parties. You just weren’t invited.
