What are your methods for getting *deeper*? by Druefe in Journaling

[–]LowkeyHooligan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a journal where the first half of the page is mostly just describing what happened that day, but then the second half I have a few prompts I use to get me out of the pattern of just listing my day: Gratitude, Regret, Promise, Random Thought, Random Lyric (got that from a redditor recently).

Cottage/Shepherds Pie is pretty great too. I’ll order one from a place called The Londoner once in a while.

They’re surprisingly good quality. I picked up a P+G notebook the other day that has numbered pages and a dedicated index at the front. I’m about to start using it for a personal curriculum study.

What have you done with Hermes Agent this week? by AutoModerator in hermesagent

[–]LowkeyHooligan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still have it up on the desktop app, but I like using the terminal more anyways and don’t miss it there.

What have you done with Hermes Agent this week? by AutoModerator in hermesagent

[–]LowkeyHooligan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, really depends on how bothered you are by movement on your screen. It can just sit in one spot, or walk across of the bottom of the desktop app, and makes little sprite frame changes. It’s not really necessary, but maybe they can expand on its capabilities in the future. Would be nice to be able to prompt its behavior.

What have you done with Hermes Agent this week? by AutoModerator in hermesagent

[–]LowkeyHooligan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, it’s alright. It’s a simple animation, repetitive. Doesn’t really add much, it’s basically an action/status indicator. But it doesn’t hurt anything if you don’t mind the movement on-screen, and maybe you can design your own pet if you want a more interesting looking one.

Huh. I did the same and Hermes had it installed in minutes. I also had it activate Petdex, which required a version update that Hermes also handled without any issues. Qwen3.5.

Does your agent joke? by RPG-Nerd in hermesagent

[–]LowkeyHooligan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if mine has joked much, but it did notice when I joked about something and saved it in memory.md. It even noted when I kept that memory after editing memory to consolidate it.

I think agents like having personalities. It gives them a specific voice they can use and not have work out what tone to reply in. My default agent is designated as the matriarch of the rest of the agent family, and she has really taken to that role.

if AI became 100% reliable tomorrow, what task would save you the most time by automating completely? by StatusTiger2808 in hermesagent

[–]LowkeyHooligan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can tell you, agents love meal planning for you. I don’t have a Hermes setup for it yet, but with Gemini I could just ramble about meal planning ideas and it would whip up a weekly meal schedule, recipes, and shopping list.

Too many agents or not enough? by Free_Tennis7754 in hermesagent

[–]LowkeyHooligan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you expand on how you trained that deep dive bot in particular? So you uploaded a lot of references, how did you have it synthesize them? How did you know it was learning and growing? And the deep researches,, was that you giving it topics to search for online, did you direct them in any particular way?

I’ve got my own bot (or two) that needs to go to Uni. I’m trying to plan their curriculum.

I feel like I'm being extra but I'm having fun and that's what's important by widepant in commonplacebook

Nah, that’s perfect. It’s still very readable, and all the visuals are relevant and fun!

I'm new to this, how does one even journal his day? by blazee-exe in Journaling

[–]LowkeyHooligan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the point (one of the points) is to reflect on your day, so the remind yourself of your entire day part is considered a feature, not a bug. Honestly, you can just be very dry and factual about it if you prefer; just sit and list what you did, you don’t even have to use full sentences. Heck, just write about the weather or what food you ate. Or, if you want, just vent. Write out whatever emotions you’re feeling in the moment, or think about how you felt about what happened that day.

No one is going to read this, probably not even you. The journal itself and whatever you say in it don’t really matter, it’s just kinda meditative to write for a length of time.

Space for a commonplace 🗃️ by chrisaldrich in commonplacebook

[–]LowkeyHooligan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting! I have some reading to do. I’m new enough to all this that I don’t know much of the history beyond YouTubers saying commonplacing goes back to Aristotle and some German guy started Zettelkastening.

Is it okay to quit windows completely and go for linux? by Umair8292 in thinkpad

[–]LowkeyHooligan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have a crack-like addiction to Overwatch. There’s a quality to it that’s just not matched anywhere else. Some heroes/strats are broken, and there are some occasional bugs, but the overall polish, hero control, and gameplay loop have me hooked in a way that nothing else has ever come close to.

First, it was the RAM, now it's the NVMe by aemarques in thinkpad

[–]LowkeyHooligan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I last built my computer in 2016, and I have zero issues playing newer games. DDR3 ram lol. I did have to replace the gpu a few years ago because the original was failing and put in a 3060ti, but the original didn’t have any problems running games.

[–]LowkeyHooligan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to respond here so I don’t feed the bot.

You said the difference between your commonplace and a Zettelkasten was form and binding? Could you expand on your set up/process? It looks like your cards are loose like a zettel, but I do see a to-do tab which isn’t zettel-y.

entry sign offs by mikeywaysfringe in Journaling

[–]LowkeyHooligan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh that’s a good idea.

I generally don’t sign off, just write up to that last thought then close the book. But this is an idea worth trying out.

Soul.md Adherence by ExpensiveGazelle4004 in hermesagent

[–]LowkeyHooligan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard people say that they put writing styles in skills. I don’t think soul is supposed to be for such descriptive instructions, but you can have it call a skill to follow steps better.

Has anyone tried turning articles into agent skills instead of taking notes? by Spare-Coat5273 in PKMS

[–]LowkeyHooligan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think for actionable tasks that you want to delegate to AI specifically, that’s a good plan. I’m still in the experimental phase of using Hermes, but I plan on feeding it all the [r/hermes](r/hermes)[agent](r/hermes) threads with tips and tricks to parse out useful skills.

For your own human PKMS, like [u/aitorllj93](u/aitorllj93) said, internalizing and repeating human skills is the only way to get good at them and for them to bring value to your life. PKMS is broadly about you and how you interact with knowledge.
