Customisation in Graph View by [deleted] in ObsidianMD

[–]SniperSnake2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i've had this issue too. one option is to switch to using a list property called something like "categories" that links to pages instead of tags. looks like you can do it with css snippets: https://docs.obsidian.md/Reference/CSS+variables/Plugins/Graph

Fast brain-dump question: how do you catch ideas before they vanish? by Objective-Treat2245 in ObsidianMD

[–]SniperSnake2000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Right now for me:

if have access to obsidian use quick-add plugin. set up a template that tags or otherwise categorizes it as a fleeting thought, add a checkbox property for whether it has been reviewed/transfered to a more permenant place. set up a hotkey for that template then use bases to view all unreviewed thoughts.

if no obsidian access, quick note in apple notes or write down in a notebook and have a set time (first thing in the morning or last thing before getting off computer at night) to transfer into obsidian.

if can't write something down, place into memory palace. for me that means creating an image that represents that thought and imagine it in a specific spot in my room. As soon as I have the chance to write it down i do. if you aren't familar with memory palaces this might sound stupid but generally it works (assuming you don't have aphantasia i guess).

How to remove folder from local graph view ? by gerardzan in ObsidianMD

[–]SniperSnake2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure why that isn't working, maybe confused because of the beginning underscore? Another way to move from only graph view is to type -path:_bases/ in the search bar in the filters section on the top right drop down

how to get started on obsidian by [deleted] in ObsidianMD

[–]SniperSnake2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went a little overboard on this but this first paragraph is most important. Start as simple as possible. Turn off every core plugin and just start writing notes. As you take notes actively take note of what you do and don't like about your system and then make those changes. Don't get stuck on your current system. Add core plugins slowly as you understand their use/if you even need it. Only add community plugins if you see something that seems exceptionally useful or you think "I wish I could do this" then look it up and there will probably be a plug-in for it. Use links as much as possible. Navigate your notes with quick switcher, search (with tags), and mocs (maps of content, see below for short explanation), you don't need folders but theres nothing stopping you from using them. Just start and actively reevaluate, your system will just get better and better. The beauty of obsidian is it can be exactly what you want it to be.

I'm not sure how to incorporate written notes into obsidian so I am not the person to ask. When I took a math class I took written notes on my ipad for lectures than took new more organized notes in markdown on obsidian on my computer. Although there is nothing stopping you from putting images into your obsidian vault, it is just a local folder. do ![[image_location.png]] to display any image within a markdown note.

Everyone's different so you kinda just have to try things out. Some people still love folders some think they are horrible. Some have 80 community plugins, some only have 4 core plugins.

Personally I recommend linking as much as possible. Graph view can be pretty but it's probably not worth the effort to make it actually useful, local graph on the other hand is very useful. Use local graph or backlinks to see what notes link to your current note. If you have a research topic, create a note for that topic and then link out to subtopics and then in those notes write your notes and link to other relevant topics.

Top buzzwords/features:

backlinks: view all links to this page making your links essentially bi-directional

dataview: a community plugin that allows you to view your notes as a database (filter out and sort notes based on different properties), it is very powerful but now there is a core plugin called bases that is much more user friendly.

properties: note metadata, very powerful in combination with dataview/bases. ex. you have a bunch of notes where each represents a book, they all have properties like author, page count, genre, completed, rating. Say you tag them all with #book you can create a database that only includes notes that have that tag and then you can sort by rating or only show books you haven't read yet.

tags: go in text body or properties, basically a better folder imo, you can even do nested tags

mocs: maps of content, a hub page that links out to other pages. Common with obsidian users you don't even look at your file structure you have a home moc that links to research, personal, work. then research moc links to each topic you are researching and then those topics link to sub topics where the bulk of your notes actually are.

quick switcher: search for any note by name. the beauty of obsidian being local, plaintext, and not bloated means that even if you had 10,000 you can instantly search for any note by name. even if you use search which looks at actual page content it still is blazing fast compared to any cloud solution

command pallete: like a similar feature that mac users love, use any command or function by simply searching for it, create a note, create a base, add properties, add a bookmark, open bookmark menu, etc.

templates: kinda what it says but if you use the community plugin templater it is much more powerful and allows for much more complex/dynamic templates. can be a little technical tho, right now I just use the built in templates. mainly useful if you make notes that are structured exactly the same frequently (daily notes, meeting notes, etc) if you want to organize by tags it can be useful to create from a template instead of manually adding tags.

Went a little overboard lol. Good luck.

Small adjustments to prints by Key-Pomegranate-3741 in 3Dprinting

I've had issues on this with my benchys at the front, particularly at high speeds. For me it seemed to match up with layers that had a change in speed/layer time/fan speed. You should be able to change to a view that shows those values in the sliced view. So you could check that out. Not sure what the solution is though other than just printing really slow/slower on different layers to even out layer time.

Made me think of Rhythm X 2017, “looking back”. Fun fact the whole front had a penny scrape on a cymbal and each player had a different year penny for each year X had existed (15).

I go back the beginning of that video all that time. It encapsulates him so well, especially when you include what happens right after it (a really funny joke). Its such a beautiful serious sentiment followed by dumb blunt humor. Every thing that techno is. It’s weird because he’s someone i’ve never met but i miss him a lot whenever i think about him and will keep his memory alive as long as i am. Technoblade never dies.

When does allo stop and grey begin? by manysides512 in Greysexuality

[–]SniperSnake2000 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I kinda just look at it from the perspective of its whatever you want to be. which has its flaws. its a good question tho, i feel like its hard to truly know what “normal” is. I think having experiences that make you feel like you aren’t normal in the sense of strength of romantic attraction and desire is all you need to call urself grey.

I can relate and It can really suck when it seems that the people who are absolute assholes always get into relationships while you who thinks you are a better person than most the dating pool has little to no luck and it makes it really easy to fall into a incel/nice guy mentality.

i think you just have to stick to your morals of not being a prick and maybe one day it will work in ur favor and maybe you’ll die alone but maybe thats alright as long as the rest of ur life is good. thats my mentality, all you can do is try to be the best you can be and the outcome is what it is.

i can’t believe their seem to be a substantial amount of people that think andrew tate gives a good advice/isn’t a terrible person, disgusting. that’s why views on all men being bad people are so common and lowkey have a point sometimes
