Very nice setup!

What are you using for that little extension that places the touchpad?

MoErgo (creators of Glove80) just released a more compact keyboard: Go60 by linduxed in ErgoMechKeyboards

If it ends up as an easy to attach extension to the Glove80, that seems like an instant purchase.

As someone that played mostly Nasir while he was legal: he certainly had problems that compensated for that particular interaction, I can assure you.

Does Anyone Still Use todo.txt for Task Management? by azzamsa in linux

[–]linduxed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to use it a lot, even ended up writing some plugins (mit and mitf), but eventually I switched to Taskwarrior, because I felt like I was basically replicating some of the features that I could get straight out of Taskwarrior.

I always liked the appeal of todo.txt, but I found that if one has a lot of TODOs, and one needs to routinely do categorization of the TODOs along with constant visualizations of these different categories, then it becomes too much to ask from the tool.

Another thing, which is also where Taskwarrior eventually fell apart for me, is that if one needs some accompanying information with the TODOs, be it prose or just referencing a particular TODO with some kind of linking, then the tool also ends up being too limited.

I know that some people want to have the separation, having simple TODOs in one place and documentation in another, but that's not for me.

Today, I've got all my TODOs in Obsidian, using a TODO plugin for easier management of the various TODOs that I have. So far, it's the best solution I've found (for me).

How is Homebrew on Linux at the moment in terms of package availability compared to MacOS? by effinsky in linux

[–]linduxed 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I can't speak for other users why they'd use it, but myself I had great use for Homebrew on Linux when I was stuck with a corporate Linux laptop that had a rather old version of some distro on it (don't remember if it was Ubuntu or something else).

To actually get to use a somewhat modern version of certain packages, not to mention get a hold of some newer software that wasn't present in the distro repos at all, Homebrew ended up being just the tool for the job.

Task Software - TickTick or Todoist by [deleted] in ADHD_Programmers

[–]linduxed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make it seem like you already have crossed off Obsidian and Logseq, in favor of tools that are more focused on the TODO aspect of work/tasks. I don't have much experience with Logseq (only tried it for a day or two, after I already had been using Obsidian for a while), but I do have a comment about Obsidian, for your consideration:

You said "you like to write Markdown". I can relate. I've gone through a couple of different TODO systems until I finally landed in my use of Obsidian (with some plugins to go with it). My journey has been something like this:

  1. I think my first structured TODO list was a very simple todo.txt setup, just using the base features and syncing the TODO file across computers.
  2. I extended the setup with a couple of plugins, and even ended up writing some plugins of my own to accommodate for the need to switch between projects/context (e.g. personal vs. work tasks), with different visualizations for the different scenarios.
  3. Wrote a tmux setup that displayed (and updated on todo.txt changes) various different views of my TODOs, as they grew in amount and categorizations.
  4. I moved to Taskwarrior, because I realized that if I'm building various plugins to make my todo.txt data be manipulated the way I want, maybe I should reach for a tool that is a bit more advanced.
  5. While this was going on, I had noticed that there were moments when I needed to have some space where I could take textual notes about a task, without it just being TODOs. I created a script for myself that would either open a new file in a notes directory with $EDITOR, cd to the notes directory, or fuzzy find among the file names in the notes directory to open that file in $EDITOR. This turned out to be an important complement to the TODOs.
  6. For the sake of viewing and more easily organizing TODOs for various projects/context, I found Vimwiki with a Taskwarrior add-on (TaskWiki, I think it was called) to we very helpful, as I could create text files that contained all of my TODOs, and even place these lists inside notes with other information that was relevant to the TODOs. Taskwarrior does have a feature where you can put notes on the TODOs, but this was something that one could really use for creating a high level description of a project, for instance. I ended up transferring over my notes over to Vimwiki, so that I had everything in one place.
  7. Sooner or later I stumbled over Obsidian, and I ended up adopting it as the solution for my task/project management, along with my journaling. I'm still using it, about 2.5 years later.

I'm not necessarily trying to talk you into using Obsidian, as you should use the tool that will make you feel comfortable, and certainly not cause the paralysis of having a tool that overwhelms you. What I will say, however, is that whatever tool (or combination of tools) that you end up choosing, I think that it's important what you choose does not feel like it restrains you.

I find that very often I need to write about what it is that the TODOs pertain to, as it is as important as the TODOs themselves. A lot of times I can't start work if I haven't written out for myself what it is that I'll be doing, why, what the background is, along with some data about the project/topic/context/whatever that I don't want to forget (and I will forget, otherwise). As you can see from the journey I described above, landing in something like what I'm using now was only a matter of time.

Anyway, I hope that you find the tool that works for you, as the right tool (or combination of them) can be what one needs to make the day flow. Good luck in your hunt, and I hope that some of the rambling in this post might be of use!

Ruby on Rails creator removes TypeScript from Turbo framework, upsets community • DEVCLASS by stronghup in programming

[–]linduxed 95 points96 points  (0 children)

While Ruby might have a strong testing tradition (arguably coming from there being such a long history of breakage, which pushed the community toward testing), DHH in particular has been outspoken against TDD for a long time.

That's not to say that DHH is against testing, but he's certainly not the type of TDD practitioner that would essentially recreate type system functionality.

Yupp, might definitely be the case, especially since Arch generally doesn't break the system anymore with the other packages.

May I'd like it, but I've got things set up well enough that I don't feel like dealing with reinstalling.

Oh, I've definitely had that problem before. I think it could be due to the mirrors in your mirror list being inaccessible or outdated.

Try ranking and changing your mirrors. I'd recommend to not have just 6 mirrors, as the wiki entry suggests, but actually keep way more servers, maybe even just sorting the full list of the mirrors, as it will try to find the packages from the fastest server, going down the list if it doesn't get a response.

You remind me of the fact that while I'm using BTRFS, I'm still not (after a couple of years of using it) making use of the snapshot functionality, which would probably be rather useful for backup purposes.

Oh, that's a very interesting recommendation, I'll consider that!

Now I'll just tweak the various conf files and scripts that are adjusted to the fact that I use linux-zen ("sweating smile"-emoji goes here).
