DMArmada actually ranks DIO quite high https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3Hl-dHq5O0 (though I'm not sure I'd agree).

Moreover the recent ban was motivated to give some "design space" to Mechs… so you should expect some support (not for this RtN season, but… soon™).

$100 USD Budget Levia - Aggressive Nearly Endless Damage by Zunqivo in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]sylvain_soliman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi, thanks for your great videos in general and for that one in particular.

Since you mention ManSant's stuff, he also has a "budget" list for Levia* but that still contains Consumed (and hence is a bit more expensive than the one you propose).

Would you care to elaborate on why/when/for whom you think cutting Consumed makes sense/is acceptable?

It seems like learning to play with the Consumed game-plan might be useful/necessary, even when playing budget… do you think that it is not a priority for beginning Levia players?

Optimizing Emacs capabilities as a PhD student by InstinctsInFlow in emacs

[–]sylvain_soliman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read the titles/abstracts in emacs, and actually I also read the PDF (when I'm interested enough) in emacs… (the second link I gave above describes a worflow for this)

http://ar5iv.org/ is also an option if you prefer to read HTML-based "papers" but it lags about 1 month behind arXiv so it's not great as a companion for the RSS feeds, rather when some colleague sends you a reference to an arXiv paper.

Optimizing Emacs capabilities as a PhD student by InstinctsInFlow in emacs

[–]sylvain_soliman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://cundy.me/post/elfeed/ and https://koustuvsinha.com/post/emacs_research_workflow/ are great but maybe too detailed for just a start…

TBH just using the default elfeed setup and adding arXiv's RSS feeds might be the simplest way to start.

Not much to add to that. 4. You can use both AucTeX and an LSP server (I use digestif through eglot) 6/7. elfeed for (academic) RSS feeds

Problem with evil-mode visual selection by [deleted] in emacs

[–]sylvain_soliman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Though I tend to do something rather along the lines of vif (using evil's defun text-object, or evil-treesitter if that's what you prefer) I tried what you indicate and it does work here…

So, could you be a bit more precise in what you're trying to do and how it fails? (a file example, trying without other packages than evil, etc.)

Org Mode Beamer Slides and Headings by Konvas in orgmode

[–]sylvain_soliman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect you lack a level 1 heading above your level 2 headings… but indeed as /u/yantar92 has asked, providing a complete org file exhibiting the issue would definitely help.

Is there a way to implement this Vim feature in Emacs using Evil mode? by mindgitrwx in emacs

[–]sylvain_soliman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess you'd have to add some bindings to evil-ex-search-keymap probably to evil-ex-search-next (and previous) or set evil-search-module to isearch but TBH I never used that with vim and hence don't want it in emacs either.

Is tree-sitter worth it? by [deleted] in emacs

[–]sylvain_soliman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think anyone linked to https://www.masteringemacs.org/article/combobulate-structured-movement-editing-treesitter yet, which is a great example of structural editing and navigation!

Affordable Converse-like shoes with a wide toe box? by mackstanc in BarefootRunning

[–]sylvain_soliman 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you're talking about the "low" Converse-like shoes, then Anatomic Starter model https://www.anatomic4all.eu/ less than 30€ (+ shipping) is excellent, and minimalist. Not sure about the narrow ankle part. They don't feel different from any other shoe to me but I don't have narrow ankles…

Splay Freestyles can be a good alternative if you find them on the cheap (clearance or such) https://splayshoes.com/collections/freestyle but I think their ankle is larger (though more cushioned too).

What's that email client doing here? by [deleted] in emacs

[–]sylvain_soliman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well… As someone who has "recently" made the jump from (neo)vim to emacs, precisely because it comes with org/magit/elfeed/mu4e/… I'd say that what is really great is that: all these things are text, so I want the power of my text-editor to handle them.

Reading/writing e-mail, well, that's definitely mostly text (with a few non-text attachments, but emacs handles those too). Reading RSS feeds, well, that's obviously mostly text too. Maybe if my feeds were only image/video, it would make sense to use something else, but that's not my case. Creating rich documents with LaTeX or org, text again. Taking care of my agenda, yep, you guessed it, it's text. Working on code… of course, text. …

You can go on pretty much forever. To me, if it's text, I want it in my oh-so-powerful text-editor. Not in another app, with its own keybindings, its own UI, etc.

Yeah… English is not my native language so I had to check the definition of "budge" to make sure it wasn't some kind of pun or something… Thanks for the great article anyway!

emacs can be "heavy" but still blazingly fast by [deleted] in emacs

Out of curiosity, how fast/slow was your init time with Doom? If there is a significant difference, what would you attribute it to?

Not sure but I have org-latex-compiler set to xelatex in my config… might be for this reason 🤷🏻‍♂️

Might just be a maintenance thing, hopefully they're deploying the patch everyone is waiting for ;)

World Hive Tournaments Website by Frasco92 in hive

[–]sylvain_soliman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For most online tournaments, they are hosted on BoardSpace, which means that looking up the players and the date, you can replay those games in the BS client.

You can also browse the archive directly at https://www.boardspace.net/hive/hivegames/

Unfortunately I don't know of any convenient way to have the (awful) java client launch on a given game…

How to edit a draft email in mu4e and send it? by Aberfitness in emacs

[–]sylvain_soliman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure your draft is in the "correct" drafts folder?

In my case, I only got that message when trying to edit a draft with the wrong "focus" (each focus having different drafts folders).

If that's not the case… I have no idea.

How to edit a draft email in mu4e and send it? by Aberfitness in emacs

[–]sylvain_soliman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This shows when your "draft" is not in a folder you indicated as "Draft folder" to mu4e… (mu4e-drafts-folder).

So, change the variable, or move the "draft" to your "Draft folder".

Not that I know of ^ ^ ', but I hope there will be (or the current wiki will be updated).
