Marp works well if you like Markdown. I cannot, however, speak to things such as transitions (though marp exports to a nice HTML file which includes a PowerPoint-like interface, so I’d imagine it’s possible).

It looked to me to be optional, but yeah I was curious about that too…

This is amazing!

I’m curious why links2 over, say, w3m? It feels like none of the terminal browsers are as nice as they could be these days…

Been looking forward to this for a long time—K-9 Mail is an excellent mail client, but this is one step closer to Desktop/Mobile sync.

I’ve used it for uni on a Linux tablet/convertible and it worked really quite well and has some nice convenient features for note-taking.

What tablet did you use?

If you’re on Wayland, fuzzel just keeps getting better each release.

Wait, so how do we print now?

Love fuzzel—it’s pretty performant, even with a few thousand options to pick from.

I’m very pleased to discover this. I’ve been using this online editor for a while—good to have a local alternative.

i3 and xfce can be combined to achieve a very practical result. Highly recommend. It’s trivial to setup on NixOS, at least.

I’ve been using todo.txt for tasks for about a month now—it’s dead simple, supports all the bells and whistles you mentioned; and, with the topydo CLI, you can very easily make yourself a kanban interface using its columns UI. I sync the files with my iPhone and use Todooo on iOS, which works beautifully.

As for notes, I just write simple text files with my favorite editor. Maintaining complex systems of interconnected notes, I’ve found, most often does not pay off for the enormous time investment required (some specific use cases aside); tags, links, etc. I have all found to be superfluous—any kind of grep integration in the editor is all that’s needed for finding things. I write in either markdown or Typst, because basic Typst is essentially the same as markdown anyway, and because I’ve found it very useful to keep notes in the same format I write longer-form documents in.

Newbie question: does this affect people using systemd-boot? Does anyone use systemd-boot?

Depending on how old the iPod is, you might have some luck installing rockbox firmware on it.

But, in any case, yes, moving your music over will functionally be as if copying it to an external drive.

Anyone using this? I can’t tell what problems it actually solves for the end user.

Chezmoi looks interesting. I’ve just been using xstow.

The people I know in my program (undergrad History) use their computers for little more than Google Chrome (specifically Google’s Office suite), a PDF reader (sometimes also Google Chrome), sometimes Zotero, and sometimes MS Word. We get a lot of Mac’s around here, so one can imagine Microsoft products are not highly relied upon, generally speaking.

Everything’s through the browser nowadays, so I’d say just pick a stable distro, install 2 or three browsers in case something doesn’t work (like Google Docs with Firefox in my experience…), and submit everything as PDF.

Can’t speak much to LibreOffice as I write my papers in Typst (and before that in LaTeX, which got me brownie points with some of the older professors), which I find much faster, easier, and more flexible than WYSIWYG word processors.

Ed is the standard editor.

I used Doom for a while, but it was still slow. I’ve been replacing emacs with more unix-y tools (helix/neovim as editor, yazi for file manager, etc.). I really just miss the design of emacs (the self-documentation, the infinite extensibility, etc.). I hope someday maybe Lem will fill my needs (which I just learned about yesterday).
