Same here. Pinch zooming is now my best friend though.

Great reference. Thanks for that. I’m reading it right now and it’s pretty good!

Several options:

• Master PDF Editor, version 4 is free (and in AUR);
• PDF Arranger, good for bulk edits;
• jPdfTweak, a veritable swiss knife of PDF editing;
• jPDFBookmarks, the best for editing bookmarks;
• Briss, for bulk cutting PDFs;
• Krop, also for cutting, but less flexible.

I had many issues since the upgrade. After getting tired of hunting them down individually, my one-time solution was to nuke my old configs and simply start anew. Fresh home, .config, .local.

Don’t get me started. The thesis, antithesis, synthesis is Hegelian only in the sense that Marx was a leftist Hegelian. For that historical dialectical movement is actually a Marxists’ material reinterpretation of Hegel’s teleology of the Absolute.

Yes, you could argue that Marx is simply Hegel under a different guise, and that thesis, antithesis, synthesis is just an explicit reformulation of Hegel’s ontological dialectics. But then you might as well say that the whole western contemporary philosophical tradition is in some sense Hegelian as every known philosopher since has been trying to overcome Hegel. Which, in some sense, is true.

In any case, this will only prove the Hegelian fanboy point: aufhebung, bitches!

For life. That is. If you’re non-Hegelian.

Otherwise you become a kind of know-it-all as anything and everything that is raised for or against your Hegelian Weltanschauung is necessarily ontologically subsumed into the historically inherently determined dialectical self-manifesting and self-fulfilling recognition of one’s own liberty which is nothing other than the unavoidable individual instantiation of the greater collective coming to terms conscience of the Absolute. Aufhebung, bitches!

I use both htop and btop—depending on the mood. htop is less prettier, but more reliable. But sometimes I want pretty and I go with btop. top is where I draw the line. It’s too nerdy for me.

Well, he gave two of them away.

I would say you’re actually witnessing the very real phenomenon of language-drift. Languages evolve for a billion reasons, but there’s no right or wrong state of language.

That’s why we distinguish between language, dialect, idiolect, sociolect. Each bearer of language is also a producer of language. Their version is just theirs, in whatever many ways that makes that version unique.

(Check linguistics to better understand this process of language-drifting )

You’re not wrong. Why would you? Either works or not. You said it yourself, it’s work-related. The rest you could probably work around them if sufficiently motivated.

Logseq user here too.

However, for a quick, transitory note, I use Kate or, more recently, Xpad. Only then I transcribe the content to Logseq. Why?

Because while Logseq is great as an outliner and for network thinking, it’s as graceful and agile as an elephant.

The gist of what I’m saying is: for now, and for me (hardware might be playing a role here, but I don’t think so) Logseq is a good note database. For quick typing, I have to use something else.

Vegan when eating, Arch Linuxing when computing, communist when sharing, capitalist when investing, …

The list knows no end. Why not just say what’s appropriate for each particular circumstance?

For arch Linux, there’s Topgrade. All there, in just one command. All. There. Official repos, AUR, even firmware upgrades.

Here’s my alias to update the whole system. It includes fetching the fastest mirrors, topgrade, and cleaning the update’s packages cache. Tailor it to your own needs.

alias update='sudo fetchmirrors -q -s 5 -v -c PT && yes | topgrade -c -y --no-retry --disable gem --disable vim --disable emacs --disable gem --disable sdkman --disable rustup --disable cargo --disable remotes && sudo paccache -rk 0'

Thanks for that link. I didn’t know disroot hosted Jitsi.

For others in this thread, here’s a list of Jitsi instances: https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/community/community-instances/

Read as Law Enforcement Officer. And I was, huh? Then it hit me. Ah, the zodiac…

Thanks for posting this. It’s a good reminder I’ve got to install thunderbird.

How? I’m asking in behalf of a friend.
