It's true lol. I had to install Docker for teaching on my old drive and that instantly maxed out my root partition even when I kept deleting intermediate builds and unused data. Now I have this fun paranoia for all apps :)
just fyi I moved Discord, GIMP, Obsidian, and OBS over to flatpak and my root partition jumped from 19GB to 23GB. I'm kinda sad about it tbh
It looks like you're right. Uninstalling the deb and then installing the flatpak consumed an additional 2GB on my root, but I have a handful of other electron-based apps that are mildly obnoxious snaps, and migrating them might help amortize that cost
I haven't tried flatpacks yet. How do they compare to, say, snaps in terms of storage/redundancy?
It's a way to force an 18 year old into a life of indentured servitude under the guise of "financial assistance" by simply clicking accept on a couple online forms, only for 40% of them to end up working jobs that don't require a college degree in the first place.
Thanks for the suggestion! I use emacs, although only from the terminal via emacs-nox or emacs-snapshot-nox packages. I haven't used orgmode other than some testing related to other comments, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for. My main criterion is I want everything right in front of me when I open the terminal and start working, not in a separate program or interface.
Definitely RE for me. I couldn't sleep after the first time I saw a crimson head. The sharks were terrifying too
You're welcome homie ❤️ I just want to make sure I let everybody know how much I appreciate the awesome community
I heard it in a coffee shop just the other day. Several customers and employees complained and the manager skipped the song all in about 30 seconds
Thanks for suggesting khal! I actually just stumbled across it while trying to find something that does exactly what I want. My only complaint with khal is that I want a todo list with khal as well. I have a tendency to forget important things, and it would be great if I could throw things onto a list that doesn't have times or dates, but gets displayed regardless. Do you know if that's possible with khal? For example, either above or below my schedule on the right column I'd have a todo list.
Sorry, I forgot to get back to this. It looks like it's possible to get something that fits better with the ?2n option. See https://github.com/chubin/wttr.in/issues/151
Hi all, I'm working on setting my terminal to display different tasks and information when I login. I have problems with attention and I frequently forget to do important things, so I really need to do this to help myself. I'm aware some of this will cause my terminal to be more slow when I first login. That's fine even if it takes an additional second to login. I have a rough mockup attached in the picture. The mockup uses the pr -Tm command to display my calendar side-by-side with my schedule and todo list, but here's where I'm at:
- Calendar is automated by
ncal -C - Weather is automated using
curl wttr.in/New%20York?0 - Schedule is just a text file at the moment
- Todo is just a text file at the moment
I'm looking to also automate my schedule and todo from the command line, but I don't want to use Google-based tools or tools that connect to an external server in general. I'm looking for terminal-based tools where I can add events to my schedule with descriptions, times, and dates (support for recurring events is a bonus, but maybe not required), and then fetch my daily schedule and print it. Does anybody know a good way to handle this part? I could setup a simple database to store and interact with my schedule, but I feel like there has to already be a good tool like that available. However, my searches keeps pulling up things that aren't quite what I want...
Thanks for reading this! I appreciate any advice you have for the Linux side of things.

> INTERCAL is an esoteric programming language which was purposely designed to be confusing and not visually aesthetic. It has two maintained implementations in C-INTERCAL and CLC-INTERCAL. C-INTERCAL's compiler is invoked by the ick command, and CLC-INTERCAL's compiler is invoked by the sick command.
>
> Some highlights of INTERCAL include
> - Programmers must use PLEASE before statements to avoid compile errors due to being insufficiently polite, but not too many PLEASE statements or the compiler will report errors due to being overly polite.
> - Every call to a random number generator will introduce a random chance of the code failing to compile and report E774 RANDOM COMPILER BUG, and this chance to fail increases with the number of random number generator calls.
> - If compiling in INTERCAL-72 mode, the compiler will report E111 COMMUNIST PLOT DETECTED if the programmer uses features that are newer than INTERCAL-72.
>
> The full list of compiler errors and warnings for C-INTERCAL, as well as related documentation, can be found in the intercal/doc/ick.txi file under the "Errors and Warnings" chapter. If you want to quickly scroll through them, each of the entries are preceded by an @ieanchor tag.

Here's the command if you want to run it too. You need the imagemagick package
