I am currently on win10 but have been toying with mint and liking it. I intend on fully switching over soon. I have also been toying with the idea of some simple 3D modeling, like making custom parts for projects around my house.

I’m sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I’m sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I’m sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it’s been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one...
Hello everyone! For my bachelor’s thesis, I am making a survey to find out what Solarpunks think of the movement, the genre and the community. I believe Solarpunks are often curious about the thoughts of others in the community, so I think this could be another instance to promote discussion and interesting conversations...
I recently got a Sony prs 600 e reader from 2009. The battery is at the end of its life (It lasts about 3 days with heavy reading, and a couple weeks without reading). No backlight, no Wi-Fi, just an SD card that I can load epub files and small PDFs. The screen is slow and the contrast isn’t the best. The “touch screen” is...

FWIW I was using LogSeq for a while because I wanted a FOSS obsidian equivalent… As I discovered, it isn’t really an equivalent at all, it’s very much it’s own thing. One thing LogSeq really doesn’t do well is long form notes, I tried using it in combination with Zettlr for long form notes, which was good when I was doing my academic and engineering work, but didn’t really fit with my personal notes very well.
I recently decided to try LogSeq and Obsidian together and so far I’m finding it really works well. I treat LogSeq as my daily notepad, I put in my tasks and small thoughts. I use Obsidian for my more permanent, bigger notes about things. My LogSeq graph and Obsidian vault are the same folder, and I have it configured so both use the same date format and assets folder. The only thing I’ve yet to check is if I can use YAML front matter in LogSeq in place of their style of front matter, because they would make the notes fit together much better.
I feel the pain, I also really want it to be open source (and I think it’s funny that they talk about most of the community plugins being open source as a plus, but don’t recognise how that could be a plus for the app as well if they open sourced it).
As for missing bits of LogSeq, I use both LogSeq and Obsidian together. I have my LogSeq graph and Obsidian vault use the same folder, and have them configured so they use the same default folders and date formats. It works quite well for me
I’ve been enjoying my Vivo barefoot shoes. But obviously they’re only really good if you like having a thin sole on the shoe. They have a repair service though so that’s one of the reasons I recommend them.
I hadn’t tried them until I went to one of their shops last year to try them on. I didn’t really expect to like them, but wanted to give it a go and was pleasantly surprised. They are now my favourite, most comfortable shoes (although sometimes I wish they had a slightly thicker sole). It is worth noting that the insole they come with didn’t last very well though (it started to crumple up in the shoe and became uncomfortable) so I replaced it with a cheap regular insole I found online and it made them even more comfortable (a bit more cushioning but still a wide toe box and flexible shoe).
