help needed testing org-remark’s new nov-mode () support https://github.com/nobiot/org-remark/issues/66

“The dev branch contains a lot of refactoring. I have been trying my best to make this change as smooth as possible for existing Org-remark users. I believe there is no break changes in the eye of users. My tests have been good so far. My old notes file work with no adjustments.”

How many more of these stories are needed to make people realize they need to leave X and make it irrelevant?

[…] While X does have a policy around sharing private information, the company’s terms of service on March 20 did not mention a policy related to outing the identity of an anonymous user, and Benarroch did not respond to a request for clarification. On March 21, after WIRED published this story, X updated its privacy policy to specifically prohibit posting the ”the identity of an anonymous user, such as their name or media depicting them.”

This configuration worked fine so far, and I'm not sure what has changed.

When I disable WG everything is accessible, so I'm assuming that's waht's messing up routing somehow.

I really like the automatic window handling feature in prot’s new dired-preview, which automatically previews the file at point in a side window https://git.sr.ht/~protesilaos/dired-preview

oatmeal, to orgmode
@oatmeal@emacs.ch avatar

#orgmode I think this might be useful when tracking tasks in #orgroam files and not having to worry about how many there are, at least theoretically.

This package aims to dynamically update the =org-agenda-files= variable by appending/deleting a candidate org file when it is saved. This limits the number of files to visit when building the agenda. The agenda buffer thus builds faster.

As far as I'm concerned, the jury is still out on TopSpace, but the more I use it, the more I think it makes sense... esthetically though it looks better with line-numbers off.

"TopSpace is an Emacs minor mode that lets you display a buffer's first line in the center of a window instead of just at the top. This is done by automatically drawing an upper margin/padding above line 1 as you recenter and scroll it down."

I wish would have a clear and consistent direction, and commit to it. Discontinuing services like Mozilla Location Services () is disappointing, and very google-like. IMHO developing privacy-respecting alternatives to existing commercial APIs should be precisely where their focus lies considering how quickly they’re loosing market share with ... 🤷🏽‍♂️

[…] Developers and 3rd-party projects that use to detect a users’ location, such as the freedesktop.org location framework , which is used by apps like Maps and Weather, have only a few months left to continue using the service.

I'm not a big person myself (over my head most of the time 🙃​) but I enjoy reading Mati Shemoelof's poetry and essays. He self identifies as an Arab-Jew writer, poet, activist, author, and editor.

He was born and raised in Haifa, Israel, but for a while now based in . As he is very prolific, I guess I can't really label him, but one theme that caught my eye on his personal site was what he calls "hybrid identities" https://mati-s.com

This is from a piece he wrote for Haaretz (somewhat ironic, since Haaretz, before it became a "liberal" and "progressive" daily newspaper, was really anything but... especially in its strong bias against Arab-Jews, which its editors now over-compensating for).

The demand for full assimilation has always scared me. I’ve never had a talent for mastering other languages, and my writing talent has been my saving grace, allowing me to invent my own syntax in different forms of the art of writing. When I immigrated to Berlin, I knew that I wouldn’t abandon my beloved language, and in 2019 I published my first bilingual poetry book, “Baghdad | Haifa | Berlin.” It was one of the first books published after the to be written by a non-Ashkenazi Hebrew writer living in Berlin.

@histodons Hi guys, I'm looking for information about people who were present at the 1st Palestinian declaration of independence and the establishment of the short-lived All-Palestine Government in Gaza in September 1948, including events before and after. Could be testimonials, diaries, memoirs, photos, news repots etc., in English, Arabic, Spanish, French, Dutch. Thanks!

merging local untracked files with remote branch... what is the recommended way of doing this? I always get a small heart attack when I realize I committed and pushed new files from my laptop, which already exist but are not tracked on my desktop PC. I'd like to merge the remote changes into the with the locally, yet untracked, files... should I stage and commit on the desktop and then pull/merge/resolve... or...

Build your own with ... as a split frame, where every window has a buffer with one of 's timelines, tags etc. Leveraging Emacs' abilty to further split w a window hichever way one might prefer. I set this as a seperate tab, to which I can switch when I need to.

Drafting and researching in emacs, while tooting or searching from the same UI, is incredibly efficient. The second screenshot shows 's built-in lookup service used to search the thing-at-point/selection from within a mastodonel buffer, as I would from any buffer.

really like the second feature offered, which is the ability to drag the buffer name from the bufferbin sidebar to the desired window. Imagine having multiple window split and just dragging a buffer into one of them. If there’s a time to use a mouse with emacs, that might be it 🫢 https://github.com/blueridge-data/bufferbin

@bookstodon /science/religion: Am I a Monkey?

Loved how Nidhal Guessoum quickly shuts down a lame attempt by a religious scholar to appropriate Bjorn Kurtén's friendly title "Not from the Apes", of which he might have only read the title.

... also interesting was that surveys show that Americans and Saudis without college degrees are equally skeptical of the theory, while more educated Saudis than Americans reject it.

Thought it'd be a nice anecdote to start off a discussion about Islam's view of through the perspective of a couple of medieval scholars for a paper I need to write....

great addition to emacs’ and usability, especially for those who prefer a more subtle approach than a total look overall provided by package like org-modern and others, which might clash with their theme of choice and opinionated frameworks like and similar https://protesilaos.com/codelog/2023-06-03-emacs-spacious-padding/
