  • Do I need a plugin manager ?
    Hello, I want use nvim because is very cool, but I don't understand if it's mandatory to have a plugin manager or not. I want install a markdown-preview plugin but as I see on the readme I can use only plugin managers to install the plugin. If I scroll down the readme I find the install instrusction "by hand". But there is written that I have to add:. Source: 6 months ago
  • Do you take notes with screenshots?
    Personally, I take notes in Markdown. As for screenshots, I link them accordingly, saving them in either a $HOME/Pictures/ directory or in my current working directory for easy access. I also use Markdown-Preview while writing and editing so I can view the rendered notes (if necessary) in my default web browser. Source: 12 months ago
  • Personal Knowledge Management Graph Visualization Tools for Neovim
    I 100% agree, its just that I couldnt find anything better. There are some markdown renderers (like this) and many utils to manage a zettel or other notes (check these), but the graph part seems to be the most evasive one (or maybe I overlooked it). Source: 12 months ago

  • Installing packages without an internet connection?
    It seems according to pkgsrc.org that pkgin might follow the PKG_PATH environment variable. You're supposed to set PKG_PATH="http://cdn.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/$(uname -p)/$(uname -r|cut -f '1 2' -d.)/All/", and according to uname(1), -p gives the processor architecture and -r gives the operating system [kernel] release.

  • Slackware 15.0
    I still have a Slackware install that runs some really old stuff I have. I remember working at AN ISP in the 90s and slack was are secure distro. All the important stuff (authentication, configs, etc.) were stored and served from our 'slack pool'. Funny part is now I do a very basic Slackware install that setup pkgsrc (https://pkgsrc.org) on it so I can really experience the best and worst of times! - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
