• How do you record your ideas throughout the day?

  I spend 90% of my time at a Windows keyboard, so use MemPad https://horstmuc.de/wmem.htm as a software version of a spiral-bound notebook. It does literally nothing other than being a stack of notepad pages that you can reorder or search. Source: about 1 year ago

• Dungeons and Dragons Digital Character Sheet and document formatting questions

  If he prefers to maintain plaintext notes somewhere else, the best tool I've found is a version of a sectionable spiral notebook. MemPad does the trick wonderfully. Source: about 2 years ago

• got Linux running on a dell inspiron 8100 antix is the only distro that would show a display and that supported 32bit systems

  All Office programs, and most 'big' editors have outlining modes, but to me the small size is a necessary feature; Unhelpful Linux developers have often suggested that I use emacs in org-mode - but since I need to save 10.000's of files, each together with the creating software, a 600 MB installation is not what I want... I you use windows, take a look at MemPad. Source: about 2 years ago

• What's the Best Wiki for a Self Hosted Home Lab?

  My personal help-file is literally over 9000 pages long, if printed. That is slightly unwieldy in a single text file. I want to keep things as simple as possible, make data-export/migration simple, and (Important!) be sure that the files can be read 30 years from now. So I use MemPad, a simple outliner that saves in a format that can be read by Notebook (or any other text editor) Extraction/export of... Source: about 2 years ago

• UPDATE: After reading 600+ of your comments, here is the updated list of open source Linux programs mostly for beginners (thus mostly gui).

  That looks interesting! The app that keeps me on windows is a small, .txt based, outliner - something that for some strange reason don't seem to exist in the 'nix-sphere. I have tried asking Linux forums for suggestions for a comparable program, but always get '[[REDACTED ]]off' answers... I keep literally thousands of outline files on removable media, and (for archival purposes) all needs to be followed by the... Source: over 2 years ago

• Notes on Emacs Org Mode

  Sorry, but _what exactly_ «it seems to do» from your point of view? My «second brain» now is almost 300Mb of text, pictures, sound files, PDF and other stuff. As I already mentioned, it contains tables, mathematical formulae, sheet music, cross-references, code samples, UML diagrams and graphs in Graphviz format. It is versioned, indexed by local search engine, analyzed by AI assistant and shared between many... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Why I Like Obsidian

  Obsidian is great. For those looking for an open source alternative (or don't want to pay the Obsidian fees for professional usage) check out Logseq: https://logseq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Obsidian 1.5 Desktop (Public)

  For an opensource alternative to Obsidian checkout Logseq (1). I spent a while thinking obsidian was opensource out of my own ignorance and was disappointed when I learned it was not. 1: https://logseq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• How do you track your daily tasks?

  I use logseq to keep journal of my daily work. Source: 5 months ago

• I'm a science student and amateur web dev. Is this the right tool?

  While Emacs and Org mode can certainly be used for this (and, when they can't, you can always inject little python/js scripts in your emacs config to take care of specific things), I'd also recommend you take a look at Logseq. Source: 5 months ago
