💻 Kernel It doesn't run as smooth on all my devices. I wish the graph view had some more options (showing tags and allowing more sorting). Also I don't like that there is a separate edit and a preview mode, when I'm taking lecture notes I want to be able to see inserted figures immediately. What do you think?
🍁 John J. Ah, interesting. I'm still in the early stages with it, to be honest. Runs really well on Linux, from my experience. I haven't really used the graph functionality much at all, and I didn't even take in that other mode distinction; pretty much working exclusively with text right now. I came to Obsidian as a means of building a zettelkasten; it, and my process, are both very much still in their infancy.

🍁 John J. Anyone working with Hashicorp's software (e.g., Terraform, or Vault)?

🐧 Aditya I think that orgzly, which is an android implementation of the emacs org-mode deserves a mention here
🍁 John J. Ooo, cheers for that; wasn't aware. I want to start looking at this, and Android compatibility has pushed it up the To Do list. :-)

🎲 Jamie Currently using org-roam in Emacs. It's pretty good, though I think it would make more sense if I was also more invested in Emacs outside of org-roam.
🍁 John J. Ah, interesting. That's exactly where I would be as well, I'd imagine. (I've been considering it, but haven't started, and am much more comfortable with vi.)

💻 Kernel Currently experimenting with non-linear notetaking using Obsidian.md. It's the free version of Roam.
🍁 John J. Me too. What do you think so far? I'm very happy that spellchecking has been included recently. (Even if it is just a single dictionary.)

Gil vimmers aren't interested in emacs.
🍁 John J. Not many; agreed. But I am considering it: org-mode integration has piqued my interest. (And now this, maybe.)

🥝 Mr I like the word choice here - Even when I don't want to add something significant to the conversation, I may want to say "I agree" aka "I like this" and it feels impolite to leave the conversation hanging. Liking a comment in some ways is like saying "yes, I hear you." otherwise you may feel that your input was lost to the void.
🍁 John J. Are you all Canadian? ;-) Seriously, I very much identify with all this. Even when it's awkward -- e.g., using hearts for this ack/nod -- it's still far more comfortable than leaving it all to the void. :-)

⌨️ Joseph 1984! I'm about half way through.
🍁 John J. Nice. I should read more of his stuff. Only read that, and Animal Farm ages ago, in school.

Ganesh Khade Tea or Coffee?
🍁 John J. Coffee. A ritual. Love them both. Grind the beans, by hand. Breathe in the bloom. Let the press linger. Divine.

🌳 Arthur Segalas Both. I was there because internet was down at my place. Noisy and crowded, I don't get how people can work in such places.
🍁 John J. Me either, but I know at least one person who buys tracks to replicate it as a work environment... in their remote holiday cottage on the Scottish coast. Humans are strange.

🌪️ Angelino Desmet No, I do run GIMPS (Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search) 24/7 though: mersenne.org. No luck yet :( :p I used to run SETI@Home as well, but they stopped the project. How long have you been running F@H?
🍁 John J. Neat: hadn't heard about GIMPS. Yes, wasn't that long ago that they shut down SETI; a mate of mine had been running their software since the early 90s. I started folding around when lockdown started here in the UK; mid March, I guess. 280 work units to date. :-)

🌳 Arthur Segalas Sitting in a cafe, working on my laptop. I hate it.
🍁 John J. The cafe or the laptop? Or work? Man, I haven't been to a cafe in a _long_ time.
