The keybinds you can set up in e.g Ranger for navigating or moving files are incredibly fast and easy. Sure you could just use shell commands/aliases etc. but the visual representation of the file system that a TUI provides, I find really useful.

Really want to play this....when it's not £60

Sometimes a dream takes a dark turn and that's usually when I realise that it is in fact a dream. I start to look for an exit and awareness shifts to my physical body eyelids opening as the way out.

Thanks, this worked for me..been bothering me a little while now why I couldn't see my subs etc. 👍

Yeah, in for the late haul. Once the knowledge base and communities build up a bit it'll be great. It'll take some time.. There's still a lot of good searchable information deep in the subreddits.

Beautiful game and.. time for games... it still holds up. Emulate the Amiga version and ignore the rest for the purest experience (FS-UAE/Win UAE). Headphones on :)

True. Fair point. Just suggestions to make YouTube more bearable for the OP.

@sparedwhistle@lemmy.ml the way to to use this is with an org-headline or task. For example you have an org document with "*TODO Write 500 words". When you start the task 'M-x-org-clock-in' whilst your cursor is on the headline and when you finish 'M-x-org-clock-out'. You'll see a timer running in the modeline and It'll take care of the properties for you on completion.

I use Ctrl-w-c (it's on the same side of the keyboard) or space-b-k. I'm sure you could you set your own convienient shortcut, it's Emacs after all.

Use it everyday and you just pick things up over time, you don't need to know everything. Make your terminal pretty colours. Fetishize about keyboards and the simplicity of plain text.

I think it's important to design your system around your own way of thinking/working. Sure, steal and adapt useful ideas from others but with time your system will shape to what you need it to be. Personally I use 3 folders ~/vault ~/vault/journals ~/vault/pages that contain .md and a few .org files. It's all in Dropbox. I use Emacs (with md-roam) & Obsidian (with org plugin) for some cross compatibilty and mobile access. Journals folder is for daily/fleeting notes (an inbox of sorts). Pages are more fleshed out Evergreen or Zettelkasten type notes. I tried PARA but it didn't really work for me...everything can be resurfaced through tags, interlinking and search so I wouldn't get any benefits from that kind of file/folder hierarchy. So to answer the question, the best alternative system is probably one of your own design.
