Hi, I'm sbird! I like programming and am interested in Astrophysics and all things space. I also have a hobby of photography.

  • Does anyone have a good suggestion for a markdown note organiser?

  • Does Vim have any live markdown preview or plugins that enable that? If it does that would be quite interesting

  • I don't think Vim has a way to show all my notes in one place, or any way to organise notes? (unless it does, you never know)

    Also, Vim-based editors have steep learning curves. It would be cool to learn how to use it, but I want to explore other options before I fall into the rabbit hole

  • Does anyone have a good suggestion for a markdown note organiser?

    Jump

  • Alternatively, you could suggest an Android markdown editor that does create a folder structure and looks as good as Quillpad (and hence can be used with Obsidian or similar)

    Quillpad is hard to best for me though...

  • If you were able to magically learn any language that nobody speaks in your region, what would it be?

  • Oh, sign language could be a good one!

  • Installing EndeavourOS, should I use btrfs or ext4?

    Jump

  • well too late for than I guess. It's fine though

  • Installing EndeavourOS, should I use btrfs or ext4?

    Jump

  • wait should I use systemd-boot (default in EndeavourOS) or grub bootloader?

    edit: After a quick search, it looks like it doesn't really matter. I will go with systemd-boot

  • Installing EndeavourOS, should I use btrfs or ext4?

    Jump

  • Oh no, internet people are disagreeing!

  • Study by NASA claims that non-biological processes "don't fully explain" the abundance of organic compounds in Martian mudstone

    Jump

  • If this turns out to be extraterrestials, then hooray! If it's some unknown non biological process, then we might be a bit dissapointed, but it's still pretty cool!

  • Installing EndeavourOS, should I use btrfs or ext4?

    Jump

  • Noted. But then why does Fedora ship with btrfs then, given that they are catering to a mainstream audience?

  • (cross post, SOLVED) Using rsync between btrfs internal and exFAT external SSD, incompatibilities due to lack of symlinks support on exFAT

    Jump

  • Yes, doing a tar file does work! Thanks person!

  • (cross post, SOLVED) Using rsync between btrfs internal and exFAT external SSD, incompatibilities due to lack of symlinks support on exFAT

    Jump

  • Also, what flags shoukd I use for the tar command? Would it just be -cvf, or do I need -p (for permissions: would these work after a reinstall?) and -z (for compression)?

  • (cross post, SOLVED) Using rsync between btrfs internal and exFAT external SSD, incompatibilities due to lack of symlinks support on exFAT

    Jump

  • Wait, should I use just tar or include -g for compression (.tar vs .tar.gz)

  • (cross post, SOLVED) Using rsync between btrfs internal and exFAT external SSD, incompatibilities due to lack of symlinks support on exFAT

    Jump

  • Oh yeah, it looks like using a tar archive would retain symlinks. I will try that once I figure out how to use the tar command

  • (Update: properly solved now!) When using rsync to backup my /home folder to an external 1TB SSD, I run out of space, how??

    Jump

  • I have cross posted to a Linux community. Thank you so much for all your help :DDDD

  • (Update: properly solved now!) When using rsync to backup my /home folder to an external 1TB SSD, I run out of space, how??

    Jump

  • YIKES, I found that .local is around 30GB on my system ssd, over 50GB in the external SSD. Much of that is due to Steam and Kdenlive. I can try uninstalling Steam...

  • (Update: properly solved now!) When using rsync to backup my /home folder to an external 1TB SSD, I run out of space, how??

    Jump

  • That makes a lot of sense. I can't reformat the external SSD though, since it has a bunch of other files and needs to be used by my family (who are mostly Windows users)

  • I'm assuming that Filelight count file size differently, and I will be trusting the result from dolphin more
