In the middle of the desert you can say anything you want
date -s 13:17:50 also works. It’s more simple than I remembered.
removed border around all windows, we’ll see how I live with it and whether I need it. In work mode it might get confused with similar windows, in play mode it shouldn’t matter. We’ll see.

Anki’s manual says a lot about importing raw cards – and it’s much easier and more flexible to do this than I thought. I might drop anki-vim completely, or write something more minimalistic.
Decided to take a look again at my Bachelor’s thesis and do a nice rewrite in Python3 of the main code.
The date command can take STRINGS, which as mentioned in the man pages can be quite free-form. I moved my system clock back 1h with sudo date -s "1 hour ago". Wow.
For the first time got 100% on D3B! And in general even though the results aren’t the most important thing in D3B they do actually motivate quite a lot. Keeping records and gamification for the win!

Is a python module to save secrets.
python -m keyring [get/set] for help.
To be able to change backlight.
sudo gpasswd -a sh video
clight -b radeon_bl0 --day-temp=6000 --night-temp=2000 would be nice, but sadly my webcam is covered. But it might be a nice replacement for redshift, sometime.

This tutorial and extension could separate about 30% of the pictures with the default settings. Margins (and margins to the sides of the image!) are important.
is done by putting the .scm file to /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts/
This tutorial is freaking awesome.
Given the number of images I was dealing with manually configuring each one was not an option. What I wanted was a service that would, given my image collection, just print me a photo album of approx 6x4 images, in chronological order, two per page, with a caption below each detailing the image file name and the date taken.
It provides a .tex album file and a Python2 file which reads the Exif data and creates a photos.tex which gets included in the main album file.
scanimage (SANE) is a “a library and a command-line tool to use scanners”.
sudo scanimage -L to see the list of scanners, then to scan (for me also with sudo for some reason):
sudo scanimage --device "xerox_mfp:libusb:002:004" --format=png > name.png
Added a date format to my command line alias:
alias le="ledger -f ~/p/f/l/ledger.txt --strict --date-format '%Y/%m/%d'" for my date formats.
Also to represent bought currencies, I think the way to do it is:
2019/02/25 Exchanged 100$ for 74.81 at XXX
Assets:Cash:Wallet E74.91 @ $100
Assets:Cash:Fund:USD
* It would be interesting to do an implementation of [this xkcd](https://xkcd.com/2112/) using data from Twitter with 'intensity' defined as 'more or less interaction that the norm for this user'
To exclude tasks of a certain project, the syntax for the filter is project.not:projectname.
Also added a new report for tasks which will never be finished – anki, cleaning, basic org etc., but that I still want to track with timewarrior. t m now returns me all such tasks.
I find myself grepping through the dict.cc raw file, I might build a script to do that for me. But I often need to find a word with the condition that it’s the first thing on a line, instead as partof a bigger sentence.
^ helps. /^Dru gives me the lines which start with “Dru”.

Deleted VK account. Saw another Verteidigung. Backed up my Android. Finished a ton of small things that I was postponing for weeks.
Using this tutorial:
adb backup -apk -shared -all -f backup-file.adb
To restore: adb restore backup-file.adb
-M gives monthly transactions.
As I was looking for ideas for small businesses, I found this nice website with small easy microwave recipes: https://www.minmaxmeals.com/recipes/garlic-oatmeal/, and I’ll try today the linked one. In general having such a database of go-to dishes would be quite nice, because I forget about mine often.
For categories, I again used this nice tutorial.
When outputting posts, {%raw%}{{post.excerpt}}{%endraw%} either takes the first paragraph or a separator.
The separator can be set in config.yml: `excerpt_separator:
`
published: false in the front matter. I like this more than the official draft mechanism.
A really elegant way to delete the tags surrounding something:
yitvatp
Tag blocks *tag-blocks* For the "it" and "at" text objects an attempt is done to select blocks between matching tags for HTML and XML. But since these are not completely compatible there are a few restrictions. The normal method is to select auntil the matching . For "at" the tags are included, for "it" they are excluded. But when "it" is repeated the tags will be included (otherwise nothing would change). Also, "it" used on a tag block with no contents will select the leading tag.
Just discovered this randomly after a typo. @@ repeats the last @-macro I used. This will save me really a lot of time!
In this article, this nice way has been mentioned:
def safe_division(*, number, divisor, ignore_overflow, ignore_zero_division):
It forces all arguments after * to be named during call:
>>> safe_division(number=10**1000, divisor=3**-100, ignore_overflow=True, ignore_zero_division=False)
Add all the new English and German vocabulary to anki, finally.

(Can jekyll and/or vim do smileys? Apparently it can if you enter the Unicode value of the emoji directly
Test:

WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO
Also I still can just paste them.
Okay, then behold.)

I still have no idea how that happened, but it’s quite interesting. We’ll see if and how that continues.

And again, for unicode characters inside vim:
<C-v>U1F60A<esc>
Also, for the table above, to make it align right, I had to change the tabs to spaces. Select and :retab.
