@klaatu Listening to episode 336 right now. I rarely use markdown except for emacs org mode. Emacs has the ability to export your org markdown files to HTML, standard markdown, LaTeX, and .odf. It's great for when you want to quickly create the skeleton of your document.LaTeX is another good choice for document preparation. It does have somewhat of a learning curve but that's where TeX "IDEs" like kile and lyx come in. Once you get the hang of it TeX is no more difficult than HTML

@klaatu i was comparing the learning curve moreso than the actual implementation. XSL can be frustrating but my first languages were web langs so they hold a special place in my heart.One thing to note with LaTeX: you might not need a full texlive install (like 20 gigs), but if you try to \usepackage{foo} and the foo package isn't installed the latex compiler will complain or sometimes completely fail

Do you think Aleister Crowley had a cum eating fetish or was he just trying to scare off people who weren't hardcore enough to eat cum for magical purposes?

Suggest some good DOS games that I should play. I've already played through Doom, Quake, and Duke Nukem 3D so don't suggest these ones lol

@Deimyrz drama and chaos are related. Everything is chaos and drama is just the social manifestation of it. Either way, I love gossip and drama as long as it doesn't involve me

@klaatu Episode 337 is really getting me thinking about how much time I spend playing quake instead of doing something useful. For a few weeks now I've been trying to figure out a way to track my productivity. I'll be sure to check out the acct commands, but I'll likely settle on some hastily written script. Systemd is nice and all, but if I want a time tracking program that works for most UNIX like systems it'll probably involve grabbing xorg window titles, cron jobs, .csv "databases" and R for processing the whole mess. If this ever materialises I'll be sure to let the fediverse know.Either way, I enjoy the slackware package episodes quite a lot. Sometimes the tool I need already exists on my system and I just need to be made aware of it via Klaatu

@klaatu for some reason psacct isn't installed by default on debian bullseye/sid, but I installed it and it's pretty interesting, but I found something much more useful for a holistic time tracker. arbtt is an automatic, rule based time tracker written in haskell. Using haskell's package manager, cabal, I installed arbtt. I haven't played with it too much yet but the example config in the docs seems to be "good enough until I attempt to learn haskell". The project's website is at arbtt.nomeata.deThere's no gui so it truly is a small program that runs in the background with no required init system. Just tack it on to your desktop's autostart script and it'll run in the background Here's a screenshot of my terminal showing it's output. It's been running for 30ish minutes and shows a great breakdown of how long each window is in focus

@a1batross i use firefox on android with 0 issuesLike, it renders html and JavaScript, what else do you need? Google amp sites not working right? Don't use them, it's probably better for your privacy that way

@whiteout @a1batross i'm running addons on firefox mobile. Vimium doesn't really make sense for an on screen keyboard, but ublock and https everywhere works just fine. Addons do work

@klaatu i think it depends on your ideal use case. My ideal is to get a break down of how I spend my day without actually putting any effort into manual tracking. Maybe arbtt has a way to add comments in it's config? I'm not sure

@klaatu Feel free to record an episode about it. I'm still a little ways out from podcasting. Either way, the whole point of free software is sharing and it's hard to share when people don't know a program exists. I'm thinking of doing a "software of the week" section so the format should be different enough from a typical HPR software spotlight episode

@klaatu quick question, what do you use for hosting and content delivery and how do you generate rss feeds? I checked the slacker media handbook but I didn't see anything related content distribution. I'm sure a shell script and rsync would work but I don't want to reinvent the wheel if I can use an existing wheel instead

not gonna lie, mormons piss me off. Was talking to this mormon kid today and he denied that the church 1. was ever racist by denying black folks the priesthood until the federal government threatened to revoke their tax exempt status 2. denied that Joseph Smith was a pedophile (his youngest wife was 14) largely plagiarized the book of mormon, was con man, and there is extensive documentation proving this3. Jesus never came to the Americas and the native American civilizations he never visited don't exist in the archeological record4. that the church hates the queer community with a burning passion which leads to extremely high rates of homelessness and suicide rates in Idahoan and Utahan queer teens. Until a few months ago children whose parents were a same-gender couple were forbade from advancing in the church hierarchy5. you clearly have an issue with queer folks because you called them "people who practice gaydom". Like what? sexuality isn't a religion ya fuckerend me please
