speaking of i need to poke around for more software...
<midfavila>
i want to see if i can find one of those fancy note organising systems the kids are all on about these days that runs with minimal deps on a local device
<sad_plan>
awk would be naw in this case, and oldawk is nawk
<sad_plan>
midfavila: ive too been using nawk for quite some time now
<sad_plan>
wak should give you no trouble to self host, seeing as its compatible with most awk implentations
<midfavila>
yeah, just want to make sure
<sad_plan>
what kind of note organizing systems are you refering to?
<midfavila>
ive seen them called personal wikis or knowledge management systems. something like emacs' org mode, but standalone, is how it seems to me
<sad_plan>
hm, sounds like vimwiki aswell
<midfavila>
ive written them off as excessive for a long time but i feel like combining that with rsync could be really nice for keeping notes and project ideas and etc organised across devices
<sad_plan>
i have some notes which ive synced with my disk, but its not as accessable as I would like. I suppose using git for this would be acceptable, unless its personal
<midfavila>
yeah the goal is to be entirely offline
<midfavila>
i guess you could use a local version control system with some helper scripts...
<sad_plan>
sounds like something id want myself
<sad_plan>
curious as to why nawk and wak is very close overall, but some of the tests will differ a lot
op_4 has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
op_4 has joined #kisslinux
<sad_plan>
oh, and ive sent a ticket to the company where I bought the gpu, if I didnt say so earlier. fingers crossed my bullshit explenation will end up with me getting a new one :D
<midfavila>
i desperately wish this wasnt written for nodejs
<midfavila>
lua, python, c, c++, almost anything else and it would be perfect for the r01...
<sad_plan>
I get that. I hate when projects is written in some awefull language, when C would be perfectly fine
<sad_plan>
which kinda reminds of me cloc. which is written in perl. theres several similar projects, but theyre all either written in go, rust or something else even more awefull
<midfavila>
idk i feel like python or sepples would be reasonable here
<midfavila>
its a complex project
<midfavila>
really cool too. even with the very limited terminal termux has i was able to find my flat pretty easily
<midfavila>
if you were able to add in some way to interface with a system's GPS/Galileo/etc module and added a simple wayfinding algorithm and stuff you could have a really fucking slick TUI map
<midfavila>
that would honestly be amazing
<midfavila>
as it is, it's useful but still kind of a novelty...
<midfavila>
nothing wrong with novelty but it's so close to being a 10/10
<midfavila>
i would contribute but a) ew node and b) am brainlet
<midfavila>
neat possible alternative to mpd in the future
<midfavila>
alternatively depending on how they already handle files it could be trivial to add support for mpg123/321 and then it would be plenty usable right now...
<sewn>
what do you use
<sewn>
I still use Spotify but I don't really need to
<midfavila>
for audio?
<midfavila>
i use ffmpeg
<sewn>
bra
<sewn>
you mean ffplay
* midfavila
stares at
<midfavila>
did i stutter
<sewn>
how tf do you use ffmpeg to play
<midfavila>
decode it into raw audio data and specify the alsa device for output
<midfavila>
i was using it on the r01 for a while since nothing else worked
<midfavila>
i don't recall the command i used tho lmao
<midfavila>
i'll probably work it out again down the line and stick it in a script
