jarfil,

+1 for Zim Wiki. Write down all the process, document with concise high level explanations and keywords, then use the search function.

I also add a settings file to all my bashrc:

gist.github.com/jarfil/da3a5a45bf10e1803d18

It’s a mix of some aliases from across several distros, some from as far back as 4DOS and a part for Cygwin, a somewhat complex prompt colorizer that highlights remote/local and root/user shells, and some other stuff that’s piled up over the years.

jarfil,

I’ve found Joplin to be “acceptable” to share notes from mobile. When sharing through a shared drive, it saves each note as a separate markdown file, so it technically is greppable plain text, my only gripe is it puts all the files in a single dir. I think it can also import them, or you could add notes directly to the dir.

Over time, I’ve migrated most of my KB to some sort of markdown: Zim Wiki, DokuWiki, Joplin.

I still have some locked up in MediaWiki dumps, probably should spin one up and migrate it all.

Systemd-Free Immutable Distro Nitrux 2.9.1 Is Out Powered by Liquorix Kernel 6.4 (9to5linux.com)

Nitrux uses OpenRC instead of systemd, unlike most mainstream distros. It also features the Liquorix kernel, described as “an enthusiast Linux kernel designed for uncompromised responsiveness in interactive systems, enabling low latency in A/V production, and reduced frame time deviations in games.”...

jarfil,

Systemd is not monolithical, it just happens that it’s made of elements optimized to work well together, instead of running everything through different text parsers when “mixing and matching” random daemons.
