organisation stuff 

Well the organising sheet (first image) didn't work out – I didn't use it for a month.

But the "fill in a dot when you successfully do a task" sheet (second image) has been working well

(no image descriptions because I don't have the energy right now, and they're very visual organisation systems)

mastodon bug 

Sometimes, this happens: one post repeats itself into my feed forever, until it's all full up

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz if you already know what you're doing, often arch is easier to use and maintain than ubuntu, but I find it's still a pain.

I use NixOS, but I can only recommend that to people who enjoy configuring their system to be perfect.

I'm unfollowing all non-mutuals for the next while, my timeline is too much right now

useful bash/zsh/fish command you might not know 

If you want to delete an empty folder, you might be tempted to use

rm -r

but this is dangerous - you could delete the wrong folder by accident and loose a lot of files.
Luckily, there's this command:

rmdir

which allows you to delete an empty directory, and will refuse to do anything if it's not empty!

predictable joke 

@dr1ft oh there's this really cool customisation tool, just open up the command line and type

rm -rf ~
