Orgmode · @Jason’s Microblog!

Org mode reads my syncbox folder for the agenda.
(syncbox syncs with beorg on the phone via syncthing, so I can see and execute on all my stuff through out the day)
files are open on both the desktop and the phone, and every once in a while syncthing creates a -sync.conflict file and now i have two sets of everything (sometimes 3) (for e.g. tasks.org conflicts and i get, tasks.sync-conflict-20240516-101335.2TWENY.org and tasks.sync-conflict-20240408-041556.2TWENY.org)
for more context, the desktop needs to reigns supreme. i don’t care about the phone. once in a while i go delete the conflicting files and then all is well
i tried hacking org-agenda-file-regexp , but wasn’t successful at asking it to ingore them.

is there a way I can tell org to ignore, files with a certain pattern in my org-agenda directory?

Hello #Emacs and #OrgMode friends, is there a way to insert a deadline *with* time for a task?

for e.g. with:

Buy Book: CSS in Depth, Second Edition, Keith J. Grant  
DEADLINE: <2024-06-10 Mon>

I want the deadline to be

DEADLINE: <2024-06-10 Mon 09:00>

I’m inserting times manually by hand currently. But am I missing an M-x org-some-command-to-insert-date or a handy keyboard shortcut?

I kinda try and do a tiny deep dive everytime I want to use a new facet of #emacs and then make notes for myself.
Thankfully #GavinFreeborn does things exactly like me.
So I have all I need for learning about #OrgMode tables
Roughly 20m. Worth the time if you want to learn too.

Thank you Gavin!

#OrgMode friends, is there a way to show the times I took for a task in my org clock summary itself?

for e.g.

| \\_ 100 Words, Writing Session | | 0:45 | |  
| \\_ Research | | | 0:24 |

i would like to know the actual time ranges in my Research section. what time to what time did i actually work? is this possible?

if not, i think my next best bet is to set :link t and then have these linked down to the actual task. (don’t want to do this though)
