I got around some pesky Firefox errors when I would run profiles as part of #LinuxMint’s webapp manager.
Spoiler alert: #xdotool came in really handy!

#TIL: Emphasise any text you select, in #OrgMode using the keyboard
Use Ctrl-c Ctrl-x Ctrl-f and it’ll let you choose your markup.

#TIL: Since I sync my zettelkasten-esque Org Roam folder across multiple devices, using Syncthing, every once in while I’d get file conflicts and revisions and the Org Roam db would panic and log errors, because it would find multiple versions of the same file.
Today I learnt, I could exclude subfolders from my Org Roam path. using org-roam-file-exclude-regexp
I put in both my Syncthing subfolders and et voilà, no more errors!
(setq org-roam-file-exclude-regexp '("\\.stversions" "\\.stfolder"))

Been copying text manually from web pages into my #Zettelkasten since last June.
A year into my journey, I realise, I could’ve just used Adam Porter’s (#alphapapa) org-web-tools package to scrape it straight into my org file! [1] Just select the link, M-x org-web-tools-insert-web-page-as-entry and …
Boom!
The whole page!
Properly formatted! In my org file!
Better late than never 😂
[1] which I had installed and ready all the time!
