@metztli ...which sadly has a #NaturallySpeaking dependency, like a lot of these applications. We need an RMS-approved dictation engine :)

Will Gardella emacs , Jose R Rodriguez

@metztli Interesting. I wonder how it compares to !emacs VoiceCode. http://ur1.ca/du601

Will Gardella KDE , emacs , Arne Babenhauserheide

@arnebab considered using emacsclient + an org capture template and (require 'org-protocol)? It's more directly designed for that case.

Will Gardella emacs , Arne Babenhauserheide

@arnebab That looks suspiciously like reinventing !emacs #emacsclient :)

http://ur1.ca/dfhyr Reinhart-Rogoff errors "should lead us to reassess the austerity agenda itself in both Europe and the United States."

Will Gardella emacs , Jason F. McBrayer

@jfm !emacs M-x multi-occur is even nicer :D

Will Gardella emacs , Arne Babenhauserheide

@arnebab the other problem is that I don't exactly type properly, so I often reach capslock with my pinky anyway. :S

Will Gardella emacs , Arne Babenhauserheide

@arnebab I was never able to get used to that binding. I think it's the context switching, having it in X but not in console.

Will Gardella emacs

best !emacs decision I've made in a while: binding capslock to hippie-expand. http://ur1.ca/c3hvx

The common law is a bit like UNIX: small incremental hacks pretending they're a system. In both cases, big problems take a while to solve.

@marjoleink you might also consider #AFS as #NFS has some baked-in assumptions (like that your UID is the same on both boxen).

Will Gardella Linux , Marjolein Katsma

@marjoleink re: nfs, you also get to make fun decisions like hard vs. soft timeouts and TCP vs. UDP transmission

Will Gardella Linux , Marjolein Katsma

@marjoleink okay, that sounds like a workable setup. :)

Will Gardella Linux , Marjolein Katsma

@marjoleink #NFS works well if the two hosts are always on the same LAN together. if one is a mobile machine, I'd recommend #SSHFS instead.

Will Gardella Linux , Marjolein Katsma

@marjoleink if possible, see if the software project has its own (external) !debian repos. dependency/lib versions can be significant.

Will Gardella

have a good #fawkesday everybody. #rememberremember

Will Gardella Linux , Jacob Barkdull

@jacobwb thanks for your concern. %)

Will Gardella Linux , Bijan

@bijan I recommend http://grml.org/ Debian Live based, and tuned for comfortable terminal hacking (especially if you like Zsh).

Will Gardella Linux , Jaime Alberto Silva

@jaimealsilva for removable device support, I recommend a udev setup, or just old-fashioned `mount'.
