I Replaced YNAB with a Free Terminal App
You may not know it about me, but I was a longtime YNAB user. I really liked how good the app was at letting me track spending, finances, and how much was being spent in one category or another. In fact, using YNAB several years ago is the reason I no longer have an auto…

You Can Bullet Journal from the Terminal
I’ve used a bullet journal for several years now. I mean, it’s the very first thing I wrote about on this site. Additionally, I’ve been running Linux as a daily driver even longer than that, running only a few distros like Arch and openSUSE without distro hopping. As a result of running Linux so often,…

Dank Material Shell Makes Hyprland Feel Complete
I’ll be frank about something. In general, I’ve had less ideas lately about what to write regarding Linux use in general. I mean, sure, I could always discuss how Microsoft misread the room (understatement of the year, and it’s only January) and started driving Linux Mint adoption, but I’m surely not the first person to…

A Few Fast, Easy Commands to Start Using Vimium C
I admit that it initially took me a while to really “get” Vim commands, to really appreciate them. That eventually changed, and I still use them in Obsidian to this day. But what if there was a way to get similar commands elsewhere, like in the browser? What if there was a way to control…

How I Turned The 12 Week Year Into a Game
Welcome back! It’s the long overdue return of the Sudo Science Book Club! In this series of posts, I take a deep dive into books that resonated with me and simultaneously break down what I’ve learned and implemented from them. For the previous posts in the Sudo Science Book Club, see the further reading section…

Combine Your Second Brain with Zettelkasten
I’m already approaching an entire year of using my current second brain for my personal knowledge management. In case anybody doesn’t remember, I stopped using my old one because it became so bloated with information that didn’t quite matter to me. Instead of scrapping the idea altogether, I decided I just wanted a fresh start…

Make macOS Feel More Like Linux (UPDATED)
NOTE: I made a few updates now recommending both yabai and Sketchybar in addition to the other tools already listed in the post. I have a confession to make. While I love Linux and prefer to use it, I haven’t used my openSUSE workstation in the past few months. My reliable ThinkPad has been collecting…

Why is My Nextcloud Snap Using More Storage?
Here’s another one of my quick Linux tips, this time largely dealing with what happens to a Nextcloud instance installed with Snap as it takes up too much mystery storage. How Did You Fix It? I still recommend reading up on this before jumping to the solution in case you had the same issue I…

Working Image Previews in Krusader on a non-KDE Desktop
(NOTE: Skip this top section and scroll down to “Just Give Me The Solution” if you just want the answer to fix this right away.) I have another quick Linux tip here, and this one is about Krusader, the Qt5-based, double-pane file manager for Linux. If you just recently installed Krusader for the first time,…

Play Podcasts in the Terminal with Castero
I had an itch recently to listen to some podcasts again, something I haven’t done as often as I used to several years ago. While I am aware that Spotify has some pretty nice podcast support, that’s mostly for the GUI app. Trying to listen to podcasts on spotify-player doesn’t really make sense for me…
