My Surface tablet was getting full. It only has 256GB of internal storage!
-
I had a Dev Drive. Itโs gone now. It was taking about 6 or 7 GB of disk space from all the [[JavaScript]] repositories and packages. I used [[pnpm]] but I think it didnโt really worked with that drive? I wasnโt too sure what a Dev Drive actually did.
- Since I removed the Dev Drive and moved my repositories back, I can use [[Windows]]โ native compacting features.
- Installed CompactGUI to automate native OS compacting.
- Ran
git repack -a -d -f --depth=250 --window=250on some large repositories. - Iโm now left with 47 GB free.
- Probably should use OneDrive more often.

My [[Git]] + [[SilverBullet]] setup wasnโt the most optimal. I figured out why.
Recall the default.gitattributesfrom GitHub Desktop.* text=autois a good default, but it can be made better for SilverBullet.
So, I now have* eof=lfin the.gitattributesfile. This is because SilverBullet+ syncs files with LF line endings.- I am yet to observe โNo content changesโ messages from GitHub Desktop Plus.
-
Iโm going to try not publishing new journal entries to spacious nexusโ site for now.
- Maybe this can encourage me to use more of the [[agora protocol]]. Tends to feel alienating when published.
- Something [[SEO]] related. Need a control.
-
I woke up again. I figured out why. Itโs [[Friday]]. Uh oh.
- Iโm missing out. Not too sure of it.

- Created a [[content warning]] component for [[Quartz]] 4.
-
Noticed that Quartz 5 is being released.
-
Probably wonโt upgrade to it. Mainly:

- [[We need a digital shock doctrine for the left]].
- I’m struggling a bit to finish this off.
- I think it’s because I seem to be trying to write it with the tone of an academic article of sorts, whereas right now it’s really blog post territory.
- I have rough thoughts and questions, areas to read more.
- If I try and present it as thorough research I’ll never finish it. I think I’ll change the tone.

Jammed:

Hania Rani - On Giacometti: A Live Performance at Atelier in Stampa
- Listening to this in the shade of a tree in the sunshine at the cemetery while R sleeps in the buggy. Peaceful.
- Very emotive piano performance.

Perhaps a good way to distinguish myself from an AI is to speak more of my embodied experiences as a human in the world.
- I tend to keep those private, but worth considering.
