Too many have allowed their computers to become SLOW. We here in /FAST/ are not slow retards, we are FAST.

itt all things gombuder and FAST. fast boot times, low ping times, high bandwidth, gbps? we want exabites per picosecond. moar v/ram speeds things up? moar it is then.

or faster code.

or interface fixes to be FAST.

You scared me, bro. I had to go check and see that all the ActivityWatch developers are suitably German for such an autistic (positive) project.

In today's FAST, I introduce to you one piece of the puzzle of my quest to replicate Tornado Notes on Linux.

The first piece is I WANT TO WRITE A NOTE RIGHT NOW. NOT IN A MINUTE. NOW. NOT IN A FEW, NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW RIGHT NOW!!!!

If you are NOT on Wayland, you can use qpaste for this - you setup a custom global shortcut for new note.

But I am on Wayland.

note: remember not to try to assign to ctrl-alt combos, idk why it hates that, you'll sort of get a lockup, I think. I don't have the time (IMFAST) to sort out the exact bug

anyway, tldr is you install the latest tomboy-ng, which on Ubuntu is easy, you download
tomboy-ng_0.42-0_i386.deb
and install it
maybe you also need
libqt5pas1_2.16-1_i386.deb
I installed it just in case.

anyway, the new version is needed because we need -c to create a new note (the suppository doesn't have that jammed in it just now).

Settings (in launcher) -> Keyboard -> (scroll down) -> View and Customize Shortcuts -> (scroll down) -> plus button


I also have it as a startup application, in Tweaks. This is vital for FAST FAST FAST

sudo apt install gnome-tweaks

it's in your launcher as just "Tweaks"

This is what a new note looks like when I hit shift-F8.

I also am fond of a lack of distractions, but that is a debate in /FAST/ - sometimes seeing more is better, but sometimes it just slows you down. I see the benefit of both.

I think I agree with the anon who says this is baste and activity spyware even for our own good is le bad
>>
>>107252969
fwiw I install synapse from the suppository, and it is an alright launcher, and it could be a little snappier, but it jest werks (on Wayland), with this setting, found on the ubuntu forums iirc
>>
>>107252981
(synapse can't be screenshotted easily, but it's just a basic launcher ie you type a little bit, and then stuff on your gombuder gets listed if the letters match the name a little)

This is looking pretty hot. I'll have to see how it goes. Catfish does work, but this is more like Everything was, I think.

Thanks to ai, I have also found
https://github.com/google/codesearch

I will have to see if this can be made to very swiftly search my tomboy-ng notes folder

If I control the spyware that's spying on me, no one else can see it, it's not really spyware.
Is my diary (desu) spyware? Probably not.
