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.

My FAST things:
global shortcut to tomboy-ng for make a new note, picrel
synapse for my launcher

investigations:

catfish for search

like everything, Recoll:
https://www.recoll.org/

this is promising for duplicating Tornado Notes:
https://github.com/google/codesearch

It's fool's gold, glitters, but is it FAST? that's what I thought.

current goals:
>tornado notes 100% feature replication
>>this means full text search limited to 1 directory, and piped to another app I'll have to either write or whatever, we'll see
>full text search, hoping recoll can do it

and now also

>STOPWATCH RIGHT NOW RIGHT NOW YOU STUPID SHIT PROGRAMMERS RIGHT. NOW. NOW, NOT LATER, NOT IN 5 SECONDS, NOW <1 SECOND

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

RIGHT.
NOW.

why have all these ghzs and gbs to have chunky SLOOOOWWWW INTERFACES

don't be mac

don't be windows

don't be vim/linux

be DOS fast.

This all sounds so scammy. When's the rug pull?

tomboy-ng is just floss software.

You can try Tornado Notes here:
(using the latest infoselect is the same, but updated, really, so pick that. the old name was better)
https://archive.org/details/tornadonotes

This isn't everything, of course, but here's what it has:
1. from anywhere in DOS, you can call up the TSR. Then, you can take a new note. This is slower than how you can setup tomboy-ng, which has a global shortcut, possible (qpaste works this way on non-wayland linux, there are many apps that can do this fow Linux and Windows, but do they really auto-save like tomboy does? Autosave don't lose my stuff you retards is very important, obivously... tornado notes was inferior here because as a TSR it didn't auto-save, YOU had to save, and God help you if you lost power)
2. your notes are in a stack, like a stack of cards. This makes displaying them very fast, you just flip through them. I think Obsidian has a shortcut for moving up and down in your notes (but the problem is that Obsidian has so much other stuff in there that you may use, so you have a real mess on your hands, maybe a fork of obsidian without those features and standalone is the way to go, idk, we'll see)
3. your notes are auto-arranged, tightly packed. I have yet to find anything that does this, much less instantly. Some controls in various gui programming libraries may be able to do this, but Tornado Notes seems the only one to have auto sizing of notes.
4. full text search of notes is instant

Tornado notes had other features, and InfoSelect added a lot more.

imo that's not useful really, like the point for me is GET THE NOTE RIGHT NOW <1second NOW NOW

also FIND THE NOTE NOW NOW

like that's what I'm talking about fixing. Many other apps are way more advanced, and their slowness is excusable to some degree, like if you use a word processor, ok, so you have to dive into the menus to make your text pink, whatever.

Busting one out in under 10 seconds for my /FAST/ boys.

I always hit WIN-L aka meta-L, when I leave my pc. So, I don't think proximity unlock is useful...

but I want bt unlock. I turn on my paired bt headset (which I only use on my pc) and I want it to unlock (but not actually login, just unlock, if locked)

Excellent work. Never forget what they took from us.

I found a very nice comment:
>so my base gentoo install with dwm, boots like basically instantly, especially with msi fastboot

Looking at this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k25TrKGXo_A

looks like it logs in about that fast, and you could have it automatically startx

It's a pc race for sure, though, because at close to 2 seconds, we need a crt and we also need an LED for the power on, so we have a totally visual racing setup.

imo the only solution for such cases is to uptime max, which is also FAST.
