I need to make some changes
A recent visit to the cardiologist annoyed me. Now I’m thinking about how to make adjustments.
Vegan meat, vegan cheese, vegan… tomatoes. The sauce was way too watery (got the wrong ingredients), but I managed to save it somewhat. 🍝📷
This might sounds weird but… anyone has installed homebrew on their linux machine? Does it work well?
Harper: quick, light and private grammer check for Emacs
I’ve been trying Harper, and I like it overall. Here’s a more thorough review combined with some installation notes. Oh, and if you’re an Obsidian user, Harper is supported too!
Installed Emacs again on Pop OS (I wiped it after my GPU issues), and now I realize I’ve had this weird issue in org-mode, where images are displayed in landscape mode. Some of my images are rotated 90 degrees in the wrong direction. Anyone familiar with this, what causes it, and how to fix it?
Feels like this vacation ended before it even started. We still have some time to spend tomorrow, and we’re planning on pizza1 at some point before we head back.
It took me too long to stop thinking of work. I haven’t realized how deep I’m in. It helps to have this understanding though. As always, I’m glad to be going back home to my little cave, where Hedwig the second - my Pop OS desktop - is waiting with my games, after the latest issue seems to be resolved.
Turns out I can take pretty good photos 📷 with the iPhone. I know, not a huge shock there. In the past, I used my camera for “the serious” stuff; this time, all the photos you see from the last couple of days on the blog are taken with my phone. I only took a couple with the camera that ran out of battery quickly. Considering the ease of use of syncing these… well, we will see.
Footnotes
1 : Since I stopped eating cheese, Pizza has been one of the top things I miss. Fortunately there’s a good place here that has vegan options.
Discovered Harper in this blog post but not sure how to get it to work. Installed with homebrew, evaluated the default lisp they have on their site and… ok, now what? I don’t see any Harper-related commands. Has anyone figured it out?
Short version: Harper is a frontend to Server Language Protocol (SLP). Emacs has a built-in SLP called Eglot. This means you use Eglot on Emacs to run Harper, so the interactive (M-x) command is Eglot (and it helps if you spell it correctly 🤦♂️). The E-Lisp configuration they have on their website (above) works fine, provided Eglot is configured to run and you have Harper installed.
I will expand later after I experiment some more.
Between the shops, there was a green space, a shed, and plants for sale in the yard. The owner was attending to the various plants, apologizing continuously for the long hose that was snaking around the visitors’ feet. 📷
I enjoy industrial buildings since I ever seen one I think. Not sure why. Another iPhone picture of opportunity 📷.
After the thunderstorm, the heat broke to a cool breeze. We had a nice walk next to the water 📷.
