@ramin_hal9001 I use the same C-x b as well. 👍

I just like static access points for some files (such as todo.org, repeat.org, chatgpt, dashboard, etc...) things I refer to many times a day. I set it so that I can flip through the tabs very quickly back and forth so it's generally faster than C-x b and typing a few letters to bring up the relevant buffer. Also, flipping through them, I realise I lose track of things sometimes in my head and a visual reminder when I'm flipping through allows me to remember to do something on that buffer.

@dekkzz76 That makes sense. Thanks.

I use the same tab-bar-mode myself, but I was looking into Centaur. Just curious about it. But I like the minimalism of the default tab bar. It's very thin and takes up barely any room.

@natharari
I don't use tabs, I re-bind "C-x b" to the Vertico+Consult switch buffer function which lets me switch to any buffer by name very quickly. Also, the project.el functions are good enough to switch between files and buffers realted to a parcitular a project, especially when used with Vertico.

If I really need to separate groups of windows, I open a new frame and use my window manager to switch between frames. I do this sometimes when following multiple channels on IRC.

@natharari

tabs i use: dashboard, either guile, tcl, prolog or raku programming window setup, scratchpad.org, notmuch mail, elfeed, weechat in vterm

FWIW i use (tab-bar-mode 1) in my init.el

with only 4 to 6 tabs i don't feel the need for extra keybindings, if i had a lot more open & i think many ppl do then i probably would have them, i use the trackpoint on my thinkpad for the tabs so my hands never leave the kb

@dekkzz76

1) Cool
2) Like permanent ones you keep just one buffer open in, for example your daily todo.org, your daily notes, etc....
3) Your poor fingers. 🤣
4) Ok.

tabs questions:

1) How many tabs (not buffers) do you usually have open?
2) Are there a certain amount that you name for buffers you refer to several times a day?
3) What keybinds (if any) did you set to flip through them quickly?
4) Which tab system/package do you use?
5) If you use Mastodon.el, do you have a dedicated tab? More than one?

Also: Consider giving it a flame job decal on both sides. 😀🔥

@dasdom @ctietze How's it handle? Does it do 0-120wpm in under 5 seconds? Details!

Slate: How the Streaming Era Turned Music Into Sludge

It's a point of view that a lot of people can agree with.

One thing: Endel is mentioned in the piece. The author uses it and I actually also use it. I've been using it to help me sleep and block out the city noise for about a year and a half. Honestly, it's been fantastic. I actually love it. I've tried their "focus" stuff, but that just doesn't do it for me. In fact, I don't usually ever have background music. Last night, I was listening to music and it's all that I was doing. I was focused on it. I wasn't reading, or writing, or checking Mastodon - nothing like that. I was simply listening to music. It was an experience. The whole "background music" while I work thing isn't for me. I can't concentrate and it just sounds confusing.

@Pat @CardboardRobot It is and, so far, it looks like it will probably remain legal. But, even though I'm sitting all the way in France, there's no way I'm going to do absolutely nothing to try to help a little bit to keep it so - just in case. 😀

@Pat @natharari Thank you, I wasn’t thinking along those lines. Happy to be corrected and reminded.

In jurisdictions that offer initiative ballot measures, petitions are the first step.

Way back when, when petitions were actual pieces of paper that you signed, I would sign almost every one that somebody showed me just to support the process, whether I agreed with it or not.

(ps - Mifepristone is still legal and will remain so.)
