• Use Midnight Commander like a pro (2015)

  Shameless plug for my more modern alternative to Midnight Commander, https://fman.io. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Best symbols in folder names to pin an important folder up top?

  Use a file browser that supports jumping to a folder by frecency (examples: z (shell extension) or my-dired-recent-dirs() in my dired or https://fman.io/ for users that prefer graphical UIs). You will find out that you will prefer jumping to navigation when you're familiar with the concept. Source: about 2 years ago

• Ask HN: Why aren't there any real alternatives to Electron?

  There are great alternatives. I used Python and Qt to create my file manager [1]. It's a tool that needs to start quickly so Electron was not an option [2].

  /u/Guffikiss_ and /u/cygnusxone_ are correct, it's a brain training app called Elevate.   For me I've made it part of my morning routine, and it help me sort of kickstart my brain, reducing the number of days I'm getting absolutely nothing done as a thanks to executive disfunction. It has a 7-day free trial if you want to try it out. Source: over 1 year ago

• Lithium slowing down my brain

  Sorry for rambling, a suggestion I have is maybe try some phone games that are g seed towards cognitive training? My two favorite games for this aren’t marketed as that, but that’s what they are. I play Flow Free (the one where you connect different colored dots on a grid) and I Love Hue (you have images of color gradients that are split into pieces and you have to put them together like a puzzle). Another one I... Source: over 1 year ago
