    Hey! Watch it pal! Friendly fire seems to be active, because I feel very much attacked by your comment xD I will just save this post so I can read it later when I have time.

    I plan to release my software publicly in the coming weeks. You can subscribe to my newsletter to get notified when it’s available.

    Yup.

  Vikinja feature request: once a day export “due today” tasks to printer, mark as done when printed. One day I’ll learn python and could script this myself… One day

  I kind of do want a receipt printer to play with now but I don’t think I want to adopt the whole software system. This seems very cleaning focused. Cleaning actually is my procrastination. I clean to tell myself I’m too busy cleaning to deal with more complex issues.

    i cant clean when i need to, but when i have other pressing tasks, suddenly I’m cleaning. not doing what I’m supposed to be doing, but I’m still “productive” is what i tell myself… not that it works at keeping away the guilt very well.

  Please don’t do this. Stores need to stop with the plastic infused receipt paper that leaches into your skin in seconds.

    Good to know. Also an easy problem to fix. Just use phenol free paper.

  There’s already an app for this, called Goblin Tools. It breaks down tasks for you into more easily digestible subtasks.

    Is there a self hosted version of it/something like it?

      Not that I’m aware of.

  For my case, I already cut up my tasks finely. I just need LogSeq to add a confetti animation once I mark a task as Done.

  Make sure to use the phenol-free paper.

  For anyone needing something like that right now - not wanting to wait for their release I can recommend Tody. It really helped me and my SO.

  Kinda reminds me of the Little Printer from Berg, which came out ocer a decade ago. fastcompany.com/…/the-little-printer-a-cult-class…

  Games are easy to start, even with low motivation.

  I feel like I spend more time keeping the thing in working order, filling up forms, entering 2fa codes, clicking on verification emails, realizing the driver has updated, so the workflows that has been working before are now broken, but some that were broken are working again… and by that point I don’t even want to play.
