4 gasket: " Cleanly fix accidental duplicates
The worst thing about Tags in most systems is that you have to memorize the exact syntax, including capitalization, and if you mess it up you break your tag structure.
In Roam, say you create an “Apple Watch” and an “apple watch” page on accident. Well if you go to the “apple watch” page and change the title to “Apple Watch,” Roam will automatically merge the data on the pages and update any links to “apple watch” to go to “Apple Watch.” No more accidental duplicate issues.

DO NOT add clipit & to .bash_profile - it starts a million times and messes up emacs you can add it to startup applications, although i think it adds itself
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python3
edit the firefox entry in /etc/mailcap (using sudo vim /etc/mailcap) and add ' needsterminal;' to it; this prevents Mutt from deleting the temp file before Firefox opens it
also in /etc/mailcap add the following at the top:
application/pdf; evince %s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"
