Dokuwiki user here. Your cons are true, but compared to the cons of other ones, they are all solvable. The concern with a plug-in being required to do something is silly. It’s open source and the plugin system is limitless. If it’s ugly, make a theme. I’ve never had a problem with article titles being mutilated, but then again, I treat the file name (e.g. the url of the page) separate from the root header as you’re supposed to.

Considering your comment about search being awful in another wiki, it’s pretty good in Dokuwiki.

Considering how much you care about plain text, you should probably discount the con about file names as I’m pretty sure that’s part of why Dokuwiki does what it does. It’s an actual text file sitting in a directory that matches the path.

For what it’s worth, I admire Obsidian. If it’s a personal project with no intent to share, that’s what I’d use. For business or public hosting, I’d use (and do use, at my company) Dokuwiki.

Another fun thing from this show is the magic system, which limits the caster’s ability based on what they can imagine. Programming feels exactly like that to me. I mean, a lot of human ability is limited by that, but most stuff is also limited by physical constraints long before imagination. With programming, we more often hit the limit of our imagination, or time feasibility, before any other constraint.

Working with non programmers, it’s always wild to field their unimaginative solutions, and refreshing when someone actually had a good idea.

Working with less experienced programmers, it’s fun to help them through problems. So often they hit a wall they can’t imagine walking through, take some concession and build around the wall. You can appreciate the work, and then show them the simple solution to walk through the wall. If they have talent, they grow quick.

Working with a much more experienced programmer, or in a domain you don’t have much experience with, helps keep you humble because there’s no way you’re going to learn everything.

Anyway, back to writing my spells.

Going to try to convert two 2-post racks into a 4-post rack today. Dreading the mess though.

Not sure if this works anymore, but worth a try. Get on the phone with the 1-800 during business hours and escalate, ask for consumer relations. Make sure you tell each person that you talk to that you’ll never be shopping at best buy again if this isn’t resolved, so they know you’re serious and will properly escalate you. 15 years ago, that would solve any problem. People who absolutely scammed Best Buy would still get replacements plus a gift card for their trouble, at least once.

Sorry this happened to you. Don’t just assume the chargeback is going to solve things without any more effort, the machines involved might fuck you over if you don’t take steps. Credit card might side with vendor if you don’t submit evidence better than theirs. Your case seems cut and dry since it wasn’t even the right address, but you might still need to get that police report filled. Like the other poster said, you’re just getting the case#, as frustrating as it is, expecting anything else would just be silly. All of these things show you are serious and not a scammer. Scammers wouldn’t try this shit because it would put them in jail the second or third time they did it without any evidence. You have evidence, but the machine is tuned to ignore it until escalation. Fucking lame, I know.
