!til that I can use Chromium with Firefox's Library (the bookmarking tool): just drag a URL from Chromium into Library, and it will create a bookmark, even picking up the document title. This is a big time saver for me! (It works more-or-less with Epiphany, too, but the title doesn't come across.) #browsing #bookmarking -

!TIL: The need of full paths to other files in a #python script which is started as cronjob is also given when another script/program is 'call'ed by that script from a path that is stated in $PATH for the user whose crontab is running the script. So if you want to start a program from /usr/sbin from a script that is started by root's crontab, it must be called with /usr/sbin/$program. $PATH seems not to apply. -

!TIL: If you want to run a #python script via crontab and expect to find a file (i. e. your config) in your own script path, you must find out your own script path first using os.path.dirname(sys.argv[0]) because the default path will not be the same as if you run the script from console. -
