I am having an extremely frustrating morning of trying to merge an #OmniFocus database my Apple #reminders and a short list out of my bullet journal into an amalgam of task paper projects and tasks that I can then re-import.

The problem that I'm having is that most of the #AI platforms and tools that I'm using think the file was too long or has too many records & some of the tasks aren't making it over if youve done something like this before I would like to join you!

Shared Apple Reminders That Never Disappear

Maybe one day Apple will find time to fix this bug with shared Reminders. Maybe not, given all that it keeps piling on its seemingly overflowing plate these days.Here’s the thing. Apple has a nifty feature to share lists and Reminders in the Reminders app. It allows you to create a list and share it among family, friends, or perhaps even National Security officials but I haven’t heard of it being used that way. Yet.It works as advertised when it comes to actually sharing a Reminder. My wife and I use it for grocery and other shopping lists. If she’s doing an inventory through the cabinets prior to a grocery run, I’ll get notifications of the Reminders she adds to the list.The problem pokes its head up after those Reminders are completed.  Those notifications don’t disappear the way non-shared Reminders do. They hang around. Seemingly forever. At least in my case, sometimes for hours.The two Reminders in the image above are from my iMac. My wife added them after I had already headed to the store on a day of errands. They were still there hours after I had checked them off in the Shared Reminders list on my iPhone. The notifications still remained on my iPhone as well.You have to manually get rid of these Shared Reminder notifications, which seems like a silly bug to me. It’s been around since Shared Reminders was introduced in iOS 13. It’s a shame it’s been around so long because Apple has done a good job over the years evolving the Reminders app into something that’s really useful.Perhaps Apple Intelligence will figure out a way to fix this somewhere down the line. I won’t set a shared Reminder to check on that though.You can find more of my writings on a variety of topics on Medium at this link, including in the publications Ellemeno and Rome. I can also be found on social media under my name as above.

Accidental no-code hack for Linux desktop:

When I apply the always-on-top window hint to #Evince, open text annotation boxes in any PDF, and then minimise the program, the #PostIt-style boxes stay visible and on top of other windows.

The result is sets of very minimal post-it notes, packaged into separate PDF files, without additional programs.

Maybe this is useful to somebody. I'm using AwesomeWM on Xorg. No idea if this works for anybody else.
