Is there some way to tell org exactly how I want it to spit out HTML? I was going to do my blog entirely with org-mode+org-publish, but it spits out a mess of HTML and also a small bit of js for some reason, so I'm just writing html directly myself now. I don't really find writing html myself all that annoying or anything, but it'd be nice if I could get org to generate really clean/simple HTML for me that I could th…

I've been blogging with org-publish for a while, but I switched to a Ruby script instead [1]. I'd not recommend using org-publish for this, because it's slow, and it's hard to add new posts. It's nice for static projects (say like a bunch of PDFs or some documentation maybe), but it does not lend itself to a more dynamic thing like a blog (dynamic in the sense that you want to add new pages rather frequently). Applyi…

Termux of course is not the same as using a regular terminal on desktop Linux, but it's pretty damn good. I've had pretty good luck with SSH on Termux - it's great to be able to transfer things from my computer to my phone via rsync (I have some apps which do SAMBA, but they tend to be flaky; likewise physically plugging the phone in and transferring with adb isn't very convenient).

I don't disagree with anything you're saying except that Termux is, of and by itself, a sufficient replacement for a full desktop system. I'd tried to make that happen over the course of 2.5 years, a full year of which was with Termux. And as mentioned: the best damned thing to happen to me on Android. Termux is really nice, and for the 700 - 800 or so packages it has, there's a tremendous amount of utility. But you'…
