*** DONE Check if these todos work
SCHEDULED: <2023-06-22 Thu>
I am finally trying out using org agenda as a dayplanner,
and as a result, I want to check if these todos work.
Additionally, I will be linking my old site to my new one
(this one).
** 10:15
So basically these timestamps work for real now, and this
todo also works. I have set up exwm in emacs so my qtile
configuration is no longer being worked on as it is being
replaced by exwm.

EXWM is nice because the keybindings are consistent. You can
treat x window buffers in the same way you do text buffers,
and the modeline can act as a status bar. The modeline has
battery percentage and time built into it which makes it
a bar replacement as those two things are the only thing
I need really.

What's nice is that if there is something going on inside emacs
and you are in another application, you can see it via the modeline,
whereas you would need notifications if you were to do this
in a conventional window manager. For example, i can get irc notifications
from my emacs irc client by simply glancing at the modeline while I am
in, say, qutebrowser.

I'm currently looking into xwidgets in order to replace my web browser
in favor of emacs. If I can do that, then 95% of my computing
can be done with emacs integration.
