## Questions and answers

-   Q:regarding exporting notes from remarkable does this system works
    with any tablet? Would love to use it with a boox max etc.
    -   A: Unfortunately, it does not (directly). The current software I
        use makes use of OneDrive so in theory it could be integrated
        with others.
-   Q: quiliro: is there a demo for lector?
    -   A: quiliro See <https://gitlab.com/velocitatem/lectorg>
-   Q: \<quiliro\> velocitatem: are you openning the pdf inside emacs?
    -   A: The PDF was being open in firefox.
-   Q:Have you tried org-noter for taking notes on pdfs?
    -   A:I have not, will make sure to check it out tho!
-   Q: How does lectorg diverge from using something like YASnippets for
    the math insertations, etc. 
    -   A: It uses YASnippets to inser the math functions, the main idea
        is to provide those snippets and to use them with lectorg\'s
        functions to plot graphs.
-   Q: Can your notes interact with the vidoes at all? ex timestamps or
    inserted subs, external player \"mpv\"
    -   A: As of now, they cannot, but that is a wonderful idea!
-   Q:  do you find that you can type fast enough / keep up with live
    lectures using Lectorg?
    -   A: Not 100% but the package makes it easier for me to deal with
        other things while taking notes
-    \<korkeala\> velocitatem : thanks for the talk! you mentioned
    integration with remarkable notes, could that be with other hand
    writing software, like xjournalpp?
    -   A: I am really not certain, but im sure it could be. Since
        reMarkable has a very proprietary cloud, the integration is a
        bit of a hack.
-   Q: Is there a way of making latex rendering go in the background?
    Also to lower its 
    -   A:
