i think it's about time i document my current computer usage practicies, so i can look back on it in the future and see where i've come from.
also having a blog post from time to time would be nice so this site is not perceived as dead.
on my desktop pc i am currently running void linux (which was a mistake btw, i'm switching back to arch asap) with i3 as a wm. my terminal of choice is st (with tmux for scrollback etc.) because i don't really care about terminal features (on systems with easy virtual desktop switching, otherwise i need tabs).
i am unfortunately bound to windows, because it is necessary for me to develop a wpf application. so for terminal it's wt.exe and for wm it's windows, which is terrible but what can you do.
to develop said wpf app i begrudgingly use visual studio, because from my understanding that's the only way to get hot reload of xaml.
i am still on w10, but will switch at the eol.
to compensate for the lack of usable wm, i have some autohotkey scripts that map capslock+key to focusing certain applications:
capslock+`
: terminalcapslock+1
: discordcapslock+2
: ide (i still didn't do it for vs)capslock+3
: browsercapslock+4
: elementcapslock+e
: explorerfor most personal projects i use neovim btw as the editor.
i have some espanso matches for emotes (;;weary
etc.), reaction
images (;;idespair
etc.) and other utils (;;now
etc.).
i map clicking capslock to esc, and holding capslock and clicking hjkl to arrow keys.
i use tpin to jump between places
in the terminal. i would wager i use tp
alias more often than
cd
.
i post website content by pushing git commits to my vps (which then pushes it
to github). there is a /cms/software
but it doesn't work.
i think that's the most of it, if i rember i'll either post a comment or update the post (or not).
