External Link github.com I’m digging these web2app’s from DHH’s omarchy for setting up an opinionated archlinux hyprland. This gives a way to quickly open a web app as an app either with a hotkey or run launcher in its own dedicated window that you can put on it’s own workspace. I really like a workflow of keeping one window per workspace on one monitor and I can quickly navigate between apps with a single hotkey. This gives you the power to switch through things like chat, terminal, browser, steam game with blazing speed from the keybaord, no clicking no searching, just going directly to it.

GitHub - chase/awrit: A full graphical web browser for Kitty terminal with mouse and keyboard support A full graphical web browser for Kitty terminal with mouse and keyboard support - chase/awrit GitHub · github.com awrit is a full graphical browser that runs inside of kitty. I’ve moved on some of my machines away from kitty as the maintainer has seemed so hostile and there are other great therminals out there, but I’m going to give this a go. I have kitty running on my hyprland setup as it is the default anyways. It is actual chromium rendering to a kitty graphics protocol.
Aur
Arch User Repository, a collection of community maintained packages for archlinux.
Paru
paru is a package manager for archlinux that installs packages from the AUR.
Smooth clipboard settings for tmux is critical for my workflow. I’m often
grabbing snippets of terminal output to paste into team chats, blog posts, or
llm prompts. Admittedly, I’m often doing this with the mouse, unless it’s
coming from neovim, which I generally do with motions. Moving from an xorg
based setup to hyprland has required me to reconfigure my tmux clipboard
settings. This is what I did.
First install wl-clipboard with paru.
paru -S wl-clipboard
Next add this to your tmux config. I’ve long had this config, but with only
the xorg/xclip setup, now this checks for wl-copy, uses it, or falls back to
my old xclip setup.
bind -T copy-mode-vi Enter send-keys -X copy-pipe-and-cancel "bash -c 'command -v wl-copy >/dev/null && wl-copy || xclip -i -f -selection primary | xclip -i -selection clipboard'"
set-option -s set-clipboard off
bind-key -T copy-mode-vi MouseDragEnd1Pane send-keys -X copy-pipe-and-cancel "bash -c 'command -v wl-copy >/dev/null && wl-copy || xclip -i -f -selection primary | xclip -i -selection clipboard'"

command palettes are overrated
Command palettes are slow, and overrated, you should treat yourself better. You probably installed VSC*** out of the box and your co-workers see you using the mouse and reprimanded you as they should. Mouse usage is not OK if you are a software dev, you should have the cheap ass free mouse that came with your cousins dell machine five years ago and only use if for emergencies. If you want to be fast you cannot do that by moving cursors to imprecise locations and clicking with your hand. You are not a caveman, put down the stones and get with the damn times. You need to be moving with precision. Stage One, the command palette So you are taking your first few baby steps away from that Logitech MX Master and you need to get shit done, during these infant months the command palette is your friend. Use it you will be 10x faster than Razer Naga Ron from accounting. If you are in an IDE like or a JEttedBrains editor they come with a command palette for running commands and fuzy finding files,…

hyprland volume control, I wasn't sure if I needed something specific for wayland/pipewire, nope pavucontrol just works.

I might have gpg setup right for kdewallet on hyprland, and I just timed out the request before.
Never did I think I would see the day that theprimeagen decided to run archlinux. Furthermore him to start ricing it, EVEN furthermore, Pewdiepie runs arch now, and thinks you should too?? and is promoting it on one of the largest YouTube channels ever?? Even DHH is getting in the mix with omarchy Such a cool transistion to see everyone find their way to linux and diving deep into the freedom and customization.

Failed to gpg-setup-for-kdewallet correctly on hyprland, brave still complains. Maybe someday I'll figure it out and complete the post.

The commands are all so well customized and whimsical on the terminal.
External Link techdufus.com I’ve ran my homelab on k3s for a year and a half now, and have had talos fomo the whole time. I’m not sure if this article helps or hurts. Helps to see that techdufus struggled and wished he went k3s first, but theres so much good to it that I want it. Prometheus and Grafana for monitoring (because you can’t manage what you can’t see) I’m getting there, ok, I have some of it figured out but not firing on all cylinders like I want. CloudNativePG for PostgreSQL (way better than managing databases manually) Amen to this, cnpg is kick ass and has me tempted to drop sqlite for my production database default. I mostly make small shit on the side that is never going to blow up. sqlite is really good, but the automation that comes along with cnpg to just run it on all nodes and backups once you establish the pattern with the first one is sick. 🤣🤣🤣 actually read the docs 🤣🤣🤣 Is This Overkill for a Homelab? Absolutely. Could do most of this with k3s or Docker Compose. But where’s the fun in that? Speaking my language here! Again I’m well past the 1 year mark of running k3s and i’ve had no regrets. Kubernetes is about establishing and replicating patterns, its a dr…
just fucking use kubernetes
You want to run containers? JUST FUCKING USE KUBERNETES. Obvious satire If you don’t like harsh language this is not the post for you. Obviously ripping off motherfuckingwebsite.

Close twitter and fucking do something. Life is complicated. You know what else is complicated? Email. DNS. Life. Kubernetes is the least painful way to orchestrate containers at scale. Docker Compose is for your laptop. Swarm is dead. Nomad is just sad. Systemd units? Get out of here. “But my app is small!” SO IS YOUR AMBITION. You could write a bunch of bash scripts and hope they work on prod. You could SSH into servers and handcraft your infra like it’s 2011. Or you could just fucking use Kubernetes and sleep at night.
