Enjoying watching David bring together his rss reader day by day. Excited to see where it goes. Im trying to get better at dropping notes like this without a ton of context, without needing to be right, just a note of whats on my mind and what I’m doing.

Good point to check on your uv cache if you are running low on disk space. I checked mine today, and it wasn’t too bad so I left it alone.

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.

Check out kyantech and their project Palmr.

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.

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 AUR.">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.

I need to give this a try for markata glossary

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.

This has to be top tier dopest home page of all time. The commands are all so well customized and whimsical on the terminal.

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.

I’m getting there, ok, I have some of it figured out but not firing on all cylinders like I want.

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.

For anyone self hosting a bunch of apps under one domain, I just swapped all of mine to Host matching which includes the full subdomain, and it is glorious to not have 9+ items hit on all of your pages and only the one that you actually want.

vim usage is becoming normie level. Just like archinstall made it too easy to install arch and brought normies into the ecosystem. It killed ArchBTW^TM^, distros like lazyvim have killed vimBTW^TM^. It used to be that to run arch, vim, nvim you had to read the docs, and go deep on understanding. running archinstallor lazyvim make it so easy to get started that you miss all of the details, you no longer have to understand ctags, quickfix, what an lsp is, or even how to set your own keybindings. You just use the damn thing, like you would with VSC****. No shame to anyone who does this, but you are probably missing out on a bunch of really useful features of a very core tool in your workflow.

Just discovered Sylvan Franklin in this post and he is cracked, sub now.

Wish I would have saw this guide and provided assembly file for setting up virt-manager in distrobox. They call out immutable distros like the knew I was coming.

I got virtual machine manager running on two Bazzite machines today. It was a bit tricky, more than I thought actually. I ran into all sorts of virtualisation not setup issues when I tried the flatpak. Then I found that Bazzite comes with a ujust setup-virtualization command that does all the work for me. I tried that and again virtual machine manager was here, but not working, this time it feels like flatpak issues.

In a Hail Mary attempt I got it working by using an ubuntu distrobox container to run the UI. And it worked!

From the host we create the container to use from distrobox. This is an ubuntu machine, it can be any os of your choosing, preferably one that you are familiar with and contains virt-manager in its package repos.

distrobox create -i ubuntu distrobox enter ubuntu

from inside the distrobox container #

Now that we are in the distrobox we are no longer in an immutable distro and we can easily install anything we want. I actually like this process. I might have shit like this that I use for a month or a few...

Looking for inspiration? opencode by sst.

AI coding agent, built for the terminal.

I’m impressed by opencode from anomalyco.

The open source coding agent.

What’s even real anymore? What a shitty age we are in that you have to form an opinion about news outlets and media outlets.

I just never quite understood why the word just can send people over the top. I get it when you don’t know someone, you don’t have history with them, and they come in saying you are doing something wrong.

I pulled this out into a full post just

2025 is not the year to get put on the market, its rough out there. Junior’s have little chance, senior+ are even struggling. We had it easy from 2020-2023, now its over saturated and you have to want to be in this industry to be here and stay here. It used to be a fine place to get a good job to pay the bills, the bar has been raised and if you don’t want to be here you are going to struggle. Theo covers this in this linked video deeply [[ thoughts-472 ]].

Nailed the netflix documentary style. Videos like this make me so grateful that I have a job in this rough market, if you’ve followed jepi’s series you know he’s been out of a job for months, and he is not alone in this. This is the year of “laid of, i didn’t get laid off, I left to focus on my startup”, [[ thoughts-716 ]]
