Slept from twelve-thirty to six-thirty. Might take a nap later.
Sixty and sunny today.
Watched Escape from New York on Netflix.
John Carpenter always delivers.
There should be more baseball bat fights in movies.
Goals:
- Review config for zsh history
Done.
- Golang study
No.
- PF notes
No.
Why is my `/etc/resolv.conf` suddenly getting deleted at reboot?
Probably some KDE unbalanced the humors of NetworkManager.
$ nmcli conn show br0 | grep 'ipv4.dns:'
# nmcli conn modify br0 ipv4.dns 10.0.1.1
Or, that's as simply as it's supposed to work.
Ran into a couple of infuriating bugs, but after a couple of hours of fucking around I seem to have beaten NetworkManager into submission.
Also, damn it, why is my cursor still KDE-themed?
The Debian `kde-standard` is pretty sloppy about deinstalling its (enormous number of) dependencies.
Removing the following packages, followed by an autoremove, seems to fix things: kde-baseapps-bin plasma-desktop plasma-workspace plasma-framework kde-runtime-data kactivities-bin kwalletmanager kdepim-runtime qt5-image-formats-plugins gnustep-common kpackagelauncherqml kpackagetool5 ksshaskpass docbook-xsl gdb-minimal konsole polkit-kde-agent-1 socat.
Spent an alarming amount of the day screwing around with window managers.
Added a bit to my i3 config.
The only have two real gripes about i3:
moving windows to a new layout is much more fiddly than it was in wmii,
and I'd love to have cwm's label/search windows feature.
Hmm. This could be the basis of a window label/search feature in i3:
% xwininfo | grep 'Window id'
xwininfo: Window id: 0x1a00006 "bava zsh bava ~"
% i3-msg '[id="0x1a00006"] focus'
Wait, do "marks" already do this? Roughly, yes.
bindsym $mod+m exec i3-input -F 'mark --toggle %s'
bindsym $mod+f exec i3-input -F '[con_mark="%s"] focus'
Get a list of set marks:
% i3-msg -t get_marks
It's not as slick as cwm, but it works.
I guess the next thing to think about is whether I can simplify my config.
Breakfast: carrots, almonds, cheese, coffee
