x220 (;

So i just switched back disks in my x200 to Guix which in the end works *much* more stable than arch :o
Also, I can use next browser there, which wouldn't compile for the world on arch.

hm, so from my local #emacs I've just trumped through two servers, than sudoed and successfully run updates on database through sql-mode.

I've always thought of Chrome as a malware disguised as a browser, but looks like Google's camouflage has failed https://gizmodo.com/whoops-google-says-mysterious-wave-of-unbootable-macs-1838430057

I feel a longer note comming about how #emacs with eshell and tramp can really improve one's #DevOps workflow. Learning curve was steep, but I can really tell the difference.

Some time ago I wondered why I like to work in ACME so much, and switched to its colors in Emacs, sway, alacritty. Finally I've got the answer. (search for "color") https://plan9.io/wiki/plan9/lfaq/index.html

Protip: if you have many inboxes to check (10 in my case) with offlineimap it's better to use `-1` flag so it won't run checks simultaneously. It tends to fail very often, especially when you get passwords via password-store.

Dear #webdevs of mastodon. What are your recommendations for client-side rendering js framework? After trying out many available options I feel more like sticking to jQuery for that task...

I find it outrageous that the only "official" way to follow https://cve.mitre.org/ is via twitter. Not even an rss feed aside from external, synced source NVD.

Talking about stability and durability of solutions we're creating and deploying... https://www.itv.com/news/london/2019-05-21/london-underground-to-retire-ageing-92-year-old-signal-box/

So three weeks ago I gladly bought book bundle from #HumbleBundle. But the number of really not interesting messages and promotions I receive from them since makes me regret that purchase .

Being DevOps doesn't feel so bad when you realize that you get to celebrate both SysAdmin and Programmers day

Guix pro-tip. One should really start using more emacs wand guix mode as it offers much more documentation than official website and really streamlines configuration.

Dear #SysOps #DevOps how do you automate? What do you use? I myself have a love/hate relationship with ansible and still like to rely on Makefiles better.

Argh, I finally had planned everything to the last detail so I'll have the time to install guix again during some free time at work and than I forgot my spare drive to make it so... damn :/

Finally to managed to arrange somewhat minimalist working desk for myself at home. It took years to remove that whole bloat I thought I can't do without...

And after a day of usage I switched back to sway. Thankfully I currently don't have any work requiring calibrated screen (no ICC support on Wayland part yet)

Finally got my xmonad + xfce setup working. It turned out to be a little troublesome with xfce 4.14. Protip: go with xfce.config library defaults as much as you can and run xmonad with few seconds of delay. otherwise it's gonna ignore xfce-panel
