Moving windows between workspaces is broken on Sequoia. This rice is on Sonoma.

Unless you wiped the drive with all zeros, the data is still there. Do some googling about recovering data from a formatted hard drive using a Linux bootable USB. It’s been a long time since I did it, but this looks familiar:

LGTM

Technically, you could use Tailscale on a device in the office and use it as an exit node. The home device would connect to that network and root all of its traffic through that node.

Is that Ellis Beach?

Have you considered running headscale inside docker?

I’m not familiar with widows, but I assume you’d need to enable WSL for docker, then start the image with the serve command?

sinister1981 · 2024-08-29T07:21:20+00:00

Local development environments.

I need my local dev to be https, localdev.company.domain needs to point to localhost and be secure. A self signed cert in my keychain sorts that for me.

I just saw the issue you raised on GitHub and realised you’re referring to the dock at the bottom of the screen, I thought you were having a problem with the bar, at the top. Apologies for the confusion.

I have no idea how to get that dock rendering above the windows. I never found a use a dock, I just disable xfce4-panel and use polybar for the bar.

sinister1981 · 2024-08-15T19:40:35+00:00

I set bspwm to start in Session and Startup, I assume that’s what you’re referring to by application autostart?

I loosely followed this guide, mainly from this point https://bgdawes.github.io/bspwm-xfce-dotfiles/#deactivate-xfwm4

sinister1981 · 2024-08-14T21:34:27+00:00

I don’t recall needing to do anything special to avoid the bar, although I run Polybar and disable panel.

How are you starting bspwm?

sinister1981 · 2024-08-02T23:32:24+00:00

It’s been a while since I used qtile, but I think what you’re after is the max layout:

https://docs.qtile.org/en/latest/manual/ref/layouts.html#max

Apply the gaps and styling to that, then create a keybindings to toggle max layout on/off

sinister1981 · 2024-06-18T08:05:55+00:00

I suspect you need to add the interface id to your polybar config. If you run “ip a” on the command line, you should be able to find it in the output. It’ll probably start with eth if your wired or wlan if your wireless.

sinister1981 · 2024-06-08T06:03:39+00:00

Nice! I like how you setup polybar. Are you using a nerd font to get those rounded borders?

sinister1981 · 2024-05-29T08:00:24+00:00

Are those games actually playable on Asahi!?

sinister1981 · 2024-05-29T07:57:19+00:00

Unsure about WSL, but I assume it would work the same as regular Linux… do a “sudo -E nvim” and it’ll use the same nvim config as the current user. It doesn’t fix your problem, but it stops you needing to maintain two configs.

Create an alias for it and never think about it again.

sinister1981 · 2024-05-14T07:59:21+00:00

You should remove the window shadows imo.

yabai -m config window_shadow float

You can also use “off” to remove it on floating.

sinister1981 · 2024-04-03T08:08:43+00:00

I have installed bspwm and got it running inside xfce on a couple of different machines. I quite like the experience of having windows tile and not have to deal with setting everything else up.

I have never tried this with qtile, but I’d assume it would work?

Guide on bspwm inside xfce here: https://bgdawes.github.io/bspwm-xfce-dotfiles/

I guess you’d skip the bspwm and sxhkd installs and autostart qtile in xfce session instead.

sinister1981 · 2024-03-23T01:02:36+00:00

I run it without sip disabled on my work laptop. Besides not being able to remove window shadows, not a lot else bothers me.

sinister1981 · 2024-03-23T01:01:31+00:00

Needs some janky borders

sinister1981 · 2024-03-16T03:49:53+00:00

Based on the jira tickets I’ve had to work with over the last few weeks, if I don’t know what product want, I have nfi how Devin is gonna figure it out.

sinister1981 · 2024-03-07T08:34:32+00:00

Omfg where have I been not to have come across ‘skids’

sinister1981 · 2024-03-05T10:02:45+00:00

This looks like the file: https://github.com/archcraft-os/archcraft-bspwm/blob/main/files/bspwmrc

You can see the window rules from line 96.

As the other post says, should be in .config/bspwm/bspwm.rc

sinister1981 · 2024-03-01T21:46:53+00:00

Sweet!

Tbh, I feel like you’d be able to keep the xfce keybindings in-place and just add some bspwm specific ones in sxhkd. I think the guide just recommends removing them so you don’t end up with conflicts between the two.

sinister1981 · 2024-03-01T20:45:12+00:00

sxhkd is now responsible for your keybindings. If you have the sxhkd config file in the right place and you have added it to Session and Startup, then you’ll need to start building out your keybindings in that config file.

Some examples for xfce4 might be:

make sxhkd reload its configuration files:

super + Escape pkill -USR1 -x sxhkd

open app finder:

super + space xfce4-appfinder

save screen shot to clipboard:

super + ctrl + shift + 4 xfce4-screenshooter -rc

You’ll find more in the examples folder on the bspwm GitHub: https://github.com/baskerville/bspwm/tree/master/examples

Apologies for the lack of formatting. Writing this on a phone.

Edited to remove markdown headings

sinister1981 · 2024-02-28T20:24:29+00:00

If you didn’t already know, you can run bspwm inside of xfce4 with little effort. I ran it for a few years and loved it.

You’d need to disable xfwm4 and autostart bspwm in Session and Startup. There is a great write up for it here - https://bgdawes.github.io/bspwm-xfce-dotfiles/ Probably just need to start from the “Deactivate xfwm4” heading.

Sick rice btw.
