I have had a couple of interviews in the last week. Feels like momentum is picking up in the local job market now that the year has flipped.
I am really wanting to buy a Nokia N810, but am waiting until I am employed...
On my Thinkpad x201, I have switched to BSPWM from I3. I have used this WM in the past. This time, it was dead simple as I was already using SXHKD for keybindings. I have also expanded my use of dmenu scripts to do useful things like open a file in gvim from a list of common choices.Dmenu is by far the best suckless program as far as universal utility.
I have also switched back to using Termite as my terminal emulator. I was using lxterminal in I3 due to image preview working better than the other terms I tried (in ranger). However, BSPWM breaks lxterminal. Initially termite would not display images either. I installed ueberzug and ranger from github. Configuring ranger to use ueberzug as its image method thus fixed the issue and it all works beatifully in termite.
I have been acting as a technical advisor for a talented local band here in Rock Springs. First, some weeks ago, I installed Ubuntu Studio on a laptop for them. Then today gave some training on connecting a microphone to their setup. I may end up mixing the EP they are working on. I look forward to this. They are frigan rad AF.
