I've this tendency to postpone getting things done until "everything's just right"... which, of course, tends to mean never.

It turns out that tinkering with an underlying shell environment and/or operating system couldn't be a better example of that. For me.

And I'm not saying there's no value in such tinkering. But I pretty much exhausted the iceberg underbelly value of doing such many years ago, so that bringing tried 'n true dotfile content to new places is really all I need do to be ready to rock.

My distro hopping and tinkering has slowed way down too, and I also keep a file of basically how I like everything set up in case need be for disaster recovery
