# Dotfiles
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These are my dotfiles. As you will notice, they are quite simple. Over the
|
|
|
|
|
years, I have built up many complex and fancy init scripts for many different
|
|
|
|
|
programs, but I've come to realize that sometimes simplicity and defaults are
|
|
|
|
|
better.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The dotfiles here are just the basics—useful aliases and functions that
|
|
|
|
|
have stuck around throughout the years. They're minimal, but useful. The main
|
|
|
|
|
part of my `.ashrc` is the customized prompt, which supports showing the current
|
|
|
|
|
`git` branch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
My shell init scripts are written in POSIX shell, so they should work on any
|
|
|
|
|
shell. As I've hopped from Ubuntu to Arch to OpenBSD to FreeBSD and now to
|
2024-01-09 23:09:26 +00:00
|
|
|
Alpine, I've used a lot of shells, and I want my init scripts to work on all
|
2024-01-06 14:19:39 +00:00
|
|
|
of them out of the box.

## System Setup
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
My current operating system of choice is Alpine Linux. If I ever re-install,
|
|
|
|
|
this is the set up procedure:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```

|
|
|
apk add networkmanager-wifi wpa_supplicant
|
|
|
|
|
rc-update add wpa_supplicant default
|
|
|
|
|
rc-update add networkmanager default

### Firefox
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I use the following Firefox extensions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- [ClearURLs](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/clearurls/)
|
|
|
|
|
- [Bypass Paywalls Clean](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean)
|
|
|
|
|
- [Nextcloud Passwords](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nextcloud-passwords)
|
|
|
|
|
- [Plasma Integration](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/plasma-integration/)
|
|
|
|
|
- [uBlock Origin](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Files
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Theoretically, everything important that I care about should live in
|
|
|
|
|
`~/Documents` and `~/Projects`, so I just have to copy those folders over to new
|
|
|
|
|
systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Backup
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I use the following command to back up my stuff to my server, which then takes a
|
|
|
|
|
ZFS snapshot for me:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
rsync -av --delete --exclude .cache "$HOME/" server:$HOME/"
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Eventually I will use ZFS on my laptop.
