How to Have “vim” Open Neovim or LunarVim
Here’s a quick post from me today. I recently switched to Neovim through the installation of LunarVim. I really like the feel of it a whole lot, and as an Awesome WM user, I can appreciate how the config is written in Lua. Besides that, I know that the usual command to enter Neovim is…

Get Goodies from Other Distros with the AUR and Github
It’s no secret that I love Arch Linux. Despite how I run Fedora on my ThinkPad for work, I have been using Arch regularly since 2020 on my desktop. I can’t see myself ever switching, although I would be lying if I said the occasional urge to distro hop didn’t come up sometimes. Ultimately, the…

Switching from spotify-tui to spotify-player.
I last wrote about spotify-tui a short while back. This was back when I wrote about how I made a Nord skin for it that doesn’t obscure the play time in the progress bar. As for the player itself, I didn’t really discuss it in much detail. Friendship Ended with spotify-tui… It should soon become…

Getting polkit-gnome to Work in Awesome WM
This is part of my quick tips for Linux. If you want the answer right away, feel free to scroll straight down to the section titled “Give Me The Quick Solution.” I won’t judge. I’ve been using Awesome WM for almost two years now. Despite my attempt to jump to a mix of XFCE and…

There’s No Reason to Run Manjaro
I realize this post may come off as rather negative, but I do want to make it clear that I don’t harbor some sort of hate for Manjaro. That said, I also didn’t write this post just for the sake of mindlessly bashing a specific Linux distro. If Manjaro had none of the issues I…

How to Use i3 with XFCE on Fedora
The other day, I saw a video from The Linux Cast on YouTube about how to set up i3 with XFCE. I was intrigued with the result at the end, as I had set up MATE with i3 last year on my Fedora system. However, I gave up on using it due to some overall…

More Nord! Extra Ways to Use The Theme
It’s no surprise that I love the Nord color scheme. Although I had known about it for years, my appreciation for it has only grown exponentially. I guess you could say I’m a Nord-aholic. When I think I might want to go back to Dracula or Gruvbox, Nord finds a way to keep me content…

Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron 15 Years Later: A Retrospective
I saw some of the recent news about Ubuntu 23.04’s release, Lunar Lobster, looking a little more favorable, or at least that was the impression I got from this video by DistroTube. Honestly, I haven’t really touched Ubuntu in the longest time and all, but this release, at least according to DT’s impressions, looks more…

Nord Dark Theme for spotify-tui
Featured Image: spotify-tui running Nord Dark theme in Alacritty with transparency enabled. I was listening to music on Spotify the other day, except I was using the spotify-tui client on Fedora. However, something minor bothered me about my setup on said app: The elapsed time in the center of the progress bar would become unreadable…

Always Upgrade Fedora to the Latest and Greatest via CLI
I’ve been using Fedora since version 33 was out, although 34 came shortly after I started to use it. It’s understandable since my ThinkPad Carbon X1 Gen 8 originally came with Fedora 33 out of the box. (Yes, Lenovo lets you order some systems with Linux installed on them from the factory.) But aside from…
