    Used to use vimium for a while in the browser due some RSI complaints. Years later a colleague of mine was bashing me I didn't know how to use vim. Just to prove point I taught myself the basics, started using vim shortcuts in my IDE. Few months later I started using NvChad, which is amazing btw. After finding out about LSP support etc, I knew I could just switch completely.

    Built my own config from scratch and been happily using neovim for about 2 years now.

    Alacritty, Konsole, or something else? Which terminal emulator do you recommend?

    I really enjoy alacritty, it provides you a terminal with nice defaults.

    For a bit more base functionality, such as tabs or split panes, you could look into kitty or wezterm for example.

    In the case of alacritty you'd need to look at other tools such as tmux or zellij for multi-terminal workspaces in one window.

    I do think they're visual pollution and I don't like looking at them at all. That said, I do understand they are needed.

    Just wish they'd find a way to stop birds from flying into them all the time.

    The first time I felt like I spent most of my time in cutscenes and figuring out what to do. The second time I just plowed through the main story and enjoyed the ride.

    Same here, really didn't have the feeling I was doing much fruitful work at all. So much energy spent in meetings, and political nonsense.

    It's refreshing to just get to focus on getting things done.

    Had to call the police because some kids were vandalizing a subway station. While that was going on there was a dude on a bench quietly doing what I hope was stroking his pet banana in his pants. Yay society.

    You can sync easily to another device on the same network via ssh for example. You can also call a script automatically after the backup has been created and do your custom stuff in there.

    I'm really liking borgmatic myself as a wrapper for Borg.

    EDIT: I don't have experience doing full OS backups. I only make backups of specific directories.

    Hi all, My use case: I have a server with two identical drives. I wanted to set up my second drive just like Proxmox did the first one; split between storage and VM's. After a lot of searching I did see people having the same question, but I couldn't find a complete answer. [Here's a small writeup](https://ptrck0.github.io/proxmox-hdd-setup/) on how to get it done, hopefully it'll help someone someday. If you see errors/improvements, please submit a [PR](https://github.com/ptrck0/proxmox-hdd-setup).
