I recently wrote about wtwitch (a CLI-client for Twitch) and while it’s a really good client, I was missing the ability to launch the streams via Rofi like I used to be able to do in the past with Twitchy.

I was recently made aware of doas, a simplified and lightweight alternative to sudo, which are two utilities to execute commands as another user.

I recently wrote about my new Twitch client wtwitch.

A neat feature with the tiling window manager dwm is the fact that it can swallow clients.

I just found out about a new Twitch client called wtwitch.

It all started a couple of years ago when I started to feel that my phone was becoming too distracting for me.

With the help of Playerctl it’s possible to control various media players like mpv, VLC, cmus, mpd, Spotify and even web browsers using the shell.

I came across some WebP-image the other day and wanted to convert it to a regular JPG.

Christmas is approaching fast, just like it does every new year.

I just noticed that I haven’t done a “my desktop” post here on my website, so why not make one now.

A long time ago my web browser of choice was Mozilla Firefox, and as most normal people I was using it primarily with my mouse and occasionally with some simple keybindings.

This is take two on my plaintext todo list.

A few days ago I was at something called “klädbytardagen” here in Sweden where I live.

As the title say, I would love to add comments to my website but there’s no good options out there.

The popular and the somewhat essential privacy add-on uMatrix for the web browsers Firefox, Chrom{e,ium} and Opera is now an abandoned project. uMatrix is an add-on for advanced users to block any class of request made by the web browser, like scripts, if…

It’s the fourth of October today and that means it’s Cinnamon Bun Day in Sweden!

For an indefinite future.

I gave my website a new look!

Something that has always been bothering me with the tool eix is the default colours when you use the Solarized colourscheme for your terminal emulator.

If you want to sync and manage both your CalDAV-calendars and your CardDAV-addressbooks via the command-line you’re in luck!

The command-line tool Audiotag is an easy to use Perl-script for editing the data tags in your music files.

It’s been more than 4 years since I wrote about my text-based media center over at my Swedish weblog.

Most users are probably already familiar with the common way to hide files and folders in Linux based operating systems, which is by adding a dot to the beginning of the file or the folder.

This article was originally included in the article “An introduction to web feeds”, but it turned out the be a bit too long so I split them up in two parts.

Web feeds is an easy way for users to stay up to date with websites and other services without even visiting them.

If you want to copy text to the clipboard in Neovim you can do so with xclip.

Something that has been overly annoying ever since I switched over to Neovim from Vim is the fact that my working directory has alway been my home folder, no matter what file I’m editing.

If you’re curious about your uptime statistics there’s a tool called uptimed that can help you keep track of your uptime records. $ uprecords # Uptime | System Boot up ----------------------------+--…

It is actually possible to use Reddit exclusively via web feeds, unless you want to submit or comment anything.

I don’t know why, but if you use the terminal emulator URxvt, the colour scheme Solarized and Neovim (or Vim) at the same time and then search for something, jump to the highlighted word, the cursor will then blend in a bit too much.

Ever since I retired my HTPC I have been using my desktop computer as my HTPC with my TV connected to it.

I installed rTorrent from source code so I could patch it with the colour-patch on my Raspberry Pi the other day and I thought I would document it here as well.

This issue was driving me nuts the other day, I could not find a solution to it and I’m not knowledeable enough to have figured it out myself.

With the help of the tool qlop from the collection of utilities called q applets you can check how long it took to install a package in Gentoo. qlop reads from your log $EMERGE_LOG_DIR/emerge.log and extracts relevant information. # qlop -Ht qtwebengine…

Post updated: 2021-02-15 — I added the section with the distribution kernel. 2021-05-23 — Hopefully less worse use of the English language.

I made this Gentoo vinyl decal at work the this week.

I had troubles with finding a high resolution and clean wallpaper with Gentoo, so I decided to try to make my own wallpaper.

Hello and welcome to my new home!

I like keeping a personal journal of what I do in life, it can be anything from every day stuff that I want future me to remember to various thoughts about anything.

I was cleaning up my configuration for ZSH the other day—which is probably a story for another time—it lead me to ‘break’ the font rendering by reverting it back to the defaults, which is if you ask me broken and hideous.

If you’re using Gentoo you’re probably annoyed with how hard it is to find the relevant part of the diff-output from etc-update.

My VPN-provider Integrity VPN recently rolled out their support for WireGuard.

I couldn’t find this documented somewhere and I had to do some reading before figuring it out myself, so I might as well document it here.

I installed Gentoo on my old media computer a few weeks ago.

Copying larger files and/or larger amounts of files with the shell command cp can sometimes be a bit lacking.
