dot_files

xkcd comic about computer only being usable by the owner Image Source: XKCD #1806 by Randall Munroe.

These dotfiles have been mutating over the years as I've used Ubuntu as a primary driver at work (heavily customized with) i3wm and cool mechanical keyboards. I've also been using MacOS personally and professionally and SSHing into servers more so the tools tend to reflect that.

i3 and other Linux customization?

Want to go back to i3 or get some linux customization info? (Finally switching to a linux desktop for gaming?) Then go to commit 456b132dacdaf5dad1695aea823a81b82fd6c5a4 which is right before I removed the i3 folder.
