Karabiner

Grumbled on Twitter about the MBP TouchBar as a Vim user. @genehack mentioned I could map Caps Lock to Control (my usual) and Escape, given the right tools. Ten minutes later I had Karabiner Elements installed, a keyboard rule imported, and Vim happiness once again.
Definitely going to mess more with Karabiner.

One bright thing about those godawful MBP touch bars: Spending more time in editors other than Vim.
(Tried swapping caps lock with Esc, but muscle memory + pinky issues needs it to be Control)

We’ve reached the “talking through a mouthful of toothpaste” comfort level in our relationship.

Me, after watching Mrs Geek deal with yet another annoyance: “I’m proud of you!”
She: “Why?”
Me: “You haven’t murdered anybody!”
She: “Let me tell you, it’s a daily occurrence – struggle. It’s a daily struggle. Um —”
Me: “oh no you’ve said too much”

Despite having to deal with this ridiculous nonsense we call “life” I’ve made progress in my plan to incorporate Tumblr style short notes on my site. Soon: automatically forwarding notes to Mastodon/Twitter. Later: indieweb stuff.
