You have a good point... I always tended to write my stuff down chronologically, with the reveal at the end, but I'm not sure if in the age of 10-minute Youtube videos that still works well. I'll see if I can at least link the last page, so people without patience can go there directly.



Have you written a blog post about your dev machine? I see it is a thinkpad model. What distro are you using? Is that a tiling window manager? Are your dotfiles public? :)


Nothing special - Thinkpad T470s, running Debian, with Awesome as a window manager and Kitty as my main terminal. No public dotfiles as I feel most of them are duct-taped together and perpetually in the precarious state of only being one apt-get update away from failing because of something deprecated I put in 15 years ago.


On a related note: what are you using for designing your 3d prints?


OpenSCAD. Textfile in, 3d model out, just like I like it. As an indication: this is what I had to type in to get the VT102 model: https://github.com/Spritetm/esppdp/blob/master/case/vt100.sc...


Thanks, now for the cliché: vim or emacs?


None. Mcedit. I'm not even kidding.
