Using Linux Mint As My Daily Driver: Four Years On. This Year’s Theme: Settling Down.

9 minute read

Well, its that time of year again, and though I didn’t leave much time to write this article, I did take the time to plan it out beforehand. Not that many things about my use of Linux Mint as a daily driver have changed from last year, but I’m still looking back and checking on the differences. It’s been a fun look back on the years, and I hope you enjoy reading it!

I’m not the biggest user of Vim/Neovim… but it became REALLY useful for a funded project I did

19 minute read

For that same project I hosted a conference presentation for back in July, I decided to start using Vim/Neovim (Neovim specifically) for a very specific reason that ended up being very useful to me for said project. This article goes into depth about how I got to using Vim/Neovim, and also how I continued using Neovim afterwards from there. This isn’t going to be a tutorial, though I will show the most useful Vim/Neovim commands I’ve learnt so far (as of the time this article goes live). Hope you enjoy it!

I Upgraded My Uni Laptop To Linux Mint 22. It Went Alright… Eventually.

Getiing the webcam drivers to work was a bit of work, but I eventually got there in the end. The rest of the process went somewhat smoothly (keyword: somewhat). Now that I actually remember (mostly) how mintupgrade worked during the upgrade process, I can actually write an article about it!

Well, the time has finally come to do one more of these, and this year I took the time to plan out what I was going to say. Things are a quite different, now that I am effectively using a different laptop now that my red one got borked. Also, this post is far longer than what I usually write, but I split it up into subsections that can basically count as articles in their own right. I hope you enjoy reading through all of this as much as I have enjoyed writing all of this!
