Fix java home

This is currently ubuntu's location. Fix it to be OSX location

Investigate XDG_CONFIG_HOME

$XDG_CONFIG_HOME is used by a number of programs including git to place config dotfiles in a common directory.
By default it is ~/.config but could be overridden.

I should investigate using it for OSX which does not set this value and investigate setting it explicitly in linux to ensure they both point at the same location.

I should also move my config files to that new location and remove code that implicitly references it, for example the global git ignore: https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore

Investigate NixOS

Determine if NixOS might be viable.

• Check OSX compatibility and functionality
• Check if code is portable between OSes
• Check for overlap with Brew/Brew Cask/Brew MAS
