Motivation

I've never been comfortable working with VSCode since extensions make the startup time of the window instance slower than ever, especially regarding Rust Analyzer and Type script LSPs.Also styling the UI of the window is cumbersome, it's definitely not worth putting effort to it when you're using Linux.

Jetbrains products, meh, so many things I wouldn't bother myself using since I've already tried both Webstome and Rustover (Beta version).

Didn't have quite the time to make an IDE myself out of VSCodium clone and I've also looked forward a long time ago to use Nvim. I decided to give it a shot and got addict ed to it tbh.

👍 Good to know

⚡ Boot load time faster

Setting GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden in /etc/default/grub, it'll disable the screen of choosing boot options.

🔒 Storing passwords for SSH connections without prompting them

ssh-keygen -t rsa
ssh-copy-id -i saved-keygen-file.pub username@host
ssh username@host

🔑 Importing/Exporting GPG keys (Inspired from RedHat GPG migration manual)

Exporting keys + trust database

## export public key
gpg -a --export > pub_key.asc

## export encrypted private key (which will also include corresponding public keys)
gpg -a --export-secret-keys > private_key.asc

## export gpg's trustdb to a text file
gpg --export-ownertrust > otrust.txt

Importing keys + trust database

gpg --import private_key.asc
gpg --import pub_key.asc
gpg -K # ?? wtf
gpg --import-ownertrust otrust.txt
