       Ghostty is a fast, feature-rich, and cross-platform terminal emulator that uses platform-native UI and GPU acceleration.

       > Ghostty is designed to work out of the box with no configuration for most users. Ghostty has sensible defaults, embeds a default font (JetBrains Mono), has built-in nerd fonts, and more. We are constantly challenging ourself as a project to eliminate any _necessary configuration_ to use Ghostty.

       There's also a [graphical configuration tool](https://ghostty.zerebos.com/settings/application) -- runs in the browser, you can import / export config.

       23
       +
       

     

       24
       +
       Homebrew installs packages to their own directory and then symlinks their files into `/opt/homebrew` (on Apple Silicon).

     

       25
       +
       

     

       26
       +
       Homebrew won’t install files outside its prefix and you can place a Homebrew installation wherever you like.

       I still need to figure out [[Email Clients]]. [[Spark Mail]] has been a total fail for me. Either back to a new, personal [[Missive]], or I try [[Superhuman]]. Or...I try the Apple Mail app for a while? With Spark Mail not working for me, I've just been using Gmail in browser on desktop.

       And Steam of course. Not really playing anything actively on the laptop, always down for a [Caves of Qud](https://www.cavesofqud.com/) session. Yes, my ice monk in [[Path of Exile]] 2 on [[Steam Deck]] is doing great, thanks!

       112
       +
       I've set Local hostname to `Altaria.local`, but "Boris's MacBook Air" still shows up in lots of places.

     

       113
       +
       

     

       114

       The "Use dynamic global hostname" looks interesting, too! I guess Dynamic DNS is built in.
