I also want to be able to SSH to this machine from my primary.

Updating GlobalProtect

Plus, that last system update put the new Photos app in my Dock. Time to drag that into oblivion

Doing some experimenting, requires screen sharing to be on.

Alfred first

Then some OS stuff

I was holding off on the OSX update because of VPN issues, but updates on my other laptop confirms we’re fixed.

Likely lots more to come in this department.

To start, create and edit ~/.bash_profile and add

export CLICOLOR=1

# Colorize Prompt
export PS1='\[33[0;33m\]\t\[33[0m\]:\[33[0;32m\]\u\[33[0m\]:\[33[0;96m\]\w\[33[0m\] \[33[0;43;30m\]$\[33[0m\] '

And source ~/.bash_profile to apply the changes right away.

Later, I’ll probably switch to Impromptu.

Divvy is a really handy window resizing tool for Mac. Following the install instructions, I give Divvy accessibility access.

Once running, a change of settings. Start at login, and a global shortcut.

And more rows and columns for finer control.

After waiting for it to install and me to have some time, finally ready to finish this part.

With Xcode installed, I can finally use git on the command line. This is handy because I have my ssh keys backup up in a private git repo on Bitbucket.

First, I manually grab the my Bitbucket keys out of that repo so that I’ll be able to clone it.

Once I have those keys, and clone the repo to ~/.ssh and get the rest of my keys and config. Then I make sure to chmod 600 ~/.ssh/*

 

Because for some reason

So we install Xcode

Clipboard history is the best.

Got down to 95% just waiting for it to calculate the time remaining. Poor ol’ MacBook

I have a 2 spare batteries I’ll swap in and check on, though I don’t think they’re fare any better.
