Bye vscode, hello zed

In my last post I mentioned the use of nvim as my editor. While I like nvim, there was a problem I couldn’t fix: copy/paste using SSH+tmux. And I don’t want to go back to vscode, so I’m trying zed now. They have a nice remote development module via SSH. So far so good! Working fine both on Windows and Linux. 👍

For monitoring services I’m using Beszel now.

Clubintosh

Just finished a small side project, Clubintosh, for Computer Club (a podcast about tech). On September 3 we had a meetup and we could bring some gadgets. One of those was a playdate. I bought it in 2021 because I always wanted to create my own game. While it’s not a game, it was cool to create something and launch it on my playdate. I have some ideas for a next project for my playdate.
