Brew cask installs

brew cask install firefox ungoogled-chromium telegram iterm2 blisk vlc transmission little-snitch visual-studio-code background-music ... 

Configure Chromium with adblocker specials

Configure iterm2 and omz

  • brew install zsh
  • Install oh-my-zsh sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh)" and optionally the Darcula theme. Special thanks. You might need to fix this issue [oh-my-zsh] Insecure completion-dependent directories detected: by editing zshrc.
  • Install zsh-syntax-highlighting. Enter open ~/.oh-my-zsh and git clone the repo. Then edit zshrc with nano ~/.zshrc, making sure zsh-syntax-highlighting is the last plugin in plugins, and source ~/.zshrc to complete changes. DO NOT INSTALL WITH BREW BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW TO CONFIGURE IT.

Configure BTT

Conda, because it's a lot of trouble to migrate everything to something else

I had no choice because the new 16" MBPs come with stock Catalina :( I forgot how I installed anaconda already.
