tildeverse.org
since the last time i wrote a post here, i've registered the tildeverse.org domain and started moving some services over that were already intended for tildeverse use.
among those are gitea and the new link aggregator (which runs the same source as lobste.rs).
i've also started a phlog in my gopherhole with ~tomasino's new burrow gopherhole tool!
i'll try to post a bit more often too with updates from the tildeverse!

git remotes with ssh aliases
did you know that ~/.ssh/config aliases work for git remotes??
~/.ssh/config
Host gh HostName github.com User git IdentityFile ~/.ssh/gh_key
you can now use gh:username/repo as the remote in place of git@github.com:username/repo, which is much shorter and easier to type many times!
git clone gh:benharri/learngit
there are many other use cases for the ssh_config file. for example, here is my config for the tilde machine for easy ssh connections.
Host tilde HostName tilde.team User ben
then use ssh tilde to start a new ssh session. this also works with scp: try something like this scp file.txt tilde:workspace/. in place of scp file.txt ben@tilde.team:workspace/.
the ssh_config file is super useful. check man ssh_config for a full list of options!
