Dotfiles

Split into three directories:

• desktop and framework: for their eponymous platforms.
• shared: for both platforms. no need to stow from this directory as its contents are symlinked into both desktop and framework.

To install, in the directory for the platform:

stow -t ~ -v (find -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -xtype d -not -name '.*' -printf '%P\n')

Other System Considerations

Disable your ISP's awful DNS:

1. Install dnsmasq.
2. Disable and stop systemd-resolved or whatever other resolver may be running currently.
3. Put this in /etc/dnsmasq.conf:

listen-address=::1,127.0.0.1
cache-size=10000
conf-file=/usr/share/dnsmasq/trust-anchors.conf
dnssec
no-resolv
server=1.1.1.1
server=1.0.0.1
server=2606:4700:4700::1111
server=2606:4700:4700::1001
expand-hosts

1. Enable and start dnsmasq.
2. Put this in /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/dns.conf:

[main]
# completely ignore the DNS provided by the ISP
dns=none
rc-manager=unmanaged

1. Ensure that /etc/resolv.conf is not a symlink, and then put this in it:

nameserver ::1
nameserver 127.0.0.1
options trust-ad

1. Ensure that you have configured everything correctly by running dig archlinux.org. Verify that SERVER: ::1#53(::1) (UDP) or the IPv4 equivalent is present in the output.
