git: Change editor from vim to neovim
Neovim has some nice additions like honoring the blinking cursor from
kitty when in insert mode. I don't remember why I used vim instead of
neovim here, but neovim is mature enough that it should be an excellent
choice to use for many years to come.

gtk: Use flat color theme and icons
I originally made this change to take advantage of wpgtk, and although I
was successful and wpgtk was a cool experience, I am not that interested
in updating all my config files to use wpgtk instead of wal.

Since this was mainly useful for thunar and nautilus, and since I'm
considering using ranger only and writing my own scripts for additional
functionality, I may change this to a simpler theme in the future.

bspwm: Increase pointer_motion_interval
In the theoretical scenario that I use bspwm on a high refresh rate
monitor, this change makes it so resizing windows won't be limited to
60Hz.

polybar: Decrease height
This makes polybar less obtrusive, however I've been considering
removing it in the long-term to maximize screen estate. Although polybar
is cute, I don't *need* to know everything in the bar every second I use
the computer. Having specialized commands or keybinds that show certain
information seems more useful in this case.

Some information, such as the date and time, could become a part of the
wallpaper itself, making blank desktops more useful than they are now.
Although widgets are also an option, I have not verified how well these
work under my current setup yet.

vim: Open Shift JIS files with proper encoding
This makes dealing with certain Japanese files significantly easier
since we no longer have to worry about manually performing a Shift JIS
to UTF-8 conversion before opening the file in vim, nor do we have to
worry about manually changing the encoding with :e ++enc=sjis.

vim: Don't show spelling errors for CJK characters
This makes dealing with CJK files inside vim a much more pleasant
experience. Note that automatically handling Shift JIS encoded files is
something I haven't implemented yet, although a simple keybind could
make things more manageable.

fish: Export TERMCMD="kitty"
This change makes ranger open new terminal instances with kitty instead
of xterm.

fish: Add taskwarrior abbreviations
After many years of searching for an optimal task management workflow,
it seems like taskwarrior is the most ideal solution for me.

bspwm: Use left/up/right/down desktops
This was an experiment to see if I could make switching between desktops
easier. Instead of thinking about desktops in terms of their contents or
numbers, we can think about them in terms of gestures used to reveal
them.

The main advantage to this setup is that you can access any of the other
desktops with one keystroke. This is in contrast to having to press
super+tab twice. The other advantage is that the desktops are always at
a predictable location. One swipe to the right will always get you the
desktop on the right, whereas two super+tabs can land on any desktop.

picom: Fix flickering screen after resume from dpms
This appears to fix an issue where the screen would occasionally flicker
after resuming from dpms' screen blanking feature. So far I have not
observed any significant performance degradations.

Makefile: Decrease stow verbosity to 1
A verbosity level of 2 was cool during testing, but now that the
Makefile has been stable for years at this point, having all that
verbosity seems unnecessary. This change still shows when things are
stowed, but with less detail than before.

meta: Remove keystrings
As far as I can tell, dual-function-keys also works in a tty, so
keystrings is no longer necessary, and you don't have to worry about
making sure that loadkeys is ran either.

meta: Remove xcape and xmodmap
These are obsolete technologies that are no longer needed thanks to
dual-function-keys, which I'll add in a future commit. This also fixes
an issue where left control would behave like an escape key when tapped,
which caused a lot of accidental escapes.

Now it's possible to use the terminal in peace, and with the volume set
to a cool amount, without worrying about audio bells when scrolling
through man pages.

meta: Replace firefox with librewolf
I am personally not amused by some of the defaults that firefox ships
with and would rather not have to deal with them on new configurations.
Although it's possible to sync settings across devices or simply copy
the profile directory, the advantages of librewolf outweigh the cons for
my individual use case, at least for now.

sxhkd: Control mpv with mpris + playerctl
I personally love this setup for language learning and it emphasizes how
far one can go with customizing their setup when using a window manager
like bspwm + sxhkd. Although it's possible to achieve the same effect in
other desktop environments, sxhkdrc makes adding new keybinds extremely
simple and easy to maintain.

This used to be a separate script in my ~/.local/bin, however the script

meta: Remove alacritty
Although alacritty is an amazing terminal emulator, I am not interested
in maintaining configuration files for it at this time.

The current config works and is an excellent replica of the current
kitty config. If you have a desire to use alacritty, you can use the
files in this commit to get amazing support for things like pywal.

The reason alacritty is being removed is because it doesn't fully
support fcitx. Currently "inline input" doesn't work in Xorg, and it's
impossible to see input under GNOME Wayland.

For simplicity, only the terminal emulator that works the best for me
will be officially supported, since I've never had a reason to use
alacritty anyway.
