Some apps in Brewfile require Rosetta 2 (logitech-options failed first time)
`mas` requires you to be signed into App Store, but I can't do that until 1Password is set up, which happens after brew bundle is run once (chicken and egg here) I'm just gonna run it again after iCloud sign-in step
They renamed their thing since I made this, I guess (they also got acquired by Akamai, so I hope this thing doesn't disappear in the future) Additionally, their installer is broken so I fixed it for myself in https://github.com/expandrew/www/commit/de610620f391106014a6bef16e51ff82baa1db91 To install, I used: `% curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/expandrew/www/fix-macOS-11.2/kr | sh` (instead of their `% curl https://krypt.co/kr | sh`)
Python 3.6.8 didn't seem to install on M1 so I am bumping this to the latest version of Python
I had to run a command to add this to .zprofile after I installed Homebrew
The output from Homebrew installer was:
==> Next steps:
- Add Homebrew to your PATH in /Users/amw/.zprofile:
echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> /Users/amw/.zprofile
eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"
zsh doesn't seem to work without this, so I added it and it worked
This came out different after I set up Krypton so I am gonna go with it
Fine I guess I'll commit a lock file 😩
- Move that Homebrew shellenv command to .zshrc like everything else - Add some conditionals so it won't throw errors on Intel
Krypton turns this on by default but the gpg program is at a different path on each platform so I get errors on one or the other depending on how this is set I looked into [includeIf] conditionals within gitconfig but it only works for specific paths or branches so I can't really use it I'm turning it off because it's not explicitly necessary
MonitorControl doesn't work with M1 Macs yet so I'm using eqMac in the meantime to control the output volume to my LG 27QN880-B over USB-C Related: MonitorControl/MonitorControl#323

Just some dotfiles fixes from setting up a new M1 MacBook Air
I hadn't really ever tested this flow from scratch - there are some things I should probably address at some point, but it's a question of how much I really care since I actually run through this pretty infrequently
Brewfile and iCloud circular dependency
"Chicken and egg" situation of needing to be logged into iCloud/App Store to install things with
mas, while needing to install password manager in order to log into the App StoreThe
massteps in Brewfile require me to be signed into the App Store, but I use Brewfile to install 1Password (which is where I get the password to sign into the App Store)... so I'd either need two separate Brewfiles (one for non-App Store, one for App Store), or, I can just re-runbrew bundleagain later in the setup (I'm choosing this way, because it's needlessly complicated to do it the other way)Krypton
Krypton's installer is broken - their installer thinks 11.2 is not supported ...
I considered using Homebrew to install it but when I tried that, it wanted me to install the full version of Xcode and that's stupid just for this one app
I ended up forking their repo and fixing it on my fork, then pointing the install step to my fixed script
I was close to giving up on Krypton entirely, but I chose not to - it still feels nicer than generating and managing keys myself (even though that would've been faster in this situation). I may need to replace Krypton soon, because the company got acquired and it seems like the project is not active anymore
MonitorControl doesn't work yet
I found that MonitorControl isn't supported yet for Apple Silicon (MonitorControl/MonitorControl#323). The main reason I use MonitorControl is to control the volume on my LG 27QN880-B, so I found a different solution - eqMac - to control the output volume to my monitor. I added with Homebrew and it seems to be working - see c26c726
