Also, I did am not encrypting the boot partition, and Im not setting up any sort of secure boot.
This means that an attacker could hypothetically replace your boot partition or firmware and keylog your password, so if you suspect your computer has been tampered with, *DONT* boot it up.
To reiterate, this setup by itself only protect your data if your powered down machine is stolen. It does not protect you data from being stolen in any scenario where your laptop is powered on after or during tampering.

There we go!
Our caps lock key is now a second control key!
Note that localectl does not seem to propogate our change to X11, unfortuanately.
To do it in X as well, simply run
{{<highlight console "linenos=false">}}
setxkbmap -option ctrl:nocaps
To do this in X as well, create a file in `/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/`, named something along the lines of `90-keyboard.conf` with the config:
{{<highlight console>}}
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "system-keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
EndSection
{{</highlight>}}
In your .xinitrc.
Some people may suggest `setxkbmap` as a way to do this.
However, unfortuantely, `setxkbmap` tends to be overwritten when a usb input device is plugged in or unplugged, and `xorg.conf.d` is the only persistent way to set it.

Stow can be found on pretty much every linux distributions package manager. If for some reason it is not, building from source is... suprisingly easy.
You can find the source http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/stow/[here], download `stow-latest.tar.gz`, and decompress it with `tar xvf stow-latest.tar.gz`. cd into the the uncompressed folder, and simply run `autoreconf -iv`, `./configure`, and `make`. The binary will be in `./bin/stow` free for you to move it into your `$PATH`.
