    Why am I like this?

    Procrastination

    And how can I make it stop?

    Any well known method that you can probably find on youtube, but the general idea is that you need to overcome the psychological barrier of just starting the task. How you do that is up to you.

    Once you start, then you will naturally continue. And once you get in the habit of not dismissing tasks, then you will find it easier to do them from the beginning.





  • The fact that CachyOS more or less successfully replaced Manjaro’s purpose I guess is evidence of Manjaro’s issues.

    I forgot but I think Bazzite had similar complaints (due to its use of silverblue) in which case it was just more straightforward to use Fedora or OpenSUSE if you don’t want to work with the read only root system.

    Downstream distros need to bring additional value to the table to be worth using, otherwise there’s really no need if you can make a package group that accomplishes the same thing in one go.




  • (I don’t need strong censorship resistance; it just has to work in offices and hotel WiFis.

    Wireguard on 443 or OpenVPN + Stunnel on 443

    Wireguard is easier to setup because there’s no OpenVPN app that packages stunnel (afaik), so you have to run 2 apps on your phone to make it work.

    A server like caddy can also accept HTTPS traffic for some regular websites next to the VPN server.

    Wireguard uses UDP, so just run whatever you want on 443 TCP with caddy (unless you want QUIC for some reason?)

    Anything beyond that and you’d be looking at using a proper obfuscation solution like Shadowsocks or obfs4, in which case you should look into Amnezia or Tor bridges.


  • I’m really disappointed that someone hasn’t just made a standalone userspace addon to implement the feature, shoved in down California’s throat, and told them to come back with complaints once they can find where BSD came from.

    Adding this type of “support” is just giving legitimacy to crappy legislation. I would not bother even creating the underlying system so some underpaid google intern can make his age verification app 2% faster.

    This entire fiasco could have been a bash script that uses a new file in /etc to store birthdays.
