Thanks!

This is one of those “no shit” things that Rachel Carson talked about in 1962.

So do you run a tailscale exit node on one of the public clouds or a VPS provider like DigitalOcean?

Nice app! I do have an android device sitting around doing nothing. Will use this app if I ever get into it!

Ah, I’m not going there yet. OpenWRT is an eventual goal. But right now I’m stuck with devices that do not support it. I’m ok with alternate solutions.

huh. Never thought about public pihole servers. So nice of those folks running them.

I don’t understand how you’re saying you’ve stopped self-hosting VPN and are still using tailscale. Are you using their SaaS service? Does that allow you to set your own DNS? Do they have speed limits? Are they zero-logs?

OP how old are you?

And I mean age range. Not exact age.

Discord is social media. What you need, my friend, are hobbies. Or the meetup app. Or to just go look up events in your area and go to them. Hobbies work because then you can find other people locally who are also into your fetish hobby.

Please don’t poke holes into my fantasy.

The ability to stop time and still interact with the world. Do you know how many books I have on my TBR?

I’d like to add to the voice about Memo. It’s very nice, stable, loads of features if you want them and actively growing.

I think of my “diary” as a stream of consciousness. Thus Memo makes sense. It feels like a personal Twitter feed.

Tagging, photo upload, links. All that works great in Memo.

Who the fuck rates a movie out of 4 stars? USA Today is who.

I get I and F. What’s O?

So wait, the people who need the aid, came to the trucks and asked for the aid / demanded the aid, so the UN checks notes suspended the aid?!!!?!

They always have.

What are you passionate about outside programming? Reading? Writing? Hiking? Tv or movie watching? Connecting with friends? Gossiping about the neighborhood?

What ever it is… do that. Focus on that. Then, if you still want to build personal projects, see if the tools around those hobbies are adequate and to your liking. If not, there you have it. Your next project.

If everything is good and you enjoy your hobbies, please understand that software engineering is a job. You don’t need to do it outside work as well. It’s like asking brick layers if they have personal taj mahals that they’re building brick by brick outside of their daily work of building other people’s houses. They’ll look at you like you’ve lost it.

To be fair, these posts seem to be youth who are hating the immediate environment which is affecting them. Not the entire country. However in typical youth hyperbole, they’d rather write that they hate the whole country rather than specific people in it.

Also, this can be generalized to be youth of literally any country in the world. These issues they’re bringing up are part of the human condition.

Don’t allow. Never allow. Never. Allow.

I use this almost every time I need to launch something on my Portainer setup. It’s not perfect but works like a charm to convert simpler docker runs into yaml files.

Yeah the Nokia thing really blew my mind!!
