Used to use vimium for a while in the browser due some RSI complaints. Years later a colleague of mine was bashing me I didn’t know how to use vim. Just to prove point I taught myself the basics, started using vim shortcuts in my IDE. Few months later I started using NvChad, which is amazing btw. After finding out about LSP support etc, I knew I could just switch completely.

Built my own config from scratch and been happily using neovim for about 2 years now.

I had similar requirements. I switched to Baikal, which has been happily running in a docker container ever since.

Other than ublock:

• Vimium to let you scroll and navigate with your keyboard.
• Your password manager of choice.

I do think they’re visual pollution and I don’t like looking at them at all. That said, I do understand they are needed.

Just wish they’d find a way to stop birds from flying into them all the time.

The first time I felt like I spent most of my time in cutscenes and figuring out what to do. The second time I just plowed through the main story and enjoyed the ride.

Replayed RDR2 on the PS5, most fun I’ve had with a game in a while.

Had to call the police because some kids were vandalizing a subway station. While that was going on there was a dude on a bench quietly doing what I hope was stroking his pet banana in his pants. Yay society.

Im using borgmatic, a wrapper around Borg that has some extra functionality.

Very happy with it, does exactly as advertised.

Wireguard-easy is plain old wireguard with with a nice web interface for management, that’s all.

It’s easy to set up and use, I’d recommend it.

You can sync easily to another device on the same network via ssh for example. You can also call a script automatically after the backup has been created and do your custom stuff in there.

I’m really liking borgmatic myself as a wrapper for Borg.

EDIT: I don’t have experience doing full OS backups. I only make backups of specific directories.

They’re both good at what they do. Personally I switched from pihole to adguard, only because adguard let’s you use wildcard domains. This lets me point all of *.mydomain.com to one IP address.

You have full control over what you block and whitelist. So if anything goes wrong, you can just troubleshoot it and whitelist if needed. If all fails, you can always (temporarily) turn off all blocking in pihole.

Yeah sorry, I wasn’t aware the AI wars already spread into marketing-land

And so it begins, the marketing world has got its claws in AI.

My solution for a power efficient setup was to split it up: all the services I use but don’t need all the time, like jellyfin for example, I host on my nas. I only turn that on when I need it.

The stuff that’s running all the time, like home assistant, addblocker, etc, I run on a raspberry pi.

Might not work for everyone, but I’m happy with it.

I do exactly the same. I do not have a lot of data I feel a need to backup. I have a nightly job that zips and then encrypts my data, then rclones it to off site storage.

I have one 3B running adguard and a wireguard vpn server. Another 4B doing the same, plus kitchenowl and home assistant.

alt+z for saving, I guess?

From what I read it slow growing and pretty manageable as far as cancer is manageable of course. Hope he’ll make a quick recovery, and start growing that magnificent beard back.
