Out here in southern Canada it is next to impossible to determine when to plant anything anymore.

This year we had 40° in february a few days. With -40° for a fee days. And -20° til around april.

The year before it was 30° from February onwards and we hit 45° more than once.

I love cilantro (coriander) which is extremely sensitive to heat and will bolt the moment it hits 35°. I used to grow 2 crops each year. Spring and fall. Can’t do that anymore. Not outdoors, anyway.

A decade ago i noticed the seasons were shifting sooner.

Now they are chaotic.

Chaos, Gaia and Eris are having a ball.

The largest of the 3 carriers in Canada.

Bell.

Does not support ipv6.

I write scripts that I use at boot.

Or whenever.

Funny that some apps tell you root is needed to do some things.

A little persistent frustration and failure can produce desired results.

Eg. Shizuku can’t start on boot without root.

Need to enable wireless debugging.

I wrote a horrific script that nmaps for ports in the wireless adb range.

Attempts to connect. If success, great. If fail. Do until yay!

Then it restarts adb in tcpip mode with a custom port of my choosing so,its available to other apps.

And another script to start shizuku using the shizuku script to run in terminal.

And I put those scripts in another script and put it in the .termux/boot folder

And ouila!

Shizuku starts at boot and other apps that rely on wadb can use it.

Oh, and it doesnt need a wireless connection.

I also ssh, proxy, nmap, scan, sftp, samba, etc.

It is the duty of all to report bugs in the code.

That link for orbot doesn’t go anywhere. At least for me. A bunch of qr codes - 3 of which 404. None get to a download.

The fdroid link 404s.

Anyway, here’s the current release for android

https://guardianproject.info/fdroid/repo/orbot-latest.apk

If you run Linux you can run it - you don’t need a dedicated server. You can config to your specs. See here https://community.torproject.org/relay/setup/snowflake/

sudo apt install snowflake 

or snowflake-proxy for just the server On debian/Ubuntu.

Termux can run the proxy using the same command

pkg install snowflake-proxy

And here’s the official site

https://snowflake.torproject.org/

Ironic, though, they don’t use the snowflake widget on their own site

But you can just open this page in any browser https://snowflake.torproject.org/embed.html

There is always a solution.

Vivaldi is a beast when it comes to handling memory. It has features that I’ve never found in other browsers eg. workspaces (similar to tab grouping extensions like sideberry in Firefox) . It still supports ublock. It can sync.

It is degoogled.

I use it on all my machines and android devices.

Another chromium based browser that I would HIGHLY recommended is Cromite - a fork of bromite. It is also recommended by the graphene OS team.

It’s chrome, without google. Plus a ton of security and privacy additions and options. It doesn’t have any added productivity or other features besides those.

It doesn’t have a sync feature, but exporting is a thing.

It is great with memory, too.

PS. I don’t have a computer or phone with more than 8GB ram.

(Don’t worry guys, I also use my own user.js in ff, use tor, mullvad browser, etc.)

Pipes etc.

A GUI can’t combine commands from several different programs and move data to and from and use that with the ease and explicit nature of a terminal.

Does nobody use info?

So much more in depth than any manpage.

Granted it doesn’t contain every app installed, but it gives very detailed and very verbose explanations, examplea, options, use cases, caveats, warnings, etc, for all of the most essential commands and functions

$ info

In the program these are basic commands :

-I # sets searching to always case insensitive -very necessary (upper case I)

/ # search for pattern

n # search forward
N # search back

You can also search from command line using

Info -k [pattern]

Just set up a windows *spits rig for a family member because old. My god the insanity of it all. From untoggling shit to stop ms *spits from spying and toggling other shit to stop ms *spits from spying, and dealing with uefi settings to get it to a level of security without allowing ms *spits to lock it down cost me a full day.

Then I had to deal with the ridiculousness that is their permission system to let them browse their own files from a different hard drive.

I love that it also sets up the first user as a full admin and I had to create another account and lock down all the stupid crap that would allow them to destroy everything.

Just the initial booting was longer than it would have taken me to install and fully set up the mint distro I had ready to install on my USB stick (for the use case they’d be using)

I was going to set up a server so they could access stuff and watch free stuff on their TV with the old PC, but that will have to wait for another visit.

Even I was astounded at the length of time it took. I was expecting stupidity but ms *spits has taken it way too far.

(I did install without any account at all though, and did manage to get full GUI desktop environment Ubuntu running in wsl though, so that was fun - for me)

I just have my old PC’s running Linux connected directly to the tv or projector.

I use a super basic webdav server or free ^{arr matey} streaming sites.

I sometimes sftp into devices.

That’s my setup.

You would maybe need to configure separate virtual interfaces for each VPN. And do some routing or a local redirecting proxy (tinyproxy is easy) to ensure things go where you want.

On android there are things that allow you to send traffic to different vpns or proxies by setting listening ports. Something like sagernet or proxychainNG or nekobox.

“You will own nothing and you will be happy.”

Extract all resources, concentrate all power, do war, collapse, repeat.

Glad you’ve found the solution.

There is almost always a solution in about:config to a number or privacy/security issues.

I have nothing to add except the appreciation for everyone who helped and amazement at the vastly differing ways people produced working results.

So… Never.

The ideas were patented 25 years ago.

This is exactly how I got into Linux .

Had some… Life troubles.

Started over.

Needed computer.

Local community employment/outreach/social support place had a volunteer run computer place in the basement (they also had a bike place, and a cafe or two, and some apartments, and they were the best community org ever…).

100$

I bought 2 over a couple years.

I’m pretty sure they had xubuntu.

Over 10 years later I still have both. And I just put mint 23xfce on one and use it as my living room media player - dvi to HDMI projector.

I have no need for a lot of stuff. I make work what I can. And I keep it working as long as I can however I can.
