broke the Italian stock market for a couple hours

lesee

redesigned my trail camera to use an ardunio turn the old raspi based camera off and on using a mosfet, and assembled a psu so it will run off of 2 x 1860s rather than a usb power bank.

managed to get a wireless mini webserver working on esp8266(esp-01e) - very flaskey tho, need to get it stable and link it to a temp/humidity sensor - also scavenged a lipo from an old ego-ecig, added a charger/protection module and test powered the 8266 from it successfully

partially built a solar temp/pressure/humidity logger by modding a poundland solar garden light

redsigned two workshop module presentation slides + handouts for a local mental health support group I go to

wrote two blog entries for a local conservation group I also go to

Opened up a programming book and read whole paragraph.

I installed umatrix. Now every site i visit is broken. I'm going to spend dozens of hours configuring it because /g/ said i needed it

>>61522698
I use uMatrix, I love it.

Once you understand how to work it it's pretty straightforward.

if a website isn't working properly click on the top half of a domain name on the left side and it turns green. This allows scripts from that domain to function.

green-list domains one at a time and hit refresh until the domain loads. Once you have a working configuration you can save your settings.

Btw, thats how to make it work stupid-style, which I am assuming would help you judging by the screenshot of your current settngs

Smart-style you look at what script it being blocked that is stopping whatever desired functionality from working and you only enable that type of script from that specific domain

Thanks for introducing this piece of software to me. I'm installing now and hopefully it will be high quality.

I have been wanting this kind of "customizing of web requests" since forever, so I'm happy to see that a (seemingly) mature tool exists.

This is how the net www is supposed to be explored.

naw, failing too many exams due to panic attacks.
I'm taking lots of meds and getting therapy, but most of the time I'm either suicidal or lethargic.
On the upside, I'll need a new liver by age 40.
tldr I'm an autistic faggot.

I managed to not kill myself after putting up with another week of bullshit at work.

Don't get a job in software development. It's a trap.
Keep programming as a hobby but don't get a job doing it.

>>61523655
True.

Replacing Google Play store with F Droid and all associated apps.

I'm having trouble finding a SMS app though other than QKSMS (which is no longer being updated)

I installed arch in vbox because I was bored but I had no idea what I was doing, even with the wiki, and I'm pretty sure I missed a lot of important settings and other small things.

But I mean hey it works, even though I don't have a wm or de yet.

I'm thinking of making the Rpi3 I have in my closet a dedicated server for my mobile devices. Would give me an excuse to have a Linux based server, as well as being able to mess with SSH more in depth and how to initiate a backup via SSH.

signal is free software, but relies on google play services
microg is a free implementation of google services framework
