I switched from an ARM version of Openwrt on my Linkstar H68K to a Beelink EQI12 powered Proxmox instance running Openwrt on a VM. Used ChatGPT to debug it and set up multi-wan failover for it. Works excellently.

This is so damn cool! I love that you have MS Paint too xD

I think the sweet spot is 10 inches. I have a Boox Tab Mini C and a Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra. Both feel unweildy for different reasons. For my next tablet I'll get something in 10 inches. I wish Samsung made better options for that size.

Waves. XD

Responding to this just in case I need this in India one day.

Piracy is not a problem India needs to deal with, we have bigger fish to fry. Accessible knowledge is absolutely necessary here, with even the educated masses now believing in complete hokum.

I hope this gets overturned, but then again, if you're using the internet without a privacy-first VPN like mullvad, GG.

Burnout. I'm enjoying building things again, I burnt out because I didn't finish projects.

I finally do now.

I have done so much in the last 3 months.

1. Cleaned up my personal website and blogs 2. Built a couple of learning tools for myself - https://rfc.stonecharioteer.com and https://github.com/stonecharioteer/goforgo 3. Setup OpenWRT and Adguard+Unbound at home, with a non-trivial failover with multiple WANs.

It's helping heal my burnout, something that crippled me for years and kept me from my side projects. It showed in my career too, because I've stagnated since 2021. I'm trying to improve now, and I'm relying on Claude Code and ChatGPT (albeit on legacy models) to do so. 3.

It seems like you burned out on writing this comment

I joined 3 seed->Series A startups where I didn't know one of the cofounders. I would never recommend it. Only join early startups if you have worked with at least one of the cofounders before.

Please remain up. Libgen no longer works. I've used IRC for fiction and non-fiction but tech books needs Anna's Archive and Libgen. I buy the physical with company budget to pay the author but I need DRM free ebooks to read comfortably on my Tab S9 Ultra.

libgen is still there

Not accurate. You are probably looking at a site like https://libgen.ac/ which states clearly at the top: "Not a Part of Library Genesis. ex libgen.io, libgen.org"

The real one has been down for a long time.

All original mirrors currently seem down. But other mirrors are up. Check here: https://open-slum.org/

The pirate bay's been down for a long time too. And yet...

What’s the url?
