This bigly. Everyone innately deserves respect. You can absolutely lose it for being a wanker.

“Respect is earned” needs to die in a fire.

Neat project!

While this might not solve all of your use cases, did you consider a tool like mise?

Theres a number of other options out there such as asdf-vm and others who’s names I can’t recall. I recently moved from asdf to miss but its a great way to install things on different machines and track it with your dotfiles, or any other repo you want to use. Mise has tons of configuration options for allowing overrides and local machine specific versions.

It won’t tie into apt for your upgrades but you could just alias your apt update to include && mise up.

This is all spot on. Listen to this kind internet soul.

If you don’t want to finish uni, nothing wrong with not doing it. “To get a good job you have to finish college” is total bullshit, and so is “do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life”.

Find a career that interests you if you can, but more importantly go a route that will let you lead the life you want. So you can work and then have time for your hobbies.

So many trades are well paying and you might find them more interesting than they seem on the surface. For me, making things (physical and software) tickles my lizard brain and for you that could be electrical work, mechanic work, software, plumbing, engineering, sales, etc.

Some will need a degree, some won’t but one day you will find something in between “I don’t hate my job” and “this is awesome work”. That is where you want to be. Then you can figure out if you like hiking, building models, wood working, gaming, fitness things, disc golf, reading, golf golf, etc and

Life’s not a race but you only get the one so make sure youre doing what works for you. What works for you can be shockingly hard to figure out but its worth time putting in the effort to do so.

Definitely get professional help. Its scary to talk to someone or even tell your parents you think you need to but its worth it. Therapy really helped me out. Good luck and remember you’re not alone!

Check out zed or lapce. Both are open source but native editors as opposed to chromium with near first class vim support. Much faster but less stable as neither are 1.0 yet. Additionally they have great LSP features.

That being said I just can’t give up my vim and terminal workflow but I’m actively following both projects.

I feel this in my bones. Right to the core. Anything important ain’t happening on a mobile for some reason.

Any links or thoughts on sane OpenWRT settings for a home network? I’m a networking noob but learning slowly and would love some good reading or tips.
