Were all the tests available at the same time? Usually there are different times for submitting tests and also for assignments. I've never taken a course where you can just submit them whenever you want. For assignments, maybe, possibly with some penalty. But never for tests.

Better Call Saul. I find it so amazing how they were able to take an existing (brilliant in its own right) story, and extend it in both past and the future. It fits in so nicely. There are very few (if any) plot holes, and the story is enjoyable in its own right. Add to that the superb acting of almost everyone, and the elite cinematography. I don't think there's a single aspect of this show that I don't like.

Never have I ever failed an exam.

I only use my own installer scripts with LURE, so I'm not sure about the safety of the publicly available repos. But the project itself seems to be pretty solid and reliable.

AUR. If it doesn't exist on AUR (very unlikely, but happens sometimes), I make a package for it.

On non-arch distros, I often use LURE.

Navidrome does that. I think you just used a bad frontend. Try Tempo if you're using Android. Or Feishin on desktop.

I've been very happy with Navidrome. I have it accessible on a subdomain, so I can just use it from wherever I want. Feishin is a great frontend for Linux desktop, and Tempo is a great frontend for Android.

My friend uses Jellyfin instead of Navidrome, and he's also happy with it. Both the frontends that I mentioned work with Jellyfin as well.

I mostly eat leftovers from last night's dinner for lunch.

Right in front of me is a guy editing a >10 page LaTeX file in Overleaf on a 13 inch laptop. The sidebar takes like 1/3rd of the screen. The editor in around 3 inches in width, and he needs to zoom into the PDF preview to read it.

My point in, some people simply don't care about anything.

I've heard many people complain about DuckDNS. Personally use desec.io for DDNS and it's been solid.

I prefer Office 365 online.

Getting a job won't make things easier. Most people need human friends to live a fulfilling life. I think you might be imagining that people dislike you, as we socially awkward people often do. Just try talking to people, and you'll surely make a few friends. I'm socially awkward, but make it a point to attend some social gatherings outside of classes/job so that I'm basically forced to talk to people, no matter how hard it is. If you're just starting university, it'll be easier as everyone is trying to make friends, and there'll be many open events. For later years, it might be a bit harder, but try joining some clubs. I've found astronomy clubs to be pretty chill and welcoming to new members.

Just make it a point to attend some social events. There will definitely be people who will appreciate your personality, just give them the chance to get to know you.

(All of this is assuming you don't have some underlying mental condition. If you find it hard to follow this advice, maybe seek help from a professional.)

I want to get a new VPS. It'll mostly be used to host lightweight Docker images, and reverse proxying through Caddy. So, decent CPU and fast network speeds are the main things I need.

I have a cheap VPS with RackNerd. It's fine, but only has a single CPU core, which gets overwhelmed if multiple connections are trying to pull stuff from some service. So, I guess having multiple cores is a requirement as well.

I want to spend around $5/month, but willing to go a little higher if it's worth it. Any suggestions are appreciated.

P.S. I'm based in US and would prefer something in here for lower latency.

Update: Hetzner's CX22 IPV6 only plan seems to be very good in terms of price-performance ratio. But the servers are in Europe. I'm planning to try it out for a while and see how the latency is. It's great that they don't lock you in with yearly plans.

 

I currently run a personal wiki for some notes, recipes, and stuff. It's set up using Wiki.js as the server. I'm the only regular user, and I feel like it's a bit of an overkill.

Does someone have any suggestions for a more lightweight wiki server? I tried DokuWiki and mostly like it. But the UI is very old and dare I say, ugly. I love the UI of Wiki.js btw.

My main criteria is that it should be lightweight. I don't need fancy editing features. Happy to work with raw html or markdown files.

I need some kind of permission management to hide some private wikis from the public, but otherwise I don't really care.

I currently use TickTick for managing my todo tasks. i haven't been able to find an FOSS replacement for it yet.

The main features that I need in an app like this would be:

  1. It should be accessible from the desktop. Don't necessarily need an app, a website is good enough.
  2. It should have a decent android app with a home screen widget for listing all the upcoming and overdue tasks.
  3. It'll be really nice if it can interpret date and time from the task description to add reminders. For example, writing "Remind me to get some milk at 6pm" will put a reminder for that task at 6PM.

Please let me know if you know about such an app. Thanks.
