I’ve had enough of the world

I didn’t know what you meant by ‘lemon party’ so I looked it up… I don’t know what kind of pubs you’re frequenting, but have at it!

Ugh, this isn’t a jab at you but it pisses me off when old money employers call it “return to work” … Like wtf do they think we’ve been doing this whole time?

As others have said, I’m in the “put time in, get shit done” camp.

Provided I deliver a job well done, my bosses don’t give a fuck what or how many hours I clock per week.

I use Qwant sometimes but it’s sourced from Bing. Searx is better if you can self-host. Kagi is better if you can afford to pay (but you asked for free).

Fellow IT guy here, I absolutely hate working from the office. Home life is my life and work life only matters to me insofar as it’s necessary to my home life.

Anything taking my brain from home mode to work mode is an obstacle that should be avoided.

iPhone is pretty weak for that but you can also use Garageband on your phone to do the conversion.

Tied my left hand into a pretzel trying that one

DDG isn’t the paragon of privacy. Try Qwant or StartPage.

Those Broadcom wireless cards gave me PTSD. The only way I got one of them working was compiling the raw firmware blobs into my kernel on a Gentoo stage 3 install… I shutter imagining administering that system as my daily driver. It was a good learning experience but I’m not cut out for that level of effort just to surf the web, open some documents, and play DOOM.

OpenWRT on Netgear for DNS and DHCP

pfSense on CP2200 for VPN, packet filtering, SSL inspection, and unbound

TrueNAS on TerraMaster for NFS and iocage running Jellyfin

Raspbian on RasPi4 for ICA, LDAP, SNMP, Syslogs, etc
