> how to secure VPS
> disable ssh password login

congrats, the only attack vector that's left is you
So good! And this is how to do it
Start with a small VPS first, see how far you can take it
Learn about security, and if you have an actual business, get a security/server guy to check your set up so it's safe for production
But slowly learning and building it up to your own virtual server farm with multiple servers is the way to go!
You'll be shocked running 25 servers at $5/mo = $125/mo!

ok, @yacineMTB why do I have to worry about the framerate of a video that I recorded using the built-in screenshot utility of MacOS
why isn't this automatically handled?

In the past week+ I've been in a state of near-constant crash out levels of anxiety and it has not been enjoyable to go through. Its the result of bad health (lack of sleep (baby) and lack of exercise (lazy/busy)) + noticing things change
I'm not sure if its noticeable. I'm erratic and strange to begin with. But maybe you noticed - my posting rates and my tone change.
What kicked it off was seeing more and more people around me (extremely!) addicted to youtube shorts / instagram reels plus personally being subject to an OOM more mouse-trap experiments to get me hooked onto them from google (not happening, bitch). There's a reasonable amount of experimentation to improve software - but I don't think blasting the population with something they never signed up for to *trap* them is good
I talk to engineers at these companies. I have friends. I know what's going on
I don't need to use instagram or facebook. I just stopped using them. Thankfully, facebook doesn't force me to dodge reels to use the messaging platform. But I need to use youtube to learn things about electronics and tech. I don't have a choice. Its not like i'm going to watch them. But every time I see yet another trap, I get reminded of the dread. I'm filled with pain. I know what's happening. It's not like I can even explain it to the people around me.
They're fucked
There was a moment - where I looked at my kid and realized the war that I was about to get engaged in (against tech companies, to protect my kid(s)). It elevated my anxiety to a state of panic. I've always been a proprietary-software-is-bad nut but this is qualitatively different. Children don't stand a chance.
I'm horrified - of seeing the first moment my kid uses software that I did not write myself. I myself struggle against the constant dark UX mouse traps.
I'm going to try to focus on good positive things like wood-working and robotics and not think about it too much. I'm going on a camping trip soon and I think that will help.
This has consumed me and I've been kind of losing my mind. It's actually bad

iOS 26 and macOS 26 use liquid glass mesh so they can make old devices obsolete and laggy, last time they got caught manually degrading performance due to low battery health, so now they're just making the UI heavier so you buy new devices

the reason why i built x-graphs dot com is because i needed an excuse to steal @ludwigABAP's tweet archive so I can build a semantic search engine over his profile to query CS resources

would you like me to develop an extension connected to x-graphs dot com that would show you how many mutual connections you have with a person?
(it would show it on posts too)
