I’ve realized that I’m one of those people who always demands too much of themselves. I’m constantly thinking that I’m not doing enough and that I need to be doing more.

Recently, all this exhaustion finally caught up with me, and I got sick. I thought it was a perfect excuse to finally relax: just play video games, do nothing, and actually enjoy myself.

So, I started playing games and tried to stop guilt-tripping myself for being "unproductive." Around the same time, my brother told me that this "cult of productivity" mostly serves capitalists — they want you to keep improving so they can get more out of you for the same pay. They want you to spend your energy becoming "better" instead of actually resting.

I thought that after a week of being sick, I’d be ready to jump back into my usual hobbies. But I wasn't. Now, I don't even know if I actually like programming or self-hosting anymore. Did I ever really enjoy it, or did I just convince myself I did?

It’s been two or three weeks now, and I’m still doing almost nothing. I’m starting to doubt everything I was interested in. I just wanted to share these feelings and ask: has anyone else been in a situation like this? Where you just don’t know what you’re doing it for anymore?

Thanks for listening.

 

Hello, everyone, recently I set up AmneziaWG on my router(Cudy WR3000 running openwrt) using this shell script. It works great, but currently it routes all traffic from my LAN through the VPN interface(awg1). But I want to somehow to achieve a split setup. I want first Wi-Fi, that routes everything AmneziaVPN and a second, that doesn't. But I want to use my computer without VPN too, through cable. My question is: how can I do it? I would appreciate a step-by-step hint or a link to a guide. Thanks!

Hello! I have a /home partition that is almost full, and there is another partition nearby with a lot of free space. I would like to reduce the size of this neighboring partition and add the freed space to /home. I would like to do this safely, without using a Live USB or bootable flash drive. Is this possible?

upd: gparted just worked(through a live usb stick)! Sometimes I try to use symlinks, but not this time :) Thanks everyone!

Actually, I don't really know differences between. Just all guides use cfdisk and I forgot about mbr and gpt. But I changed mbr to gpt using gdisk(after start he say, that I have mbr and gpt and which I want to use. I chose "create blank gpt" and now I can use gdisk to partition disk. And after gdisk lsblk show right information! Thats it

    Now I can watch some films with subtitles, read texts(I think my level is about A2 - B1) and understand the main point, but I feel like I need somehow to expand my vocabulary. I tried to learn new words using flash cards and it's seems effectively. But too boring for me and I just can't do it. So, maybe you can give a couple recommendations?
