That’s adorable until you own a phone, a laptop, a tablet, a TV, a smart speaker, and even a couple of smart plugs. My solution: put all the IoT stuff behind a Raspberry Pi that shows up as one device to the building’s network, but acts like a full-blown Wi-Fi for everything else I own.

I was actually doing really good the first three weeks, or at least I think so. Actually, looking back at it, I maybe wasn’t. Well I had to take like two exams and studied for them, but that was also not good enough. I have not really been able to focus on my work and studies lately. I’ve been feeling more down, sad, exhausted. I’ve been wanting to stay alone at home. To rest. And then I get stressed and sad because I’m not doing anything. I get the feeling of worthlessness a lot lately. It’s exhausting.

Longer story: I spent 30 minutes poking around, and now you don’t have to. Here’s exactly what I did.
|
||
I’ve been wanting to add comment section to my blog for a while. There are a few problems.
|
||
I don’t want to get attacked by bots or random people for no reason. I don’t want to allow weird things to happen. I don’t want to have a database for it. So… I decided to take a path which is not necesserially the best. It requires a third party to act on your behalf, but it is not as scary as it sounds. According to Github:

I’ve never been a pro chess player, but I do follow some of the fun ones, and occasionally Magnus. I like Fabi a lot, but my all-time favorite is Hikaru. Danya was my favorite commentator. Someone who was so fun to watch explaining complex positions. I think he was indeed, if not the best, one of the best at it.

The occasion is grim. However, let’s remember the immense pressure he was under. Let’s remember how he was accused of cheating by Kramnik many, many times. By a former world champion. Someone who has accused many and has ruined their lives for no reason. The likes of Hikaru!

Last year, after I came to Germany, I asked a female friend about how to do skin care. She touched my face and said, “Knock on wood, you have good skin!”. So… idk why I decided to take extra care of my skin, but I did!
|

Generally speaking, things like this make me feel good about myself. Like I’m doing something positive while not being tortured! It’s always fun to rub cream on your face or gently massage it. Even cleaning the face skin feels refreshing. Everything also smells nice!
