On first glace I thought I'd be looking at the UI of a streaming service. This is so awful

That a very weird font. I first read boycouing.

I can totally understand that. In case you still want to give it a chance, I can highly recommend EndeavorOS. It's basically pre-styled, pure Arch. But it has a welcome dialog, where you have a warning banner at the top if you need to be careful regarding an update. This directly links you to their Gitlab and forum with the steps you'd need to take to not break anything. This saved me multiple times already and I never broke my system, despite not even reading the Arch RSS feed or changelogs.

Besides the EndeavorOS forum is waaaay friendlier compared to the Arch one.

You probably won't gain much right now, but as the development on Organic Maps has stalled, you might encounter bugs not being fixed, no new features etc. If it stays like that, you'd probably want to switch at some point.

First there is a fork of Organic Maps, which is called CoMaps. If I understood it correctly, the development on Organic Maps nearly halted for some reason regarding the company that owns it. CoMaps now wants to pick it up again.

Also for navigation I use Magic Earth. It uses OSM data but is not FOSS itself, which is unfortunate. But it offers traffic data which is crucial for good arrival time estimation or avoiding traffic jams.

I need to look it up again, but I read about a study that showed that the results improve if you tell the AI that your job depends on it or similar drastic things. It's kinda weird.

Does anyone have resources for ADHD friendly clean-up techniques? And I don't mean cleaning-up like in "removing dirt" but how to sort your stuff? My main chaos exists because I don't know where to put everything.

I seriously thought about getting a waterproof notepad for that reason

That resonates so well with me. Attending all the meetings, discussing feature requests and evaluating their feasibility is so exhausting. But working overtime for a few days to find and fix the bug that completly halted production? No problem!

It is actually a passive detection based of the timing of the chunk requests. Because curl by default will only request new chunks when the buffer is freed by the shell executing the given commands. This then can be used to detect that someone is not merely downloading but simultaneously executing it. Here's a writeup about it:

You can also find some proof-of-concept implementations online to try it out yourself.

You shouldn't install software from someone you don't trust anyway because even if the installation process is save, the software itself can do whatever it has permission to.

"So if you trust their software, why not their install script?" you might ask. Well, it is detectable on server side, if you download the script or pipe it into a shell. So even if the vendor it trustworthy, there could be a malicious middle man, that gives you the original and harmless script, when you download it, and serves you a malicious one when you pipe it into your shell.

And I think this is not obvious and very scary.
