Lately, it's been the man pages for bash. Linux is a rabbit hole all on its own. The man pages lead you from one hole to another and each has its own usefulness. Who would have thought that reading the manual could actually be useful?

Rain World Modding

I already know C# so I thought it wouldn't be that difficult, but I was very wrong. Rain World is a game made with Unity, but the only part they use Unity for is rendering. And the game also doesn't ship with debug symbols. Doesn't help that the modding wiki is outdated at places and incomplete. Took a lot of guess work and looking at other mods to figure out what to do, but I got there at the end and learned a lot.

International Humanitarian Law which defines war crimes and such.

As it turns out most people who cry about war crimes on the internet don’t know the first thing about them.

Toying with the idea of running my own email server. Lots of people say this is a bad idea.

Been doing lots of research. I have a VPS for it already and want to set it up with postfix, dovecot, roundcube, and mariadb.

I don't want to host locally because I don't want it to depend on my internet connection and because my ip address will likely change at some point and most residential IPs are blacklisted.

But also don't want to host it on someone else's machine unless I can totally encrypt the drive. I have been looking at how to do full drive encryption on a vps hard drive by adding dropbear ssh to the initsys so I can ssh in and enter the decryption password when rebooting.

This also doesn't seem ideal, because it would require me to be available to do this for every reboot.

So still researching to see what other options there are.

Been rebinging Warehouse 13 (dumb but I love it). It stayed as an attempt to trick myself into doing some long overdue paperwork - even doing it slowly while half watching show is better than continuing to avoid it completely. That worked for a day or so, but now I've descended to just cycling through savoury and sweet snacks and watching a season a day...
