  • If you’re curious about the history, public school lunches were federally funded and made free under FDR during WWII to combat malnourishment, especially for high schoolers who were getting drafted after turning 18.

    It was so successful that the US continued the policy even after the war ended, and hence cafeterias became the default since they include a large kitchen that’s capable of producing high quality food at large quantities.

    That is until Reagen, among a crap ton of other things, nuked lots of the socialist policies which included free school lunches.

    Schools continued to produce lunch, but you had to pay.

    40+ years of insane decline later, and public schools are so under funded that they can’t even afford to produce lunch in their cafeterias anymore. American consumerism shoved its way in, so now everything is prepackaged garbage made as cheaply as possible from the same conglomerates that make unhealthy trash that’s often banned by other countries due to health risks.

    The final killing blow was when Michelle Obama failed to tackle this core issue in her student health campaign, and they forced public schools to ban essentially flavor as a concept (anything “high” in salt, spice, oil/fats, calories, etc).

    Everything was switched over to “healthy” options which literally just meant low fat/zero calorie slop or sugar slop.

    If you want a real kicker, the chocolate milk they served at my HS had 28g of sugar per serving lol. But don’t worry because the vending machines now only have baked potato chips and diet soda.

    Charter and private schools aren’t really affected by this since they have alternative funding sources.

    Why am I like this?

    Procrastination

    And how can I make it stop?

    Any well known method that you can probably find on youtube, but the general idea is that you need to overcome the psychological barrier of just starting the task. How you do that is up to you.

    Once you start, then you will naturally continue. And once you get in the habit of not dismissing tasks, then you will find it easier to do them from the beginning.




  • (I don’t need strong censorship resistance; it just has to work in offices and hotel WiFis.

    Wireguard on 443 or OpenVPN + Stunnel on 443

    Wireguard is easier to setup because there’s no OpenVPN app that packages stunnel (afaik), so you have to run 2 apps on your phone to make it work.

    A server like caddy can also accept HTTPS traffic for some regular websites next to the VPN server.

    Wireguard uses UDP, so just run whatever you want on 443 TCP with caddy (unless you want QUIC for some reason?)

    Anything beyond that and you’d be looking at using a proper obfuscation solution like Shadowsocks or obfs4, in which case you should look into Amnezia or Tor bridges.







  • I can’t find it now, but there was some talk about AppArmor being dropped due to its limiations, but I guess that’s no longer the case?

    But yeah the selinux “just relabel all” is an annoying duct tape solution to anyone who has issues. Optimally you should only need to relabel a dir/file once or set the appropriate selinux policy flag if you do run into a problem.

    The user friendly solution is supposed to be the troubleshooter, which actually works pretty well most of the time, but it still requires the user to know how SElinux works to use correctly.
