  • I don’t for quite a while anymore, but I did longer than most others. I had to stop because people were laughing at me at that point as I was basically the only one.

    I simply felt more comfortable with it. It felt good to have a large portion of my face covered, people not seeing all of my face, most of my face expression. I didn’t have to worry if I got too carried away with my thoughts and imaginary conversations while walking in public so much that I started quietly whispering to myself, and of course moving my lips. Or doing something else weird like licking or biting my lips. Or inappropriately smiling against my will.

    When I stopped wearing it, it basically felt like being naked in public. An awful feeling so bad I wished for another wave of the pandemic only so that masks would seem acceptable again.

    Maybe I wasn’t the only one. Perhaps it’s such psychological thing for someone else.




  • Good idea.

    You can still get the newest DD-WRT builds even on the WRT54G.
    That is a Wi-Fi router from 2002.

    Of course, the features are sort of limited. I tried the VPN build (on WRT54GL), but I couldn’t get the OpenVPN client to connect. I found some thread mentioning it may be missing something, but I don’t know if that’s the issue.

    Anyway, without overclocking I’d expect like 2Mbps. I mean, it barely handles HTTPS. Just trying to load the WebUI maxes out the CPU for several seconds if trying to use HTTPS.
    Perhaps it’s not missing anything software-wise, but it’s just so slow it times out during handshake.
    So I just put the std build on it in case it will be useful at some point.


  • My lazy way is NGINX with autoindex.

    If it’s to go over untrusted network (e.g.: internet, school network) I use SSH for port forwarding. Lazy encryption.

    Something like this works just fine:

    worker_processes 1;
    daemon off;
    events {
    }
    http {
            default_type application/octet-stream;
            server {
                    root /storage/emulated/0/sharedfile;
                    listen 127.0.0.1:30000;
                    location / {
                          autoindex on;
                    }
            }
    
    }
    

    sharedfile is a directory with the files.
    On remote machine if I am not mistaken

    ssh -L 127.0.0.1:8080:127.0.0.1:30000 username@host
    

    Then just access it in web browser on 127.0.0.1:8080 or whatever port you chose.
    In PuTTY you can find this under “Tunnels”.

    Of course, you need to have SSH server set up as well.
