With the release of the 1.5 series of 42links (first announced here), my own approach at writing a bookmark collector has finally surpassed the functionality of its inspiration Espial: As you can see in the screenshot, deleting multiple links at the same time right from the index page is possible now. 🎉

I have been using 42links myself almost every day and I think I have now found and fixed the most embarrassing shortcomings. I would still very much welcome more users contributing ideas and/or people contributing code. :-)

TL;DR: Wählen lohnt sich nicht.

Kurze Erklärung der kommenden Hochrechnungen.

I kept my promise and wrote something in Lisp.

FWIW: Not counting third-party libraries, READMEs and build-related stuff:

This has a few rough edges yet, for which I’m sorry. I’m proud enough to release it though. Please don’t

Als Ergänzung zu meinem vorherigen Maimai vielleicht noch eine Erklärung dazu, was mich am Parlamentarismus eigentlich stört.

Wo bleibt eigentlich die Revolution?

For a reason not worth mentioning here, I would like to write a somewhat more complex awk script in which I would have to explain in detail what I am doing. (If only so that I'll still know next week.) There doesn't seem to be a way to wrap a list of conditions in GNU awk, right?

This is what I tried:

 shell

    
command-that-prints-a-table | awk '
    NR>1 &&                # Skip line 1
    NF>2 &&                # Skip lines with only one column
    substr($1,1,1) != "("  # Skip lines that start with a "("
    { print $1 }
'

  

Alas, that does not work - awk skips the conditions entirely and only runs print $1. It seems that escaping the newlines does not work either, which makes sense as the end of the lines are comments.

This would work:

 shell

    
command-that-prints-a-table | awk '
# - Skip line 1
# - Skip lines with only one column
# - Skip lines that start with a "("
    NR>1 && NF>2 && substr($1,1,1) != "("  { print $1 }
'

  

But - my original code has a few

SPRICH

TL;DR: I made the switch an hour ago and thought I'd share my motivations and experiences here in case anyone wants to do the same.

A few years ago, when the number of devices in my LAN threatened to get out of hand for reasonable maintainability, I made the switch to network-wide ad blocking. An older Raspberry Pi model connected directly to my router turned out to be a good solution. After checking the available options, I ran AdGuard Home on it for a while, which is (in my opinion) a nicer solution than the top dog Pi-Hole, but essentially does the same thing: every DNS request is forwarded to a customisable DNS server and filtered using equally customisable blocking lists, plus there's a nice web interface.

Third-party DNS servers have some advantages, but they are not protected against censorship (e.g. the attacks by corporations against Quad9) and surveillance. Because what used to be called ‘paranoia’ can now be called healthy caution again, my own DNS server w
