When I can’t sleep, I turn around and sleep “upside down” - moving my pillows to where my feet were beforehand, and my feet to where my head was beforehand - and I stick with that for a week or so. It gives me a week or so without insomnia and then wears off, so I have to turn myself back around for the next 7-12 day period.

Admittedly this could just be a me thing, but let’s put our faith in this method and let the power of placebo effect take hold. Boom, minor bouts of sleeplessness are cured.

What are your own examples of this?

    One weird trick! Terminal still scares me as well as installing from GitHub, but I have win11 required at work and mint at home and the speed and ease of use are like night and day

        Switched to codeberg as well

        I’m using gitlab-on-prem for now, until their slow code decay and creeping featurism destroys it completely. It’s only barely usable now because of the really dumb CI/runner changes, for example, but forgejo uses a yaml CI setup so that’s never happening.

            Its build/install fails best practice and ISO in so many places that I simply cannot.

            But thank you for sending that over. I’ve never heard of that app, and I’m grateful for the consideration.

          Not a Yaml fan?

          I don’t hate Yaml. I’ll admit, I also don’t use it for much. Yaml’s job in my CICD is to tell me where I left the bash scripts for each step.

            Heck no. I get paid to do a ansible in the daytime, and yaml and ansible are proof of society’s collapse; not just because they’re both so terrible, but because they are ever chosen despite the existence of so many alternatives.
