andoff[1] works well. I use it to lock down DNS settings to nextdns to block all the sites I want. Then I use lockmeout[2] to lock opening andoff to change the settings.

Also there is limitphone[3], but it has less settings and is easier to uninstall than andoff, but works via the same mechanism.

If you are already building a proxy network to handle this can you please implement redirects? I would love to redirect x.com to xcancel.com by just setting my DNS. I would pay more for this feature.

It's interesting that someone like a boss would be further away from you and not a friend, how would you talk to your boss that is also your friend?

Heroku has been down for hours now for me, and still no mention even on their status page.

To do things like turn off and on airplane mode when certain conditions are met with automate https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.llamalab.a... for example. There are work arounds but having a rooted phone is the easiest.

New comment by blissofbeing in "Rust doesn't solve the CrowdStrike outage"

So the argument is that yes Rust would have helped mitigate this specific bug, but bugs exist in all languages so therefore it doesn't matter the language.

I see the logic, but I don't think anyone is saying using Rust would make it bug free, people are just correctly pointing out Rust would have helped this bug, or in other words there is the potential for less bugs with Rust.

So yes, and.

Is there any chance you'll be adding support for moving the sidebar to the right? This is the one stopping me from moving back to sublime.

You then might enjoy mimestream[1], I think of it as a native mac gmail client, no wrapper around gmail.com just using gmail APIs.

For me the biggest quality of life improvement has been moving to a less populated area with clean air, clean water and access to good organic food, forget what country that is in, that only matters in which the local government either degrades or improves upon those basic things.

This is why I probably won't move to Asia, it's just too polluted. Or why I won't move back to a big city.
