openbsd is such a satisfying operating system. i installed it on an old underpowered x86 desktop and have been using it to help avoid distractions, and just... looking at the operating system logs is almost soothing. not much is happening, you just see the essential services that you immediately know, as it tells you exactly what stage it's in. the login page is blissfully simple. i did install xfce, but i definitely don't regret that. it helped me.it just helps so much to cut away the noise sometimes

@wizard yea i am honestly not even dreaming of replacing my normal desktop with bsd, the restrictions are what make it appealing to me so as to limit myself and make computing simpler specifically in my bedroom so as to slow myself down like hyperthreading disabled dual core is a GREAT deterrent to not open discord in the browser lol

It is genuinely impressive how github is now one of the slowest sites I visit on a regular basis. Even just the wikis. Wtf.

Having to wait 5 real seconds while the most recent commit even loads on the repository's main page is so disconcerting

do you ever have those projects where it's supposed to be a literally 5 minute job but the most vital part of the operation turns out to be broken and now everything is complicated and will take at least an hour and much more brainpower than you had allocated for the project before you started
