I’m off until at least 5 Feb due to a boxers fracture. I’m getting sick of TV and movies. Today I’ll clean my apartment, but even with my busted hand it will only take a couple of hours. I can’t really go anywhere as I need to save as much money as I can to cover for missed time at work.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

  • Solve Rubik’s cubes
  • Work on music production
  • Sleep

Thing I probably should do:

  • Continue to learn Swift
  • Follow makeup tutorials

Lemmy, what would you do?

EDIT: Keep ‘em coming Lemmsters! I LOVE the suggestions, and can’t wait to give some of these a go!

    Nice, all good options!

    For iOS, I’d recommend Flutter, since that’s where the market is going, and they have good quick start guides.

    For Docker, it changed my world. I taught someone in these steps, they used GPT to do each step individually, but were required to learn what each part of the compose file did as they went. They used WSL in Windows, but doing it via CLI is key.

    • Use docker-compose to start an Alpine Linux container and Docker Exec into it
    • Get the id of the container with Docker PS
    • Add an environment variable of THIS set to 1
    • Swap Alpine Linix for Nginx, and open 127.0.0.1:80 on it so you can visit it from local host
    • Mount a folder on the local machine into the container as a volume with an index.html page so Nginx will serve that page

    Getting those basics down one step at a time will make all the rest soooooo much easier.
