BlueSlide | 8 years ago | on: Block submission whose link requires payment to read content

Install adblock. Right click on overlay > adblock > block this ad until it goes away. (you'll notice the scrollbar has disappeared (B). Run this in inspect scripts - element.style {overflow: scroll;height: 100%;}. Alternatively: buy all the subscriptions

BlueSlide | 8 years ago | on: Termux: terminal emulator and Debian-style userland as an Android app

Been using this app for SSH and it's been amazing. Side note (not the most optimized way), but want to run something in the background? $tmux $[run command] $shift (volume down) + B, then d (detach virtual term) command is running in tmux in background $tmux attach (to get back into the virtual term) See their docs obviously.. but using a mobile terminal I've been using this primarily for my tasks

BlueSlide | 8 years ago | on: Ask HN: With 2 years and no obligations, what would you build?

For possible financial gain: Web applications. Lots of them, most will fail as with mobile apps, but say I could do one every month or two, that's 12-24x the amount of chance of success than building one substantial well thought through, maybe unsellable thing.

None financial: I'd like to build robot or a virtual personal assistant (see film 'Her')

BlueSlide | 8 years ago | on: Ask HN: I've lost the ability to concentrate. How can I fix this?

From what you've described, I'm going through the same thing and I understand it's completely down to my lifestyle choice and work. I'll be trying lots of these comments (thanks everyone) to see if I can improve / lift my brain fog. I can say sleeping around 10 after half an hour of no technology is bliss, have a shower, prepare your clothes for the next day so you have nothing but me time in the morning. It feels good to wake up, grab a coffee and read a book.
