• Russia has started indiscriminately blocking all OpenVPN/WireGuard connections

  Outline (https://getoutline.org) is even easier to deploy than Streisand and uses Shadowsocks. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Set Up a Self Hosted Outline VPN with Amazon LightSail in 5 steps.

  Outline, a free and open-source VPN service developed by Google, is renowned for its user-friendly design. It can be conveniently established on diverse platforms, and this blog will specifically guide you through the process of setting up a self-hosted Outline VPN using Amazon LightSail. - Source: dev.to / 12 months ago

• How can I bypass extreme website restrictions in my university wifi?

  Another good way is to set up your own VPN server on Digitalocean or something. Use a VPN protocol that is good at escaping detection. I recommend Outline VPN (getoutline.org). It's an open-source project that uses the Shadowsocks protocol and aims to provide censorship-free Internet to journalists in certain countries. It's not a VPN service so you need to set it up on your own server. Source: 11 months ago

• Is there any way to circumvent the shitty VPN ban that we have in place other than, well, a VPN ?

  Use a self-hosted Outline on GCP or any other cloud platform, it works really well in my experience for circumventing these blocks. Source: about 1 year ago

• Shadowsocks vs. Astrill?

  Shadowsocks is a protocol. Technically not a VPN, but looks like one. Shadowsocks is a string of code that needs a server. You can get a VPS (aka server for $2/m) and install Shadowsocks. Alternately install outline, it's largely based on Shadowsocks. Works also with the Shadowsocks client, or others, like V2rayNG. Source: about 1 year ago

• Feeling discouraged

  I have tried crash diets in the past and have never felt this good or this energetic. I'm going to keep going like this until I'm at my goal weight. I gained 60 lbs from taking this antipsych med called zyprexa (it's known for extreme weight gain fast but I was like I'd rather be mentally ok than fit and thin right now so I'm basically trying to reverse it. I use loseit.com to track my cals and exercise works... Source: over 1 year ago

• no motivation

  Follow that guide and that timing, and you'll be able to start putting some data around your diet. Start with your regular, normal food. My favorite tool for this is now-better LoseIt! Over MyFitnessPal which has been on the decline for years. Source: over 1 year ago

• [23] I gained about 10 kgs in the past year. starting from zero knowledge on weight loss any advice? pics are from 2021 dec and last week (2023 mar)

  You can use a TDEE calculator to work out approximately how many calories your body is using per day. You need to eat in a deficit of around 15-20% of your TDEE to see decent weight loss. You can use an app like Lose It! To track your food intake and see how many calories you're eating. People are notoriously bad at underestimating the calories that they consume so I really recommend you do some calorie tracking.... Source: over 1 year ago

• Is 1200 calories actually enough?

  At 1200 kCal/day you'll certainly lose weight, but it probably won't be safe... My older-but-similarly-sized spouse gets about 1600 (to lose weight) if she sits on the couch, so being active will certainly bump that up. We use an app called lose it to track both food and exercise and it seems to do a decent enough job for me and her. So your 1200 may be fine if you're a couch potato, but it sounds like you need...

• Progress tracking app?

  I use LoseIt. I've used it since I started on phentermine back in 2007, so it has a lot of historical data for me. It has a good barcode scanner and remembers your most frequently added items so once you put in a meal, you can just click into that section when adding foods and it will have the full list of ingredients from meals there.
