It could be a hallucination or it could not, check your monoxide detector, double check you aren't schitzo/predisposed to more serious forms of hallucinations and setup a webcam pointed at the door + the painters tape like someone else suggested.
Maybe it was a one off groggy sleep hallucination, maybe your being poisioned by gas, maybe your ass is haunted or someone crept into your home.
I've only ever used one towel for drying and 2-3 washcloths in the shower. If you do your shower right you will come out clean enough. If any body area still stinks up the towel even slightly you havent done a good enough job.
Here's my wash routine, its simple and effective. Warning it may be a little moein detail than you want to read about.
When washing I soap up the first cloth ad startwith the face then armpits, then crotch, then taint, finally ass crack. Get in there and be thorough, use a lot of soap. I use Dr.bronners 18 in 1 hemp tea tree liquid soap with water in a spray bottle.
Rinse soap, then use sterilizer on your pits and if you are brave enough the tiniest bit on crotch. alcohol is more powerful but quickly dries the skin so its a quick spritz and rinse. vinegar is more gentle for people with sensitive skin.
Retire first wash cloth, get second one soap it up and do a general scrub down of the body. Torso, shoulders, arms, legs, hands and feet,scrub nails. Then do part 1 again (minus the sterilizer)
If you do this properly you will come out so clean one towel is enough. I still start with the face and work my way down to crotch when drying anyways lol. Doing a final sniff test with the towel afterward is the best way to know if you did really well.
Wire stripping and crimping. Especially if you plan to do offgriding homesteading with solar but occasionally comes up in home applications when you want to revive a mangled extension cord or install a fixture. Specialized cables start to add up very quickly its much more cost effective to buy a big bag of connectors, a big roll of decent gauge wire, dig out an old set of wire cutters+needlenose and fire up a 2 minute instructions yt video. Like all other skills it takes time and error to get good at it but its not too terribly difficult as wel as very cool to essentially build your own electrical grid from the ground up with wires and connectors you made yourself..
I'm thankful for the shelter, heat, and electrical power I worked hard to have this year, that I am debt free and have enough in the bank to make it at least to spring without working if I wanted to. I'm thankful that my family members are still all alive and that the future still has hope.
I think paying attention to your experience in the moment is a kind of superpower. So many people are wound up in their own minds constantly focused on their life dramas and current problems and what they are anxious about and all that. Learning to get out of your own head, stop the never ending flow of thoughts and impulses, and appreciate the beauty right in front of you. Not zoning out, learning to silence your mind while paying attention to the world through your senses.
Most days if weather permits around the last hour or two before sundown I will swing in my hammock, smoke some pot, and bask in the sunlight. During that time I feel a real medatative sense of peace. It does wonders for my mental health.
About number 2, invidious got a letter sent to them by youtubes legal goblins a few months ago trying to make the argument that downloading vids is violating their TOS. The thing is, invidious doesnt use YouTube's APIs and instead uses the regular way browsers stream content to do its thing. Nothing ever came of this and invidious is still going strong, so while YouTube/google would really really like 2. To be true in order to murk the 3rd party scrapers, as it currently stands it as long as they aren't using YouTube's APIs they aren't breaking TOS (that they never agreed to)
I'm not a lawyer though and could be wrong, this is just my current uneducated understanding of that situation. Just my 2c
Your web browser or app downloads videos whenever you stream them, nothing illegal about it. Only difference when you use yt-dl is that the video gets saved on your device storage instead of being cached temporarily.
Dwarf fortress
I was always into it conceptually and think that all the under the hood simulation stuff is rad as hell and its fascinating how emergent narrative arises from such complexity.
Also love kruggsmash's videos, the bastards a legend. He's what got me into it.
But pre steam release I just could not get into actually playing it. Even with tile sets and such. I tried, I really did. But the horrid UI and high amounts of game ending bugs were just too much.
The steam release was the only game I've truly been hyped for in my adult life. I was giddy like a kid and got it the SECOND it released, and finally fell in love with PLAYING the game and not just hearing about it. Its so fun building up a fortress and getting invested in your little dwarves well being, hidden surprises they put in to spice things up. Every month there's an update, even if is just a small peacemeal to let us know things are happening and adventure mode is coming along.
After playing for a while and learning enough to know how much you dont know, you can feel the limitless passion and raw intelligence that is the foundation for the insanely rich systems you work with. It feels like a living world in your computer. The closet thing to true technological magic I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with.
Some instances will query certain engines that others won't. If you want google based results you probably don't want an instance that doesn't query google.
Geographical location of the server can determine your connection speed, the closer a searxng instance Is to you physically like in your home country the faster it will connect.
Some searxng instances are more popular than others, and the more popular an instance the more likely it will occasionally be rate limited. Choosing an instance that isn't too popular helps even the load.
