Country living pushes you to be more financially independent, while urban living pushes you to be more dependent on companies, banks, land-owners and creature comforts.

This is an update about the "reprinting classical and medieval works" project, well, really just my issues with the printer and web store "app." I didn't even go into all the Javascript code they want me to copy and paste to make this all work. The actual content of the project, the books, is going great though!

An explanation of what makes Bitcoin unique. A brief introduction to blockchain technology and the core principles like Proof of Work and decentralization. These are not just used by Bitcoin now, but other cryptocurrencies partially modeled off it, which I discuss.

Classic video of me milking random statusbar modules I've written for educational notes about the Linux file system and the command line. I write a very terse module that checks your current cumulative network traffic (upload and download) and determines your download and upload rates per second or any time interval you give it. NO STUPID DEPENDENCIES!
Check out the script below. Tell me what obvious inefficiencies I missed.
You'll learn about RX/TX bytes, how to monitor network status, string operations on the command line, paste, and shell arithmetic. I go over some things quickly because there's a lot to talk about even in this minimalist script, but I might cover some of these topics in videos in the future because they're worth it.

(NOTE: I released this video on my PeerTube instance (https://videos.lukesmith.xyz) a while ago and realized I forgot to upload it to YouTube, so here it is, and still relevant).
After some annoyances, I decided to make my life easier by switching Based.Cooking over to using Hugo, a static site generator written in Go which has tagging abilities and other niceties. Not only has it made the site easier to maintain, but I've added some other perks like a simple Javascript list filter and I've enjoyed Hugo so much I switched by personal website (https://lukesmith.xyz) over to it as well.
If you want to contribute a recipe, or improve a preexisting one, including adding an image, you can do it at the Github repository for the site: https://github.com/lukesmithxyz/based.cooking
