Same here. I use screen mostly because it's generally available, whereas tmux usually has to be installed.


Blocking at the firewall works best for me. If any OS X users want to know how, I've covered it here: https://www.perpetual-beta.org/weblog/blocking-facebook-on-o...

Splash screen? So '80s.

Looks pretty, but I gave up after one screen change due to the horrible navigation control.

I can only ask... why?


Here, here!!


Great idea.


It's great that you managed to get cron working the way you wanted. However, I'm curious, why not just put your Vim settings on Dropbox or something like BitTorrentSync - then alias your local settings/configs on each machine to the corresponding file/folder in your Dropbox?

I use this method for all settings and configs that I wish to share across multiple machines. Personally I find it more manageable than any other solution, and certainly less convoluted than "multiple rounds of ssh duncan@some-server... git pull origin master".


I started in 1981 - damn, that makes me feel old.
