Linux

I have probably installed Arch Linux ten times in as many years. I see other distros every once in a while that I want to try out but I always end up back with Arch. There’s something very satisfying in knowing exactly what is running on your system down to the process. Having everything hand picked to be exactly what you want just makes it feel like home. My main computer for a long time was a 2014 13-inch Macbook Pro....

NetworkManager unfortunately doesn’t have a kill switch in case your VPN connection drops but you can achieve the same effect through firewall rules. I’m using ufw here but you can achieve the same using iptables or firewall-cmd. I haven’t looked into automating this when VPN connects yet but opening Gufw and switching the profile hasn’t become annoying yet either. If I ever get around to that I’ll post an update....
