        <h4>Messing around with a bad back in stormy weather</h4>
        <p>
          I made a bad movement in the shower this morning and made my back
          scream again, so no woodworking today. One of the benefits of
          retirement is that I get to choose the days activities.
        </p>
        <p>
          I had installed
          <a href="https://github.com/searxng/searxng">SearxNG</a> previously
          more than two years ago, but as I'm constantly fiddling it wound up in
          the bin.
        </p>
        <p>
          Convalescing in the armchair I saw that my current vps is mostly idle
          running just snac2, my blog, xmpp, gophernicus and other bits, so I
          reinstalled SearxNG.
        </p>
        <p>
          It's fast, responsive, and private. I have it behind an Nginx reverse
          proxy, and only accepting my own IP address for now.
        </p>
        <p>
          Another thing I did was to play around with the
          <a href="https://getfresh.dev/">Fresh editor</a>. Like Micro, it can
          be configured to use prettier, the code formatter. Ok, it's written in
          Rust, but it is a nice editor with a retro computing vibe. It won't
          replace Micro as my daily editor, but if I ever need a TUI IDE it
          could be a good choice.
