Manjaro solution
Manjaro calls @includedir /etc/sudoers.d at the end of /etc/sudoers

  • echo -e "$USER ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL\nDefaults:$USER verifypw=any\n" | sudo tee "/etc/sudoers.d/dont-prompt-$USER-for-sudo-password"

Increase sshd connection speed

  • uncomment “UseDNS no” in sshd_config
  • add “GSSAPIAuthentication no” to $HOME/.ssh/config

termux sshd
For frequented networks can set GrapheneOS wifi privacy to “use device MAC” to avoid IP address changing all the time. \

  • sshd

  2. Right click on an empty part of the page and select “View Page Source” in the context menu, which will then open the page source in a new tab.
  3. Hit CTRL+F to pull up a search and type “channel_id=”. This URL is the RSS feed for the YouTube channel (in this case, the RSS feed URL is https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCHkYOD-3fZbuGhwsADBd9ZQ).
  4. Copy+Paste this link into your preferred RSS reader and rejoice.
