Run git rm --cached path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
Commit and delete the now untracked submodule files.

Steps to install a Comodo PositiveSSL certificate with Nginx.

Setting up a SSL Cert from Comodo

I use Namecheap.com as a registrar, and they resale SSL Certs from a number of other companies, including Comodo.

These are the steps I went through to set up an SSL cert.

Purchase the cert

Minimal instructions for installing arch linux on an UEFI system with full system encryption using dm-crypt and luks
# Install ARCH Linux with encrypted file-system and UEFI
# The official installation guide (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installation_Guide) contains a more verbose description.
# Download the archiso image from https://www.archlinux.org/
# Copy to a usb-drive
dd if=archlinux.img of=/dev/sdX bs=16M && sync # on linux
# Boot from the usb. If the usb fails to boot, make sure that secure boot is disabled in the BIOS configuration.
# Set swedish keymap

A small script for controlling mpv via the JSON IPC. Intended to resemble playerctl.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# This script requires:
# - that the directory $HOME/.mpv exist
# - that the program socat be installed
# - that you start mpv with the unix socket feature pointing at that directory
# I recommend an alias in your .bashrc or equivalent file:
# alias mpv="mpv --input-unix-socket=$HOME/.mpv/socket"
socket="$HOME/.mpv/socket"
