To-do list
I mentioned having a lengthy & growing technical to-do list a while back; for fun when I was consolidating it from various notes & bookmarks into one place, I thought I would just post it here.
I realize a lot of the items on the list are not going to appeal to some people. Trust me, they're not negotiable. One or two things may be quasi-entertainment related, but even then they're equally used for general information consumption. And yes, I know several of these set-up-a-new-machine issues (particularly all the things needed to get the single-core NUC into a workable state) are things I in theory could have done before shipping out to my present location, but trust me, I was super busy before then, too.
On the plus side, I did complete the first of the four major projects for the year yesterday, so now I feel like I have some time back.
the list:
compile panel weather indicator
figure out why wacom tablet is not recognized on NUC
get touchpad to disable when wacom is plugged in, laptop
change lock screen image on NUC
reinstall OS on old laptop
get pharos working on new laptop & old laptop
get bluetooth headset to default to A2DP and disable headphone profile

Configure 3 minidlna instances on NUC

• cmus
• gcalcli / calcurse sync

Holy crap does Pumpa mangle a post whenever you try and edit it.... It's like two planes full of markdown and HTML -br- elements collided at an airshow....
