Weeknotes 50

Welcome to weeknotes 50. It's actually weeknotes 52, as I started before the start of last year (fuck new year's resolutions.)

That also means that next week's weeknotes is the first of a new year of weeknotes. I'll carry it on, as I enjoy doing it, and I have small plans for next week...

in the meanwhile, what did I do this week? categorised by "how many people did I do it with":

I've been writing a blog post about hitchhiking

Technically, you can see my current progress as it's all open source. You just have to know where to look. The post should be published soon.

I bought some wall plugs

Now I can attach heavy things to the wall. Shelves are coming.

3 topics skipped here as I deemed them not of note

I bought an interrail pass.

They're 25% off until tomorrow, which is a pretty good discount. Perhaps part of me wishes they never went on sale (like Factorio), then you could never be missing out.

I backed up my Pop OS settings to a GitHub repository

Now I can copy it to new computers easily, and keep my laptop and PC in sync more easily too (I had keybinds that were CTRL+SHIFT+SUPER on my laptop and CTRL+SHIFT+ALT on my PC). It's on https://github.com/alifeee/pop-os-backup.

I made some Xmas gits

shhh

I made some notes

They were:

I watched a talk about breaking DRM in Polish trains

The talk is hosted for free on media.ccc.de: https://media.ccc.de/v/37c3-12142-breaking_drm_in_polish_trains

It's from Chaos Computer Congress last year. I found it very interesting to watch and listen to.

this item copied verbatim from notes

looking at different TLDs (`.co.uk` is weird as I am not a corporation - but maybe the meaning has waned anyway - it's also not very globalist)

I was gifted a DVI-only graphics card

Thanks to the gifter. Now to plug it into a PC and monitor and see if it works!

I watched a film from Hong Kong

It was "All Will Be Well". I enjoyed it.

I helped someone with their printer

Well, really I promised to help them.

I reviewed some code

It was for gspread.

I made a typeface from wood block prints

The texture of the prints made the auto-traced SVGs... very large.

with 2 other people

I had guest Thursday

I played badminton

with 3 other people

I was visited by my landlord

I played gloomhaven

with 4 other people

I had tasty, tasty pancakes

I cracked a Wii and played OpenTTD

with many other people

I had a Christmas meal and helped run a Christmas quiz

the end

the latter half of these weeknotes written quick. You definitely couldn't have noticed. It's now bedtime.

Tune in next week for a 1-year-of-weeknotes spectacular.

Until next week.

Stay 11 degrees C, Cloudy.
