Just Do It Challenge: Revival Edition

So since I might be doing a few unrelated things, for tracking purposes should I just link them all in one post, or in separate posts?


First bit for Just Do It™ Challenge:

A new front panel for the 3D printable STX case. Maybe more later?

Alright, for the Just Do It™ Challenge, I’m gonna hop on the youtube moneyz bandwagon.

Yall are gonna see my ugly mug after nearly 5 years.

That and… you’ll just have to watch to see the projects I’m working on.

I’ll throw two Projects in here.

  1. My current attempt at making an SSH Connection Manager for WIndows:
    Creating a SSH Connection Manager for Windows
    Moving target and might change from UWP to TUI, but no matter what, i’ll have an executable that’ll let me Select SSH Sessions at the end.

  2. Since it already has a given deadline: I need to create a piece of music for a good friends twitch stream. It’ll be the first orchestral piece i’ve ever written and it’s freakin’ complicated. Deadline is the 18th of August, so two weeks. Not sure what comes out of this, but i commited to it. Thread will go up later.

I retract this. Too many issues lining up, too many spanners and curve balls.

I submit this (kinda retroactively):

I’m in. Got a big launch at work, but that means that the pressure is about to be off in a big way.

I’ve got… two things, actually, that would fit the bill.

I’ll do the fan fiction: Wendell, Ryan, and Kreestuh’s journey to hostile northern territory (Canada) and meet with an ancient mage and his council (Linus Sebastian and LTX). The ancient mage is stuck in his ways, refusing to bend to the new era of magick (GNU/Qt/systemd/Linux). But the Winds of Fortune are changing, and the Overlord Romulus Gates and his Lord Marshall Drunks Ballmer are shifting in order to capitalize on the changing of the seasons.

Can the L1T crew convince the ancient mage and his ilk to rally against the Overlord and his army? Or will a new Dark Age over take them, one with proprietary FOSS that is Free as in TOTALITARIANISM?

I prefer the ending where everyone stops acting like a fucking wad and just uses their computer happily ever after.

I would love to join in, but RL is pushing me hard lately so I won’t have the free time for that.
Can offer a prise though…

I, uh, might have gotten a little out of control with the story.

Started a mini-series on making a Linux workstation. The series will be done by the deadline.

Not sure if this can count, but I’ll submit this for feedback and stay on the story for the contest.

My participation to Just do it comp is:
I’ll play classic world of warcraft this month on linux machine and probably ruin my life by doing so.
Sounds like good times, right?

Just got info that i didn’t get in a tech school… But i have other fishes in the bond to catch. Never have all eggs in one basket.

Perhaps i will read another 2 tech book this month, or one really really well.

Day job and kids has me swamped but I would be interested in putting together a small report on what I do for a day job if anyone is interested.

My work is a little out of the ordinary and I also just sealed the deal to do some Precision AG work that some on here would find interesting.

If anyone would like to see that let me know. If not, I’ll leave well enough alone and try to get in on this next time.

Not to troll or anything, but I have created a present in the wash room. Must be a foot long and a half something.

I should make the monospace generator cli friendly and distribute it as someone mentioned in the programming post… but there are so many sh#t for me to do, including college and work

Hmmmm…

I’ve been meaning to do some performance analysis on using iSCSI vs NFS on Proxmox for quite sometime. So consider me in! (Giving one’s self a deadline maybe the nudge required to actually do this)

Are there any performance metrics people would like to see?

Count me in.
I need to finish my Rpi radio I posted a while back: RPI RADIO

As it stands now I need:

  • to print some stuff out
  • make a very flat usb cable probably solder directly to the pins (preferebly on both sides)
  • buy good speakers
  • get a good 24V power supply
  • document and upload everything so anybody can replicate or improve.
