Notes and thoughts not worthy of a blog post:
2/5/2020 - I use unclutter to hide my mouse when it isn't in use, however when hidden onhover actions still occur, to prevent this I made the cursor warp to the top left by putting `XWarpPointer(display, None, None, 0,0,0,0, -1920, -1080);` in cursor_hide() in cursor.c
25/4/2020 - I've now got ~50 images of cute "girls" rotating every 3 minutes in the corner of my website, you can find them all here.
5/2/2020 - The bluetooth LED on my x200 would not turn off no matter how I disabled bluetooth (even in the libreboot image). It seems it can be turned off manually by flipping the 4th bit at 0x3A in EC memory.
29/1/2020 - Charging thresholds on my x200 wasn't working after librebooting using ectools. It seems i needed to change another bit in EC memory to enable charge thresholds (see this ticket), at least it works (for now)
28/1/2020 - I wanted a way to view two camera streams side by side, I didn't want the overhead of a browser. After some searching I found mpv can do it: "mpv --external-file= --lavfi-complex='[vid1] [vid2] hstack [vo]' --no-cache-pause". However this used too much CPU, so I use a browser anyway.
27/1/2020 - fn-ctrl swap in coreboot for the x200 does not work. This feature was never in the EC (embedded controller) and coreboot does not replace that firmware. Very unfortunate, there exists replacement firmware, but I am not willing to go that far for it yet.
