My ISP uses a Carrier-grade NAT for home customers which leaves me with an IP that is shared with many others and thus I can't connect to my network from the outside.

Ssh reverse tunnel can be used to remedy that and restore outside ssh connections to my home comuter.

I like the notion of planning ahead and the general gtd mindset but I very much dislike strict deadlines and due dates as well as concrete schedules that span weeks.

I will attempt to implement a gtd workflow that fits my needs. This document is the architectural blueprint of said workflow. Ofcourse it's based on emacs and org-mode.

Some useful ffmpeg commands.

I got an EdgeRouter to start delving into some more advanced home networking stuff and set up dynamic DNS, VPN et.c without having to keep my desktop constantly running.

Tips to keep a stelar, lean and clean, emacs configuration.

Notes on working with gpg, creating and editing keys, exporting and importing backups et.c.

In this here blog post I describe how I managed to get my agenda view straight out of emacs and into a web page so I can access it from everywhere.

It is hackish and flimsy but it's been working for a few months years now, so here goes nothing.

Here is how I use xlnch to build menus for quick access to everything.

Notes on gpu passthough to a virtual machine using libvirt.

Emacs developers in their infinite wisdom have provided a way to dump the frame data (i.e. what your GUI emacs shows on screen) into a file in either png, pdf, svg or postscript format. This is achieved though the x-export-frames function.

A reference page for building Emacs from the git source.

Emacs can be used to configure your local and remote systems. Using org-mode with babel tangle you can export code snippets as files in a specific path. This path is defined in the #+begin_src line and can be any valid C-x c-f path, which includes /ssh:user@host:/path or /sudo:root@localpc:/path.

With this simple yet powerful feature org mode can be used for basic configuration management out of the box!

This blog is being managed entirely in Emacs. In this post I will explain how it works and try to keep it up to date with any future changes.
