This is an unsolved problem.. I can can do things manually but not using an easier “A to B” feature.

Problem: Given a video, note a start and finish point and export that clip.
I’d make a proper HOWTO with screenshots, but this does not work as-expected. I can get it roughly to work, but not smoothly enough for it to justify a proper tutorial.
Recording does not respect A to B.
The batteries on my Zaurus SL-C1000 failed to work, so I did some looking around and found a solution.
My battery could charge and would boot up my device. While it showed as fully charged it would “drain” extremely quickly.
Following these instructions I was able to completely resurrect one battery, but a second one did not work. That second battery had a bit of a bulge, so I’m guessing it went completely bad.

A way for me to understand and name things in this game.
Update: Fuck it, why bother? It’s unreasonable to have a personal journey.. the interface just sucks. There’s no concept of getting back to where one was. I hear waypoints might work, so I’ll give that a shot.. but perhaps in the next galaxy or some such.

Instructions on getting Lubuntu (desktop) working for the CubieTruck.
NOTE – These instructions will wipe your MicroSD card!
I don’t know if this version of Lubuntu, or whatever it turns into when updated, has systemd. I’m going to say no because 14.10 is so damned old.

A video broadcasting service. It’s generally used for live-streaming gameplay.
The concept of twitch or other video streaming services confused me until I thought a bit more. See Why would live streaming be popular?

https://www.swagbucks.com/
An personal information collection website which rewards with a trickle of money.
I found surveys which were broken, offers which were suspect, items which wanted my credit card information or to install random software. Overall, the hype that others give this website makes me think less of humanity.
After this glance, I expect I’ll be getting a lot of junk mail. Sigh.
