An E-book reader.
Because this is my first e-reader, I can't judge it against it's peers. It works well.
It is spectacular hardware-wise. Its software works, but it is sometimes obviously or even critically lacking. It lacking a file browser and respecting directories is bad enough that I can't really use it for its intended purpose, and almost regret buying it.

I have trust issues with all storage, but flash memory-based storage is particularly unreliable.
TL;DR - Stubby metal drives are a problem.

todo - there are more notes to be added, I've just been busy/lazy.

This is a low-end low-cost laptop. It was on extreme sale, and as it has USB 3.1 it'll do fine.
Very highly recommended: This thing is awesome in every way. Exception: It's childishly-glossy.
Not to be mistaken for Thunderbird.

A simple volume icon for your taskbar's tray.
Works great, no dependencies for me, and does more than what I want.
I got this working, because fbpanel's volume plugin decided to not show up again.

This plugin allows you to add code snippets as an alternative to directly editing a theme's functions.php.
I used to manually edit functions.php for my child theme Parament-spiralofhope.

I use a "death" model to organize my content.
Projects and individual items have a life cycle from birth and life, to death and interment. There is also well-defined horror-fantasy terminology for "undeath".
maybe more will be written, but this seems to be good for now.
