OptionHouse is an AddOn to manage AddOns. It’s a pretty simple concept.
Works, but no longer shows what addons are loaded
It’s called OptionHouse on curse, and the escape menu shows “Option House” (with a space)
As I mentioned in my Rotating immersion post, I’ve been rotating through various interests. The present one has been World of Warcraft. While probably not the best thing to be wasting my time on, considering the other stuff I had been working on and what I’m capable of, it’s important to me to be able to do this so that the next time I swing back to something “useful” I will be completely refreshed.
The basic idea is to have some “downtime which isn’t downtime”. I can either work hard on awesome stuff and then keep working out until I’m a burned out shell, or I can work hard on awesome stuff, then switch to working hard on less awesome stuff and ping-pong back and forth. My overall effectiveness is higher, plus it’s more fun for me.

It’s my nature to gain and lose interest in things, like the tides coming and going. I’ve tried all sorts of tricks to schedule and change focus, but they just don’t work for me. So I’m going to declare a new way of doing things. A way which works to my advantage. I’ll call it “rotating immersion“.
The downside of rss2email is that many ISPs have a limit to the number of emails you can send. Lavabit.com has a flat 256 email limit per day.
GMail seems to be a little more lenient. While it too is restricted, it seems that I could indeed send unlimited emails to myself.

Followup YouTube+RSS-related stuff is in Atheist YouTube channels, now gone
I was intending to do a decent post every day, but I got really burned out. Why? I’ve been struggling with several different programs over the last couple of weeks. I’ve been sick and tired of the clumsiness that my apathy has allowed.
I think everyone has a sort of apathy towards usability issues. We take them as excusable or as some sort of status quo “that’s just the way it is”. I’m sick and fucking tired of that. Seriously.
wmctrl + Documentation >
A man page is not documentation!
Since wmctrl didn’t have quality documentation, I made it myself.

“I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass… and I’m all out of bubblegum.” — They Live – (1988 movie)
There is a concept which I’ve been introduced to thanks to playing online games (corpse-running after a wipe). I don’t know where it came from, and I’m sure there are parallel phrases which convey the same meaning, but this phrase speaks to me..
 OCZ Agility SSD

An SSD is a spectacular speed improvement.
2015-10 – I didn’t mention this, but I believe the problem was due to a half-inserted power cable. The hard drive was sortof dangling around, stuffed into a corner of my case because I was too cheap to buy a bracket for it. My bad. =( Also, it appears that Toshiba has bought OCZ.
