Get Out Of Infinality Part 1
This is what I do to my systems to get them up to date with freetype 2.7, which invalidates1) the infinality patches. This assumes you have multilib installed. Remove references to lib32- packages if you don't.
Step 0: Update system and get rid of orphans to make sure things are clean. Make sure you have an alternative wm like windowmaker installed so freetype2 problems aren't deadly.
vis.nu Cleanup
One of the problems with offering services to friends and acquaintences for free is that when they don't use your stuff anymore, they neglect to tell you.
There's about 18 years of disused email accounts, websites, and all sorts of weirdness in the vis.nu servers, and starting today I'm cleaning it all up. I'm trying to make sure that I'm not getting rid of things that people are using, but rather than erring on the side of caution, I'm erring on the side of personal simplicity.
I'll be saving things for a while, but not likely permanently. If I step on something you want, contact me via mail or FB or whatever and I'll send you a copy. If you want it to stay on my servers, we can discuss that.

Mystery PanDigital Digital Picture Frame
Not much to it. Got it at goodwill, found a header on it with serial output at 115200 TTL. I *think* I've found the input, but it hasn't been sensitive to input yet. What it does print out, however, is this:
