Umm ya. Why are you here? I dunno. unless you’re me. I’m here cuz i want to keep track of things and so anyone else can see what in the world i’m doing. not like they care. meh, i shall say it again,… meh.
Anyways, my ideas that i’ve been brewing for a while that i’ve always needed to blog about:
- Mod audio players to look more like amarok and less like itunes; candidates: foobar2000, quarkplayer, musikcube2
- likelyhood of doing it: slim, bit more than slim with foobar since i’d just need to make a component
- CD ripping support for amarok: i submitted this to Gsoc in ‘08. No bites. oh well
- just a CD ripper: queues as the main interface element, to rip as much as possible at the same time.
- why? current interfaces suck
- possible, but unlikely atm
- mduel remake
- my cousin’s doing this, he’s started in python, restarted in c and is now restarting again
- i tried this a couple years ago in java, restarted once, would restart again
- would wait to see if joel comes thru, steal his code and port it to java and/or Qt, otherwise, still possible
- powerpoint replacement, named “Projection”
- when i get free time, i’ll do it. depends on my war3 cravings. Qt4 ftw!
- powerpoint sucks, opensong = meh, oo.o impress = good but not optimal esp. for songs, mediashout looks good, but $$$$$, proprietary.
- i already have a qt app that has a button that makes it go fullscreen. Yay! pretty good for first time using qt and c++.
- replacement for campwise. That bloated stupid microsoft-whaddya-call-it-only lets you use ie…
- maybe in a couple years… I’ll have to learn how to use/code the AMP in LAMP/WAMP. And of course, LOTS of free time.
- minimalistic linux setup to be low on power, cli interface, just playes music. And of course an amarok-like interface.
- Lots of hacks on dwm
- vista theme that looks like oxygen
- passing windows’ desktop right click menu/shell extensions to be accessible thru plasma/windows.
- just talking about it gives me an idea: just pop it up thru a submenu that just loads windows’ submenu. It’d look hackish but work!
- some way to quickly switch between ndiswrapper and bcm43xx linux wireless drivers thru networkManager… probably unrealistic tho.
- bake the ultimate cookie: cross between double chocolate and cornflake-m&m cookies.
Also, for c++, Eclipse? MSVC? Kdev? I’ll see in a few weeks when i’ll(hopefully) have free time. and lots of it.
Oh yeah, the name of this blog comes from a comment on a blog. so sue me.
