Having been playing with LineageOS on my Motorola One Action, it has taken me some trial-and-error to get this phone working the way I would like. This post serves as a record to myself of the process I have tried thusfar which has (probably) worked.

I own (or did, at the time of this article) a OnePlus Nord N200. Overall, it is a sufficient phone for my needs. There are a few things I’ve done to improve the user experience, but which require somewhat specific knowledge to implement. I will be using this article as an ongoing log of hacks that I have found, and how I did them, so that I can repeat them in the future. Continue reading
I have seen this phrase come up lately, and decided that it is a belief that is common enough to be relevant to a number of people, simple enough to debunk without getting into too long of an essay about it, and the consequences dire enough that it warrants attention.
In short, theft is defined by how something is acquired from you, not by what the other person does with it.
Simple oatmeal chip cookie recipe. Mostly the same as the recipe in the link at the bottom of the page, but with more straightforward instructions for use on my kitchen tablet.

Broth for noodle soups. Modified from the Pho broth video below, to suit my use of ingredients. No ingredient quantities are listed, because it doesn’t matter that much – you’ll just create differently-balanced broths. Add what feels right. Parentheses indicate optional ingredients.

Simple and quick pasta dish. This makes one serving. Multiply linearly.
I created these ammo box templates in order to be able to store ammunition in ammo cans efficiently. I determined the sizes according to the capacity of common standard magazines. Clipping them out involves a minimal amount of lines that can be done with a straightedge and a hobby knife, though scissors can be used.
Simple home kimchi-like recipe. Great as a side or ingredient for any Asian-inspired dish that could use a little kick. Not authentic, but it can be done with the ingredients I normally keep in stock. 2lbs of cabbage, after this recipe, will fill a 1/2 gallon mason jar. Continue reading

This is a collection of air fryer times as a quick-reference sheet for myself, so that I don’t have to go searching Google every time I forget one. Continue reading
An easy but tasty burger bun recipe adapted (mostly) from kingarthurbaking.com. This will make 8 buns, approximately 10cm in diameter.
Fizzy drink for quenching thirst. This is a relatively plain kombucha recipe; hibiscus adds a little flavor, but not much. This will make 2 quarts, or enough to make in a 2.5qt pickle jar. This is my own kitchen recipe, derived from adjusting other recipes to my tastes.

Delicious noodle dish for two, adapted for the ingredients I normally stock. This recipe uses storebought sauce – it is expensive online, so I recommend checking your local Asian foods market for the best price. Bean sprouts are also pricy and sometimes hard to find with any quality, so it might be worthwhile to learn to sprout your own from mung beans. The rice noodles can be substituted out for just about any kind of noodle if need be. Continue reading

Recently, I bought a secondhand set of Sennheiser HD1 headphones (a slightly updated version of the Momentum 2.0). While in great condition from the seller, and beautiful in design, it did have a few issues I had to address in order to be able to be satisfied with them. Here, I am going to detail what those issues were and how I fixed them (or didn’t). Continue reading
I recently acquired a new (actually secondhand, but new to me) set of Bluetooth headphones (Sennheiser HD1 Wireless), and decided that I wanted to get them working properly in Linux.
The the location of the wobble.
I acquired my Philips Fidelio X2HR headphones about two years ago and fell in love with the sound. They have not been entirely without problems, however. One of those problems is that the connection between the metal headband struts and the metal ring which supports the earcup became slightly wobbly over time. After living with it for awhile, I decided to just get down to it and fix it. After-the-fact, while trying out some Brainwavs earpads, I decided it might be a good idea to share the knowledge.
