Title: Theatre Acoustic Panels
Date: 2021-10-21
Category: Creations
Summary: Panels for acoustic treatment in my home theatre.
Short: 3
Acoustic treatment is one of the most overlooked aspects of home audio. There's
no point in spending money on premium speakers if the room they are playing in
has poor acoustics.
The primary purpose of acoustic panels is to reduce the reverberations caused by
sound reflecting off the smooth walls of the theatre. The path of the reflected
sound is a longer distance to your ear compared to the sound coming directly
from the speaker. This causes the reflected sound to be delayed by the time it
reaches your ear. The delayed signal interferes with itself, causing comb
filtering which distorts the signal.
Acoustic panels are placed geometrically where the sound from the speakers would
reflect off the wall to reach the listener's ears. The insulation inside the
panels absorbs energy from the soundwave which reduces its volume and
interference.
![twelve L-shaped corners of the panels stacked together leaning on a table saw in a wood shop]({static}/images/panel/panel1.jpg)
I made six frames in the wood shop of my local makerspace, Protospace. After
cutting the 1x4" pine boards to length, I made a jig so I could quickly join
them together with screws.
![a panel with insulation inside on the ground about to be wrapped with black fabric]({static}/images/panel/panel2.jpg)
I added 4" batts of Rockwool insulation into each frame after it was assembled.
I then wrapped the frame with black speaker fabric and stabled it in place while
trying to pull it taut.
I sat in my theatre while a friend slid a handheld mirror along the wall until I
could see the middle of the speaker in its reflection. This told me the centre
point of where to mount each panel because the reflected sound would take the
same path to my ear.

Title: Garage Door Opener Hack
Date: 2021-12-26
Category: Creations
Summary: Hacking my garage door opener to work over Wifi.
Short: 5
In the quest to automate as much of my house as possible, I thought it would be
useful to be able to remotely control my garage door from my home automation
system. If I suspected that I forgot to close it while leaving, I could check in
my security cameras and then close it from anywhere. It's nice having this peace
of mind, even if it almost never happens.
Instead of reverse engineering the wireless protocol, cracking the encryption,
and sending my own commands, I figured it would be much easier to hack the
hardware. I cracked open a spare remote to find that it contained a basic PCB
with simple tactile switches.
![the six parts of the spare remote on my desk: metal clip, plastic buttons, battery, PCB, and two halves of the case]({static}/images/garage/garage1.jpg)
My plan was to solder an Arduino controlled relay in parallel with the button
that toggled the garage door. I would also power the remote from the 3 V pin. I
soldered four wires on to the appropriate pins.
![a closeup of the green PCB with two wires soldered to the battery terminals and two to the button pins]({static}/images/garage/garage2.jpg)
I drilled a hole in the plastic case and routed the wires through it while
reassembling the remote. It's connected to an Adafruit ESP8266 Arduino with a
relay module shield.
The Arduino joins my isolated home automation Wifi network and connects over
MQTT, a simple messaging protocol, to my automation server. When it receives a
command over MQTT it toggles the relay on for a quarter of a second and then
off, simulating a button press.
![the completed system: an arduino with a white relay and wires leading to the reassembled garage door remote]({static}/images/garage/garage3.jpg)
Update: this system has been flawless for two months now. It's worked every time
I've tried to toggle the door and has never opened by mistake.

Theory
------
- Shinya Yamanaka discovered 4 factors that reset epigenome of cell back to pluriportent stem cell
- Myc, Oct3/4, Sox2 and Klf4
- dont do it all, would turn into tumor
- suggests there are ways to revert cells and reverse ageing
- David Sinclar's lab reversed aging in old mice so they could see like they were young again
- used 3/4 of the reprogramming factors, not Myc as causes cancer

OpenVPN
=======
Setup:
$ sudo su root
- follow steps here:
- https://wiki.debian.org/OpenVPN#TLS-enabled_VPN
- skip editing vars
- add random data to /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/pki/.rnd to get rid of error messages
- use the # ./easyrsa [command] methods
- encrypt CA with password
- build the optional intermediate CA
- https://wiki.debian.org/OpenVPN#Static-Key_VPN
- improves security
- set auth SHA256
- save config file to /etc/openvpn/server.conf
- * set root's shell back to /bin/false *
Static IP:
- create a client (ie. "mediaserver") with easyrsa
$ mkdir /etc/openvpn/ccd
- edit /etc/openvpn/ccd/mediaserver:
ifconfig-push 10.8.0.100 255.255.255.0
- edit /etc/openvpn/server.conf:
client-config-dir /etc/openvpn/ccd
Routing / port forward:
- edit /etc/sysctl.conf:
net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
- edit /etc/default/ufw:
DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY="ACCEPT"
- edit /etc/ufw/before.rules at the top:
*nat
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
# ssh port forwarding
-A PREROUTING -d 159.203.223.101 -p tcp --dport 43655 -j DNAT --to-dest 10.8.0.100:43655

COMMIT
$ sudo ufw disable && sudo ufw enable
$ sudo sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
- source: https://gist.github.com/kimus/9315140
Systemd fix:
- ensure config file is at /etc/openvpn/server.conf
$ sudo systemctl start openvpn@server
$ sudo systemctl enable openvpn@client
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo service openvpn restart
- verify stop / start with ps aux | grep openvpn
- do same for "client"
- source: https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/service-openvpn
Systemd client:
$ sudo mv vpn2-client.ovpn /etc/openvpn/client.conf
$ sudo chown root:root /etc/openvpn/client.conf
$ sudo chmod 600 /etc/openvpn/client.conf
- if there's a password:
$ sudo -E vim /etc/openvpn/auth.txt
$ sudo chmod 600 /etc/openvpn/auth.txt
- add password to file
- add "askpass /etc/openvpn/auth.txt" to config file
- set up systemd:
$ sudo systemctl start openvpn@client
$ sudo systemctl enable openvpn@client
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo service openvpn restart
Disable routing traffic over VPN:
- remove all "redirect-gateway" lines in client config
Gnome client:
- vpn settings, add
- import from file, select vpn2-client.ovpn
- add missing private key from /home/tanner/.cert/nm-openvpn/
- add password gush-tilt-shine-chute-pace-gecko

Notes from Andy
---------------
Mastering your mind:
- can you control yourself?
- can you sit still physically?
- can you control your mind?
- can you concentrate on a simple object and nothing else?
- can you have no thoughts?
- can you free your mind from remembering the past or future?
- can you have no visual images / sounds?
- can you stop your inner monologue?
How to meditate:
- these steps are very gradual, not distinct steps:
- master focusing in the present (1-2 years)
- disregard the past and future
- focus on noises in the present. can jump around or listen to all.
- on failure gently pull back to the present
- mastery when you can do this for an hour
- can start with shorter sessions
- master focusing only a single element in the present
- for example, your breath
- master stopping the monologue
- stop talking to yourself
- stop making comments
- stop the chatter
- master total absorption into that single element
- deeper focus into the element
- Samadhi state
- can only experience your own, dont read the wiki
- Andy reached this only once, he felt omnipotent
- this becomes an intrinsic skill like talking and walking rather than a motor skill like throwing?
- if you dont use it you lose it?
- one you reach Samadhi your mind always meditates

Reviews
-------
Joplin:
- UI is very fast
- has its own sync server now, wait to mature?
- scroll in render view glitchy / laggy when zoomed
- WYSIWYG editor breaks some markdown
- clicking links in WYSIWYG requires ctrl
- can't see note names in notebook tree, so will be hard to find
- maybe that's better?
- mobile app lacks WYSIWYG
- mobile app md editor scroll shitty
- slow to edit notes in mobile app

- Todo feature is cool. can make each note a todo and use the body to add context / info
- easy to rearrange todos
Obsidian:
- highly reviewed, looks sexy but needs more contrast

- has graph and backlinks
- not open source
- files stored as plain text
Wiki.js:
- Supports LaTeX
- Support Markdown (it also supports formats such as html)
- Works in-browser (and therefore can be accessed on any device)
- Editing is easy (although this sounds like a "duh" feature, many self-hosted note apps are more like static site generators)
- Uploading files is simple
- Has multiple backup options (I use GitHub and .gitignore the textbooks)
Boostnote:
- no mobile support
Trilium:
- great encryption
- poor mobile support, Dom uses telegram as a buffer
- fully tried it, mobile is just too broken
- doesnt scroll all the way to the bottom of folders and note contents
- lots of other minor bugs
- parts of UI not updating like archived notes
- randomly refreshes the page
- header sizes all look the same
- today note button is slow to load

Formatting / Template
=====================
Unformatted info can just be sentences, paragraphs, or points.
Section
=======
Place two empty lines before the section header, empty line after
Subsection
-----------
Sub-subsection:
No linebreak for text within a section
Generic lists or steps:
- dash then a space
- lower case for prose
- Data points: gets capital
- like this
- sublists
- two spaces, dash, space
Todo lists:
o unfinished task
v finished task (looks like check mark)
x cancelled task

Title: Wine Crate Coffee Table
Date: 2018-09-12
Category: Creations
Summary: A coffee table made out of wooden wine creates.
Short: 0
My close friend Odai saw a simple coffee table design online that was built out
of four wooden wine crates. They are quite cheap and available at any hardware
store. We each wanted to make one so went and bought eight crates and some
plywood to use as a base.
We went to my local makerspace, Protospace, to build them in the wood shop. We
thought it would be a quick job only taking a few hours, but it turned out to be
a twelve hour job over a couple of days. At least we were in good company!
![the table before staining. four box-like wine crates are on their sides and joined together in a spiral. a messy wood shop is in the background]({static}/images/wine/wine1.jpg)
![the two tables after staining. one face is centred and the contrast between the dark stain and light wood grain shows.]({static}/images/wine/wine2.jpg)
The wine crates were glued and then brad-nailed together. Extra wood was added
under the thin top strips for support. After the glue dried, the brad nails were
painstakingly removed because the ones we used were too long and stuck out.
After being attached to the base, the entire table was sanded and then stained.
We let it dry overnight and returned the following day to add a quick layer of
varnish.
