Current

Here’s what I’m currently working on. To see past projects (complete, on hold, or otherwise check the archive):

Wayland

Building bswc, a master-stack style dynamic wayland compsitor, and many other related todos/side-projects such as neuipc.

Operating Systems

Really enjoying learning more about operating systems, and thinking of ways to incorporate distributed operating systems into real life (9front, ambient computing, etc.).

Specific topics:

• Distributed memory hierarchy
• Userspace drivers and microkernels
• MicroVMs
• Minimalist Linux as IDE (derive and alpine)

verso_2

A minimal, unix-centric, and easy static site generator. It’s what this site is built on

Currently:

• Working out the kinks as I create posts, add content, and expand the capabilities
• Exploring ways to integrate my stagit instance into the site, as well as other cool bonuses

Current bugs:

• RSS feed is not really up to snuff
• Date/Timestamp management needs to be thought about harder

TODOs

Wayland

• Herbe style notifications
• Monocle and full screen in bswc
• Btree layout in bswc
• Monitor switching controls
• Per-monitor layouts
• Hotplug frees on monitors
• Focus/float rules
• Cursor and maybe decorations?
• Some bug fixes around focus and master width (diff per workspace) (4fdb065 and 2786f64)
• Per-monitor workspaces (8454558)
• Find bard/ipc/neumenu regression/crash
• Figure out why neumenu not showing up
  • Seems like launching Xwayland has something to do with it.
  • Impossible to bug hunt atm

Infra

Security

• Install Tailscale on hetznerbsd
• Restrict SSH to Tailscale interface only (remove open SSH port from pf.conf)
• Restrict ZNC (port 1026) to Tailscale only

Git

• Add Codeberg → git.chappelle.dev push mirror
• Git hosting is currently fragile — pushes only work from binkd@hetznerbsd
  • Consider setting up a dedicated git user with authorized keys so any machine can push
  • stagit is read-only presentation; all write access needs to go through a proper auth layer ok

LuaBrow

• See TODO
