 ## REFACTORING:
+- get moby's kernel closer to mainline
+  - i.e. reduce the number of megi patches i apply
+  - don't use pmOS's defconfig, but nixpkgs default config + whatever extras i need
 - add import checks to my Python nix-shell scripts
 - consolidate ~/dev and ~/ref
   - ~/dev becomes a link to ~/ref/cat/mine

 #### upstreaming to non-nixpkgs repos
 - gtk: build schemas even on cross compilation: <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/247844>
+- gnome-calls retry net connection when DNS is down
 
 
 ## IMPROVEMENTS:
-- systemd/journalctl: use a less shit pager
-  - there's an env var for it: SYSTEMD_PAGER? and a flag for journalctl
-- kernels: ship the same kernel on every machine
-  - then i can tune the kernels for hardening, without duplicating that work 4 times
 - zfs: replace this with something which doesn't require a custom kernel build
 - mpv: add media looping controls (e.g. loop song, loop playlist)
+- curlftpfs: replace with something better
+  - safer (rust? actively maintained? sandboxable?)
+  - handles spaces/symbols in filenames
+  - has better multi-stream perf (e.g. `sane-sync-music` should be able to copy N items in parallel)
+- firefox: open *all* links (http, https, ...) with system handler
+  - removes the need for open-in-mpv, firefox-xdg-open, etc.
+  - matrix room links *just work*.
+  - `network.protocol-handler.external.https = true` in about:config *seems* to do this,
+    but breaks some webpages (e.g. Pleroma)
 
 ### security/resilience
-- validate duplicity backups!
+- enable `snapper` btrfs snapshots (`services.snapper`)
-- encrypt more ~ dirs (~/archives, ~/records, ..?)
-  - best to do this after i know for sure i have good backups
 - /mnt/desko/home, etc, shouldn't include secrets (~/private)
   - 95% of its use is for remote media access and stuff which isn't in VCS (~/records)
 - port all sane.programs to be sandboxed
-  - sandbox `curlftpfs`
+  - sandbox `nix`
-  - sandbox `sshfs-fuse`
   - enforce that all `environment.packages` has a sandbox profile (or explicitly opts out)
-  - revisit "non-sandboxable" apps and check that i'm not actually just missing mountpoints
-    - LL_FS_RW=/ isn't enough -- need all mount points like `=/:/proc:/sys:...`.
-  - ensure non-bin package outputs are linked for sandboxed apps
-    - i.e. `outputs.man`, `outputs.debug`, `outputs.doc`, ...
   - lock down dbus calls within the sandbox
     - otherwise anyone can `systemd-run --user ...` to potentially escape a sandbox
     - <https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-dbus-proxy>
-  - remove `.ssh` access from Firefox!
-    - limit access to `~/knowledge/secrets` through an agent that requires GUI approval, so a firefox exploit can't steal all my logins
-  - port sanebox to a compiled language (hare?)
-    - it adds like 50-70ms launch time _on my laptop_. i'd hate to know how much that is on the pinephone.
