+  - don't use pmOS's defconfig, but nixpkgs default config + whatever extras i need
 - add import checks to my Python nix-shell scripts

   - ~/dev becomes a link to ~/ref/cat/mine

 ### sops/secrets

 #### 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 `nix`
   - 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.
 - make dconf stuff less monolithic
   - i.e. per-app dconf profiles for those which need it. possible static config.
   - flatpak/spectrum has some stuff to proxy dconf per-app
-- canaries for important services
-  - e.g. daily email checks; daily backup checks
-  - integrate `nix check` into Gitea actions?
 
 ### user experience
 - rofi: sort items case-insensitively
-- xdg-desktop-portal shouldn't kill children on exit
-  - *maybe* a job for `setsid -f`?
 - replace starship prompt with something more efficient
   - watch `forkstat`: it does way too much

 ### perf
-- debug nixos-rebuild times
-  - use `systemctl list-jobs` to show what's being waited on
-  - i think it's `systemd-networkd-wait-online.service` that's blocking this?
-    - i wonder what interface it's waiting for. i should use `--ignore=...` to ignore interfaces i don't care about.
-  - also `wireguard-wg-home.target` when net is offline
 - add `pkgs.impure-cached.<foo>` package set to build things with ccache enabled
   - every package here can be auto-generated, and marked with some env var so that it doesn't pollute the pure package set
   - would be super handy for package prototyping!

-# pinephone GPS happens in EG25 modem
-# serial control interface to modem is /dev/ttyUSB2
-# after enabling GPS, readout is /dev/ttyUSB1
-#
-# minimal process to enable modem and GPS:
-# - `echo 1 > /sys/class/modem-power/modem-power/device/powered`
-# - `screen /dev/ttyUSB2 115200`
-#   - `AT+QGPSCFG="nmeasrc",1`
-#   - `AT+QGPS=1`
-# this process is automated by my `eg25-control` program and services (`eg25-control-powered`, `eg25-control-gps`)
-# - see the `modules/` directory further up this repository.
-#
-# now, something like `gpsd` can directly read from /dev/ttyUSB1,
-# or geoclue can query the GPS directly through modem-manager
-#
-# initial GPS fix can take 15+ minutes.
-# meanwhile, services like eg25-manager or eg25-control-freshen-agps can speed this up by uploading assisted GPS data to the modem.
-#
-# support/help:
-# - geoclue, gnome-maps
-#   - irc: #gnome-maps on irc.gimp.org
-#   - Matrix: #gnome-maps:gnome.org  (unclear if bridged to IRC)
-#
-# programs to pair this with:
-# - `satellite-gtk`: <https://codeberg.org/tpikonen/satellite>
-#   - shows/tracks which satellites the GPS is connected to; useful to understand fix characteristics
-# - `gnome-maps`: uses geoclue, has route planning
-# - `mepo`: uses gpsd, minimalist, flaky, and buttons are kinda hard to activate on mobile
-# - puremaps?
-# - osmin?
-#
-# known/outstanding bugs:
-# - `systemctl start eg25-control-gps` can the hang the whole system (2023/10/06)
-#   - i think it's actually `eg25-control-powered` which does this (started by the gps)
-#   - best guess is modem draws so much power at launch that other parts of the system see undervoltage
-#   - workaround is to hard power-cycle the system. the modem may not bring up after reboot: leave unpowered for 60s and boot again.
-#
-# future work:
-# - integrate with [wigle](https://www.wigle.net/) for offline equivalent to Mozilla Location Services
