I’ve created the following script to help remove messages from the PinePhone’s modem’s cache. This issue was originally discussed in the following thread, with my post being linked here. https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=10014&pid=71329#pid71329 https://gitlab.com/redemptionstudio/modem-cache-manager/ Changelog 20211202 Version 0.0.5: Rewrite. Pushed an update to grant functionality for alerting when modem is almost full and for clearing read messages. Needs variable validation and a way to auto-detect the modem device.

Today, I bumped into an issue of undesired keyboard behavior. Long ago I discovered the joys of the Compose Key, and within the past month I had to set up keyboards for languages besides English, as well as setting up IBus in order to have access to the full range of International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) characters (although I’m pretty sure I still don’t have this functionality truly working). Besides these things, I thought I would never have to touch my keyboard layout again.

When I began 3D printing, I watched instructional and introductory videos to tell me more about the process, the art, the product, the machine, and the rest of the lot. The videos often included time lapses of the featured print and I thought it would be a perfect addition to Redemption Studio. When I published A Dice Tower Gift, Part Two, I mentioned I would provide the scripts I wrote in order to produce the videos. All in all, I constructed six scripts which I used to learn FFMPEG, Montage, and several other programs, not to mention Bash’s getopts, data validation, arrays and more. It felt rewarding by the end of the process! Those scripts are provided in the Bash Scripts downloads.
