Let's start this experiment: Ditching GNU Bash for a Linux port of
OpenBSD's ksh.
While we're at it, finally nuke shell history files. I lost these things
on many occasions and then some important command was lost. This sucks.
(Addendum: Switching the shell was almost trivial. Guess I didn't use
any fancy Bash features in the first place.)

Got two weeks of vacation coming up. I want to do some Linux/UNIX stuff
again, because I haven't done that for almost a year now. My RSI
problems are not gone, but largely manageable.
I want to deep-dive into the booting process, initramfs, init systems,
all that. Of course, I already have a good grasp of what's going on, but
I never built my own initramfs from scratch and never wrote a simple
init system. Maybe even have a look at udev replacements.

Just realized that my system monitor, [infofeld2], does not even have a
graph to show hard disk activity. Goes to show how little that matters
in this day and age.
