Work in progress, I'll write this up properly when I'm done.

Almost all credit goes to @maxogden for putting me on to this and pointing me in the right direction for each of these items.

Prerequisites:

• Raspberry Pi
• Kindle Paperwhite freed from its locked down state (jailbroken) http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=198446
  • You have to downgrade your Kindle to 5.3.1 to install the current jailbreak; that's just a matter of getting the old version image, putting it on your Kindle via USB and telling it to install "upgrade". Then you put in the Jailbreak files, load the ebook and break.
• Your kindle will be quick to detect an upgrade is available so it'll want to upgrade soon afterwards but the jailbreak will last but you have to reinstall the developer certificates so it's a bit of a pain but doable. Find all the instructions on the mobileread.com forums and wiki.

/* ~/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.Dict

This file remaps the key bindings of a single user on Mac OS X 10.5 to more
closely match default behavior on Windows systems. This makes the Command key
behave like Windows Control key. To use Control instead of Command, either swap
Control and Command in Apple->System Preferences->Keyboard->Modifier Keys...
or replace @ with ^ in this file.

Here is a rough cheatsheet for syntax.

Google Chrome Favicons For Bookmarklets

1. Open the Bookmark Manager and export your bookmarks;
2. Open the exported html file in your favorite editor and look for the bookmarklet you want a favicon applied to;
3. Convert the 16x16 px (or greater) favicon you want to use into the BASE64 format (I used Base64 Image Encoder);
4. Now you can add the favicon via adding the ICON="data:image/insert-your-base64-image-code-here" attribute in the link;
5. Save the file and import it in the bookmark manager.

Done! If the favicon doesn’t show up, try clicking on the bookmarklet. Afterwards the changes should stick and you can delete the imported bookmarks folder. If you have sync activated the favicons on your bookmarklets will also show up on your other PC, Mac, smartphone etc.

How to download streaming video

Streaming just means a download that they don't want you to keep. But Chrome's developer tools make it easy to access what's really going on under the hood.

Open Developer Tools

From the page where you want to download some things, go into your chrome menu to open the developer tools. You can either:

1.  (On a mac): Command-option-J
2. (On a PC): Control-alt-J
