Putting Docker on its own pseudo filesystem

Docker on BTRFS is very buggy and can result in a fully-unusable system, in that it will completely butcher the underlying BTRFS filesystem in such a way that it uses far more disk space than it needs and can get into a state where it cannot even delete any image, requiring one to take drastic actions up to and including reformatting the entire affected BTRFS root file system.

According to the official Docker documentation:

btrfs requires a dedicated block storage device such as a physical disk. This block device must be formatted for Btrfs and mounted into /var/lib/docker/.

In my experience, you will still run into issues even if you use a dedicated partition. No, it seems it requires a standalone

Decode the Battle.net Mobile Authenticator (android) secret data into an otpauth url. Requires a way to access the private data of the application (i.e. a rooted android).
#!/usr/bin/ruby
# REQUIRES:
# * rooted android, as otherwise you can't read the applications private data
# * to display the qr code "qrencode" (http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/)
# and "display" from ImageMagick
# This script "decrypts" the token from the internal state of the
# Battle.net Mobile Authenticator on android application, converting
# it into an "otpauth" url (https://code.google.com/p/google-authenticator/wiki/KeyUriFormat)
