These tasks can be run periodically, in response to triggers, or ad-hoc./p>h3 idan-example-automatically-mark-emails-as-read>An example: automatically mark emails as read/h3>p>If your inbox has thousands of unread emails that are unlikely ever to be read, and you are anxious about this, you might benefit from automatically managing your unread email count.I’ve created a script which, on weekdays, marks as read strong>any unread email older than 24 hours/strong>. This lets me skim the subject lines in my inbox, open the emails that seem interesting, and ignore the rest, which will quietly vanish a day later./p>p>Combined with a hrefhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v5nt3gE9dGHQ>Priority Inbox/a>,this script helps me have a high ratio of “effectiveness at email” to “attention spent on email”,which I lack if I have to read every single message in my inbox.Despite how risky this approach seems, it hasn’t caused me to miss out on anything important./p>p>You can see my “Mark All As Read” script a hrefhttps://script.google.com/d/1d0jMBap0ESOZim-bNHdJz44ykgHIxgQDC_HhU6yA-b8TbPHN394smyJs/edit?uspsharing>here/a>./p>h3 iddevelopment>Development/h3>p>Scripting Gmail is very approachable. The API covers lots of functionality, and the documentation is comprehensive.You don’t need an in-depth knowledge of JavaScript.Google even provides a little web-based IDE in which to edit and debug your scripts.My one complaint is that there is no mock environment for testing - you have to develop your scripts on a real inbox.If this is a problem for you, you can use a dummy email account for development./p>h3 idin-conclusion>In conclusion/h3>p>In the future, I’d be interested to try a hrefhttps://script.google.com>script.google.com/a> to automate my use of other Google services.For now, it’s proven extremely useful at managing my email, and I strongly recommend it./p>  /main>/article>article classpost itemscope itemtypehttp://schema.org/BlogPosting>  header>    h2>a href/2012/12/01/how-to-replace-a-roland-microcube-speaker/ itempropname headline>How to Replace a Roland Micro Cube Speaker/a>/h2>    time datetime2012-12-01T00:00:00+00:00 itempropdatePublished>      01 Dec 2012    /time>  /header>  main itemproparticlebody>  p>img src/img/microcube.JPG altMicro Cube Speaker Connection />/p>p>A few years ago I dropped my a hrefhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002D0096/refas_li_ss_tl?ieUTF8&camp1789&creative390957&creativeASINB0002D0096&linkCodeas2&tagutb-qa-20>Roland Micro Cube/a> guitar amplifier and ripped the speaker cone. As a result, it would make terrible farty noises if played above a certain volume. Last week I replaced the speaker - here are the steps I followed./p>p>Tools needed: a screwdriver, a phone, and a credit card. No soldering iron required./p>ol>  li>    p>Call a hrefhttp://www.rolandus.com/company/contact_us/>Roland Customer Support/a> and ask for a replacement Micro Cube speaker, model number W120FP70-00C. It costs about $30 with tax and shipping. Mine arrived after about two weeks./p>  /li>  li>    p>When you have the new speaker, set the Micro Cube down with its grill facing up. Unscrew the grill, then unscrew the old speaker from the mount./p>  /li>  li>    p>Gently remove the old speaker from the mount, so its connectors are visible./p>  /li>  li>    p>Pull the connectors out of the old speaker - they’ll slide off with a little force, as shown in the above photo - and connect them to the new speaker. The connectors are different sizes, so don’t worry about connecting them incorrectly./p>  /li>  li>    p>Mount the new speaker and reattach the front grill./p>  /li>  li>    p>Plug in your guitar and rock out./p>  /li>/ol>p>This is the most straightforward method I’ve seen to replace a Micro Cube’s speaker.
