#791. Making my own uC architecture and write it in HDL.
2. Make a lisp machine
3. Hacking a game for a old game console (not an emulator, you have to actually get it working on the physical machine).
4. Experiment with different types of OS on uControllers.
5. Hacking to gather a home automation system.
6. Implement a whole web server in the uController from scratch (means you have to make your own protocol stack and such things).
7. Make a widely used C library.
8. Get my long standing dream of localized electronics kit store to launch.
9. Get a patent on something new
