Introductions seem to be a thing around here, so ...

Hello! I'm Dave.
I worked in the computer industry for 40+ years: hardware design at first, turned to software after a bit. Now retired, and it definitely beats working!
Actively involved in motorsport, as a track and rally marshal
Dabble a bit with photograpy, at a fairly basic level
As a technophile, I'm intrigued by this new world I've stumbled into.
Look forward to finding my way around, making friends, and discovering interesting things.

@dilling Hi! - I get the feeling you'll enjoy learning about this place (and how it works)!
@dilling an #introduction is indeed a thing here 😊 — even better if you hashtag it, prolifically (and you don’t need to delete & start over to do that: you can edit your toots! Yes, really!). Welcome aboard and happy days…
@notbovvered How do I edit a Toot?
@dilling @notbovvered use the MetaText app
@SamYoung841 @notbovvered Thanks -- I've downloaded the app and I'm using if now, but it's not obvious to me how to edit.
@notbovvered @dilling How do you edit toots?
@SuzanneTyrpak @dilling select the three dots … bottom right on any of your toots and you’ll get a pop-up menu of options, including Edit (different options on other people’s toots).

Thank you for your help re: editing posts!

@dilling hello, Dave. Greetings from t’other side of town.
@Jimothy Hi Jim, and welcome! You need to get some stuff in your profile so that I, and everyone else, have some clue who you are and where you're from! 👋
