Hi and welcome! 👋

I'm Gina aka foosel. I'm a full-time nerd, full-time open source maintainer and creator of OctoPrint ("the snappy web interface for your 3d printer"), and in my free time I also happen to game (video games and boardgames), bake bread (since before the pandemic even!), go bouldering or work on way too many side projects.

What to expect here? Dev related stuff (Python, JS, ...), the occasional OSS maintenance related rant, posts about small pet projects (software, hardware, gamedev), Boulder stuff, pictures of self baked bread, game/book/show/movie recommendations, & personal opinions on stuff.

Oh, and let's not forget the random pictures of & with plushies, because why not.

Also, LEGO.

Turns out I did not only forget to add the #introduction tag to the above thread but also missed the opportunity to make this easier discoverable with related tags. So let's fix that!

@foosel yay! Found the creator of my favorite open source project. :)
@foosel maintainer is thankless job thanks
@foosel On Friday, I made #pizza from scratch for the first time. Like making my own dough, rolling it out, adding way too much toppings and baking it just right. It was a first time attempt and sooo yummy!
@alternative_be If you plan to do this more often and don't have one yet, treat yourself to a pizza steel. Not a stone, a steel. Amazing heat transfer, leads to a beautiful crust ^^
@foosel lol that list of interests sounds like a typical summary of the local timeline on any given day
@guenther 🤷‍♀️
@foosel what i meant to say was "you're going to like it here" :)
@guenther Oh, I'm sure about that. The question is just whether I can manage the split with the bird site 😅 Not the first time I've tried that sadly.
@foosel What do you do with your StreamDeck? I have bought one but the Use Cases could be all done with other tools. Now, my StreamDeck is just standing around and it feels useless 

@jbernoth Currently not much because I switched back to Linux earlier this year, and the OBS integration there is tricky.

When I was still using windows I mostly used it for OBS (scene switching, stream/recording start and stop) and video calls (muting, camera on/off). Need to figure out how to do this again because doing all of that with the mouse is annoying me 😅

@foosel Yeah, as a french man, i can say you bake outstandingly good looking baguettes :D but I also love when you code Octoprint for us :)
@foosel bouldering huh? Look-y @Gina - another… uhm… Gina!
@bekopharm @Gina Already fell over her account and introduced myself ^^
@foosel @bekopharm the more Gina's the merrier 😁
@foosel thanks for Octoprint, and the insights you deliver from time to time.
@foosel OctoPrint makes my dad incredibly happy 😊
@kiview That makes *me* happy 😊
@foosel I love Octoprint! Thank you.
@dschmidlin Thank you for telling me 😊
@foosel nice to see you in the Fediverse

@foosel

The 3d-printers at London Hackspace use the software that you created. :D

Thank you for your help. :D

@foosel I'd motion you qualify as a full-time nerd, full-time open source maintainer ^^
