Erstwhile IT-type retooling for wires-and-pliers. Occasional hiker, aperiodic XC skier, aspiring sailor, sometime bassist, and confirmed menace to potted plants. Bookish. Cat person. Dislikes spectator sports except women's rugby. Latent goth, overfond of dark clothing, dark music, and better absinthe than I can afford. Quietly miserable, often tired and overwrought. Affinity for '70s and '80s minicomputers and a few operating systems which ran thereon. Building a Level 1 HPR Cert rocket.

The Optimist: The universe is expanding and the glass is half full!!!

The Pessimist: The universe is heading toward maximum entropy and the glass is half empty.

The glass does not exist, the universe is a simulation and have successfully muted all alerts about it.

I'm a social media manager looking for work, btw.

The Traditional Vi: Source code for modern Unix systems. I am sharing this as part of history. Most people just need vim or neovim. That is sufficient.

I run NetBSD on hardware that won't run much of anything else, these days, or for which I lack a means of conjuring the necessary PAKs, and I run OpenBSD on anything exposed to the net, or to public WiFi networks. Not sure why I don't run FreeBSD on anything. ZFS would be nice. I suppose one or more of the particularly self-destructive aspects of my mind worries that FreeBSD experience might somehow eventually lead to gainful employment, and we can't have that.
