I'm here to meet like-minded people, share knowledge with them and also because of the adorable flans  

And now for something completely different:

- discovering BSDs 
- listening to music; mostly Metal and Synthwave
- reading fiction and tech-related books
- language of the month: 日本語 
- prograing language of the month: FORTH
- game of the month: Unhallowed by Blerkotron

Because nobody would expect hobbies within a bio section  !?

I'm watching a youngster who's not a native English speaker present his highly technical work at #ebc25. He's showing slides and reading his talk off his phone.

This always impresses me. I couldn't do it. Kudos.

Not naming names, I don't want to embarrass him. But it's brave, and *very* hard work.

Don’t give in to hopelessness.

Everything we do helps, no matter how small.

Ten days left! I would appreciate your support.

How much time do you waste spend configuring your $EDITOR?

For a #sysadmin, networking knowledge is the difference between a bad day and a routine one.

Seriously, folks. @rudytheelder is running a Kickstarter for his new novel, and for an extra buck you can get ten of his novels in ebook.

Rucker is one of the reasons we have cyberpunk. His worst books will blow your mind. His best ones... well, what's above mind-blowing?

Update 5: Watch Rudy Write · Sqinks

I mentioned earlier that I'm offering  the final edit of the Sqinks novel. It's in the form of very heavily marked up paperback that I made, and which I only finished editing on September 12, 2025. This is a key collector's item, suitable for scholarly collections. Over two thousand changes in the author's hand.  Check out some photos of it below. As close to watching Rudy write as you can get.

The Zone gives, the Zone takes, but most importantly... the Zone is now over. Which means I need to find the next game to download, which leads to the inevitable question:

Which game(s) would you like to see me stream next?  

As usual, there are multiple choices, and the poll is live for 3 days (72 hours). If the result is a draw, the next game will be selected by me or at random from all tied options, depending on whether I have a preference. During these tie breakers, games marked with 🔁 have the lowest priority (because I have streamed those before).

Also, in the interest of transparency: I removed KHOLAT and ArmA from the list because KHOLAT would probably not last longer than one stream, and ArmA will likely be even more boring than my Squad streams. If there's any interest in having me stream those games, though, I'm open to adding them back in for the next poll.

Boosts/repeats/renotes are very much appreciated
