I do something with IT Security...
I love old computers and hate authoritarian people. Former leftie, now political homeless, but always a radical supporter of the democratic system. Strong believer in a small government, personal accountability and responsibility. No time and patience for bullshit.

An evening well spent...
I have new computer speakers :-)
I got a broken cheap chinese valve amplifier, fixed and tuned it. They didn't use high quality parts and I replaces the capacitors and the output transformer. A pair of broken active Quadral speakers I freed from their terrible digital amps. The subwoofer is an 20 years old Yamaha sub I had lying around and knew I would use it some day.
I don't know why people are satisfied with those infernal Bluetooth speakers where DSPs eat all the nuances when you can have this. One can literally find it in the trash and fix it for little money. Just check out you nearest recycling centre or flee market.
Trolling is a art!

Hallo, ich bin #NeuHier.
Gibt es hier Menschen und Unternehmen aus dem Lebensmittelbereich? Ich freu mich auf Vernetzung.

Do you wonder how email and Usenet worked on the internet before always-on lines between the servers?
There was a Unix program called UUCP, which was used to syncronise data between the servers at night using telephone lines.
You wrote a Usenet message during the day and "posted" it. That message got synced to the federated Usenet network during the night, and the recipient of that Usenet message got it tomorrow morning.
Looks like the "war" between vim and EMACS is over. EMACS won.
