You probably heard about me because I am the founder of the Twisted python networking engine open source project. But I’m also the author and maintainer of several other smaller projects, a writer and public speaker about software and the things software affects (i.e.: everything), and a productivity nerd due to my ADHD. I also post a lot about politics; I’d personally prefer to be apolitical but unfortunately the global rising tide of revanchist fascism is kind of dangerous to ignore.

I run a tiny security consulting company, make hotsauce, watch cartoons and figured out how to weaponize home assistant. I found 118 dollars of btc in my garage.

Linux ✅
@[email protected]Linux: a free computer operating system family.
Linux was created by a Finnish student, Linus Torvalds, stating in a typically humble manner of Finns that it "won't be anything big and professional".
Replacing for example Windows with Linux means user freedom.
The best Linux? - The best one is "YOUnux" 🙂 test & find your own. Steam Deck ❤️

@[email protected]Writer, migrant, surprisingly nice in person. I write, these days mostly explainers. Old queer. I would rather be blocked than tone policed. It's all warnable content. More meme literate than I should be at this age. I mainly shitpost, then sometimes make you cry. ❤️
(I take #alt4u help, thanks)
