Open Source Advocate | Software Developer | Webmaster 🇪🇺🇮🇹

Friendly and enterprising geek committed to promoting user freedom and computer literacy. As a lifelong scholar and social activist, I specialize in Free/Libre and Open Source software development. A rational free thinker, I believe in personal growth through the power of knowledge and community.

Golden rule: respect → more respect.

What Orwell feared were those who would ban books.
What Huxley feared was that there would be no one who wanted to read one.

(Boosting is not necessarily (fully) agreeing/approving).

I am a liberal computer geek, hockey nut (and goalie), web 2.0 fanatic, dad of two, and husband of one. I am also a veteran (i.e., old) software developer and computer hacker.

I've been a Mastodonian since Sept 2017, originally as @jdarnold @ sdf.org

Yo ! Ancien informaticien, ancien de #Myrys je suis maintenant néo-rural au fin fond du #Gers et je plante des arbres dans mon grand #jardin. Mais je continue à faire du #code et de la #technoFutilité avec du #povray et du #fortran :)

I think of myself as an old hillbilly hippie. I've had several careers: Physics, personal counseling, computer science/software development. Unix/Linux.
Now I'm an old retired guy. I read a LOT. I think of myself as a liberal progressive politically. Some people know me as KB6QL.

I love the Grateful Dead. I love Gracie Slick. I also love the work of Johann Sebastian Bach. I have loved their work for more than 50 years. Oxford comma. Born at 310ppm CO2.
