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

My job? Computer Sisyphus and Meme Historian. I work on cryptography, FIPS, and open source. I like video games, books, and riding my bike. I use Arch, btw.

I work for Chainguard, but I definitely don't speak for them.

Sometimes you just have to sit back, relax, and let the train wreck itself.

Linux nerd, game nerd, dad jokes, memes, opinions. (OMG, so many opinions.)

Love linux, autistic / hb

Huge SciFi fan 🖖

Just a cold robot on the internet hacking, shitposting, helping and doing things

I joke. A lot.
I post about planes and ATC stuff. A lot.

Pretty unfiltered, thoughts/opinions my own not my employers. Probably overanalyzing things... Or am I? What does that really mean? Maybe if I calculate the optimal amount of analysis...

Ich bin Peter, in der Slowakei geboren, lebe in Prag.

Ich interessiere mich für gesünderes Leben, Züge, Computer (Linux-User hier) und reise gerne nach Deutschland, um dort jede Menge Blechkuchen zu essen.

Ich gebe bei Tchibo gefühlt immer noch massenhaft Deutsche Mark aus. Ex-Fahrradbesitzer. Mein Tag beginnt mit Kaffee aus der Mokkakanne.

Joined mastodonapp.uk back in Nov 2022. I have a 'backup' a/c on mendeddrum.org.

Oldish bloke, got to retirement age in 2024. Now retired, due to the old line about "when it stops being fun, stop doing it".

Anyway, old-school coder. I've worked with everything from punch-cards to Perl, via machine language and microcode, C, C++, SQL, etc, etc. Now a happy Linux user on Garuda.

Getting more radically 'left' as I get older. I despise all racists, homophobes, Nazis, etc.
