L'Etat, c'est moi

Hi,

Autistic. Please remember that if we ever have a conversation.

Finally retired after working 51 years. Still not sure what I want to do when I grow up.

Left school at 16, worked various jobs for some years then in IT in various places from 1985 until 2008.

Bought a franchise for a lawn care company in 2009, just after the financial fiasco. Found out that was a bad time to start a business.

Did other things.

I use Arch Linux with Gnome and the Vivaldi Browser

Proud to be Antifa, like my grandfather, who was killed fighting fascism in WWII, and was posthumously awarded the Air Medal and the Purple Heart.

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

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.
