Open Source
Larvitz
@[email protected]
IT Consultant from Germany, Linux enthusiast, BSD fanboy and firmly convinced that Ancient Domains of Mystery is the greatest video game of all time (and always will be).
You'll find me here talking about Open Source, self-hosting, advanced networking (proud operator of AS201379), smart home shenanigans, and anything you can torment with a terminal. Cat pictures also welcome.
Left, antifascist, vegan. The trifecta your uncle warned you about.

@[email protected]Hi, I’m Nik. 👋 I live in Los Angeles, California ☀️ with my wife ❤️ and our cats and dogs 🐾.
I’m a software engineer working primarily with Python 🐍, and am the @pybeach founder 🏛️ and a @socalpython organizer 🎤.
I do indoor rowing 🚣♂️, ride bicycles 🚴♂️, pretend to read 📖, pretend to write 🖋️, listen to too many podcasts 🎙️, and still wear a mask 😷 because COVID isn’t over 🦠.
I often put bonus content in media alt text 🖼️.

@[email protected]I’m a writer, but don’t expect deep, personal shit. I’m a sysadmin who doesn’t like nerds, they’re every bit as willing to be the most vicious and petty of bullies as the people they claim they’re so very different from.
But as individuals, they’re all right.
If I say “free software” I ONLY am speaking of the price.
