Curiosa di tutto, amo leggere, riflettere, sognare. Mi piace la tecnologia, specialmente nel suo volto più sensibile ed umano.
Uso Linux e amo il software libero e l'open source.
Credo nella condivisione della conoscenza.

I don't expect a follow back. Mostly here to stay in the loop and not really to share much.

Mostly sick of writing code, too boring. I might make some minor changes to some programs I have been working on. I might also highlight some of the old programs that I have written from last year, no matter how 'incorrect' and silly they might be. Everything I have written so far has been for the browser, and only Vanilla.

I might change languages to something less exciting, most likely C.

Anything I write is open source.

I will probably reply if you leave a line.

I don't follow much.

The answer is, 101010

I ❤️ FOSS and

I ❤️ 😻

I also ❤️ anime/mangas

The philosophy of my life is:

"Act only according to that maxim whereby you can, at the same time, will that it should become a universal law."

"Wo Unrecht zu Recht wird […]"

„Für den Triumph des Bösen reicht es, wenn die Guten nichts tun!“

Im Übrigen möchte ich anmerken, dass die AFD keine Alternative ist, sondern eine Schande und eine Katastrophe.
