I enjoy expressing myself as a DJ, musician, and writer. When I write, it’s usually on my personal website/blog. I also write letters - on my late great-grandfather's 1953 Royal Quiet Deluxe typewriter or by hand.

Fred Rogers is a personal hero - the kind of Christian and human being I aspire to become.

Industrialised information consumption apparatus, FOSS fanatic, misguided believer in a better world, and owner of too many opinions.

I would appreciate if you boost this toot
https://mstdn.social/@theeclecticdyslexic/116169411669556587 (even though it's old). My job right now is to replace gesture typing in #Heliboard, and it helps to have more people contributing data, or spreading the word around!

After a break from social media I'm back. Same snark, twice the F words. Still loving FOSS, retro tech, and my chickens. Now with a kid in-tow.

Long time dev coder, experimenter. Enjoy disconnecting for hikes, living in the DEEP woods. Enjoy building local AI ala Ollama/StableDiff. Messin' with Linux, Python, Lora and all that open source goodness. I have a cat and like dogs.

My friends call me Bubba.

WARY of AI images and vibe coding, tho I do ALL of those. Believe AI gen Apps need a deep security audit BEFORE RELEASE, but that won’t happen.

Structural biology (XFEL crystallography, cryoEM, electron crystallography) data processing methods developer. I use my degree in chemistry to write software to use physics to understand biology. As of 2024, based in Hamburg. Ich hätte gern, wenn du mein schlecht Deutsch korrigierst, ob du das willst.

70% coffee by volume. I’m really into electronics, 3D printing, and sewing right now, and trying very hard to learn German. I have a very fluffy and affectionate cat. Big fan of bicycles and trains, better public infrastructure generally, and investment in collective wellbeing generally. Food motivated; very easily bribed with coffee and pastries. Always learning.

I'd rather you get a sense of my values from checking my feed, but in very-very-brief, fascism is bad, open source and open science are necessary but not sufficient, and the right to repair includes yourself.
