Recovered republican; voted republican from '72 until '00. Never again. Profile pic and Springtime in Trumpistan by Hieronymus Bosch. Both are details from the Hell panel of The Garden of Earthly Delights.

I program #SpringBoot web services and have now managed to avoid managing people. I used to program dev tools & before that, program mobile phones.

Once ran the same early Windows 8 build instance on both a hypervisor and native boot.

Old enough to remember #Symbian #C++.

I really like painting miniature figures like those produced for #warhammer, but am not so keen on #GamesWorkshop.

#OnePageRules is my current #TableTop #Wargaming jam.

Involved in some kind of computer bullshit.
