Back after giving myself a month away from Fedi.
I'll attempt to curate my experience much more, starting with this account and instance.
I want comfy things in my life - I don't need to be adding stress and angst from my online interactions. We can do better. We should do better. Including myself.
My interests cover #tech, #photography, #biking, #motorsport, #fountainpen, and other things I will no doubt need to add here when I remember.
I touch computers in my spare time and self host things. Oh yeah so #selfhosting I guess.
In my other spare time I renovate my house and do #DIY stuff.
Oh and I (used to?) play music. #Guitar I still have and sometimes play, #Saxophone I used to have a couple of decades ago, I had 6 months of Drum lessons, and played Bass for our school band in Rockquest in the late 90's.
I have never done anything that cool since.
Oh I live in New Zealand, Aotearoa.

Flippin' 'eck, Tucker!
losttourist@social.chatty.monsterThe AWS region us-east-1 seems to be having a bit of a moment and the front page of https://downdetector.co.uk/ right now is a really good guide to who uses Amazon for their services.

festal@tldr.nettime.orgOK. #signal is down. And it seems to be an issue with Amazon Web Services. Not the end of the world, but a reminder that a centralized cloud is a single point of failure.

pertho@bsd.cafeAWS widespread outage. Most of the services I use at $day_job are down. Hooray for hosting silos! The Internet is supposed to be decentralized!

benbrown@masto.hackers.townStarted working on a zine to go with the roaming library. My idea is I can stash the device at my coffee shop, then leave some copies of the zine that will include QR codes to join the “secret WiFi” and get to the website where the goodies can be found.

nigelFor the last few months I’ve been working on a circuit racing truck, helping a guy upgrade the electronics controlling the engine (common-rail Cat C15) and transmission. Finally fired it up last week. Video here

jasoncoon@leds.socialYet another mind-blowing and highly educational video by AlphaPhoenix, in which he builds a 2,000,000,000 FPS camera and uses it to watch light move. In his garage. 🤯
Seriously, just go watch all of his videos.

Hello #PortfolioDay
I'm a painter and game-developer. My dream is to make a gallery show and complete my first indie game. In the meantime, illustration is how I pay the bills.
If you want world-building illustrations or design sketches for games, tabletop RPGs, I can help bring your world to life. 🫡
