"Going thirty-eight Dan, chill the fuck out, mow your damn lawn and sit the hell down"

---

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.

For 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

You know things are getting extreme when iFixit.com puts together a installation guide.

Yet 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.

Just found out tonight that my FIL has moved to Linux!

He even installed it on his Surface Pro. He's 71 and he's not having any of the bollocks by M$ :)

Hello

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. 🫡

@jimbob @mike @liamvhogan I found far less issues on LMDE than Mint proper, which probably goes along with the Debian/Ubuntu comparison hah.
