Chinwag admin, fan of open communication standards, maintainer of communities, male comedienne.

Winner of Time Magazine "Person of the Year" 2006 and will never get tired of that joke.

I talk about #retrocomputing a lot. I also do a lot of #gardening and occasionally make #bread and #beer. I have been a Unix #sysadmin for about 30 years but I think I'll be OK.

I live in #Melbourne, #Australia and sometimes tell jokes on stages around here. I co-host a #StarTrek podcast with @ThePingMachine

@nprofile1q... if you were able to deliver the opposite version of this setting, or an option to follow the user's global settings instead of "make everything dark", I would sing your praises for life.

I have been using some variety of Linux based OS as my primary desktop computing environment for around 20 years and I have never and would never try to convince anyone else to do the same.

In fact, I would not recommend computers at all. I advocate for leaving technology behind, retreating into the wilderness, and raising a new generation on carefully crafted tales of horror and doom so that should a stranger ever wander into the village with a glowing rectangle they will be thrown into a lake immediately.
