Cishet white male. Antifascist. Offspring of immigrants. Free software and self-hosting advocate. My head is socialist, my heart is anarchist. Anticapitalist. European.

I'm interested in operating systems, application and utility software, the claims made about the future we were promised with personal computing, and the present we've ended up with. I think computing is and always has been a means to entrench and strengthen existing power structures.

Mad collector, shmup addict, vintage and #retrogaming enthusiast, 'uomo universale', father of 3 kids, humble tinkerer in my mancave.
Noob in most things. Learn along with me and follow the yellowed/bricked road.

I move bits around so that, in turn, they move some other bits around themselves.
