About

The basics are on the front page, so I won't repeat those here :P

What I do (professionally)

I work a full-time backend support job at a company operating in the digital healthcare market, and am considering moving to the development team when getting paid to write bash scripts and the like stops being fun, but that time is not yet :D

I have a Bachelor's degree in computer science, and although I found the course interesting in unexpected ways and got a fairly interesting (if flawed) thesis out of it in, I have decided not to pursue academia further for the time being. If I do go back, it'll probably be for something unrelated.

What I do (for fun)

Oops more of the same - my interests centre around PCs and digital technology (unsurprisingly).
I've been daily-driving Linux On The Desktop since 2019, I played around with Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Fedora and OpenSUSE, but very quickly settled on Arch with KDE Plasma.

I started off thinking programming is cool, but networking is what has really fascinated me the longest; I started off on Windows and so have some experience with Microsoft Active Directory (which handled LDAP authentication in my network until 2023) and its associated services, though most of my knowledge centers around modern Linux.
Unsurprisingly I have a homelab - which after somewhat of a disaster has been re-rolled around Proxmox VE, with some Ansible sprinkled in there - but quite frankly I'm beginning to tire of the whole thing :´)

Other things I find fascinating (from a distance) include:

  • digital electronics — because software isn't painful enough
  • retrocomputing+demoscene — computing peaked before i was born tbhtbh
  • trains — being on them, talking about them
  • languages — mostly the germanic ones but i hope to change that

TODO #1: One of these days I'll get around to creating a projects page. For now, I guess you can look at my  Github profile.
TODO #2: Document my network setup somewhere
TODO #3: Expand on the retrocomputing stuff

Web

I own a few domains on which I self-host most of my stuff, including:

This website!

... is made with SvelteKit, built as a static site with Vite, and ultimately served up by Caddy.
The source code is public (presently unlicenced), at https://git.it-syndikat.org/deneb/leggy-website
