I nerd about.. Hmm.. I quite enjoy learning to use Linux, teaching myself Esperanto, writing letters in Slowly.. Gardening and then cooking or storing what I have grown, like stashing potatoes in cellar or making juices and jams and then canning those. Picking berries and mushrooms.. Maybe those count too. And of course I do watch birds, both just through the windows with our cat but I also go hiking with binoculars. I collect some physical media, store my own music collection in MP3 form, play some games on PS3..

Right now I'm into crosswords and sudokus, bought me few magazines to play with while distro-hopping or just correcting my own mistakes.

Im an absolute Linux nerd. This ranges from how parts of the kernel work over bash and up to emacs and hyperland. I can literally talk hours on end about that kind of stuff.

Also since I started using emacs and Hyprland I became quite obsessed with improving my setup and keybindings, so that I can use my PC as efficient as possible.

Isn't the hyprland dev a fascist or something?

Edit: Transphobic behaviour on his discord, but has largely stayed out of the spotlight since I thing.

I was thinking of the Omarchy guy, DHH. The Hyprland guy allowed transphobia/bigotry on the official discord until he was called out.

Retro gaming! Which is (partly) especially great since it's all the rage now since current gen (aaa) gaming does everything to take consumer rights and piss fans off.

Also a massive win for indie gaming.

Anyhow, there are so many background stories, so many things that almost never happened, or even never happened. So many interesting things. So interesting details!

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E010OPY1Tzw - the EGM story
