Carbon unit. Sometimes Photographer. Lover of retro technology. I've been on social networks since usenet and dial-up #BBS days, still run realitycheckBBS as a telnet BBS connecting to multiple fido-technology networks.

I access the fediverse through tilde.zone. It's part of the tildeverse, a community of servers where people write code, create web pages, Gopher and Gemini pages, and hang out on IRC. Party like it's 1999.

@sainati@types.pl @dan@discuss.systems @dev@discuss.systems I grabbed this photo from the internet around 2018, apparently some people would fill a flip chart with random business bro nonsense before leaving the conference room for the next unsuspecting meeting.

@cR0w@infosec.exchange I worked at a company that did single sign-on with crazy long passphrases. No password expiration. It worked well -- pick a passphrase from a book that you like and never have to remember a password.

@mattblaze@federate.social I am more of a street/candid photographer. I'm sure image stabilization helps my digital work but still love the effect of a fast prime lens opened up with a narrow DOF and a bit of motion blur.

@superflippy@mastodon.xyz @cwebber@social.coop @mlemweb@social.coop I would love to get one of those "cheese grater" Mac Pros working again with a modern OS. Those are beautiful pieces of tech!

@GustavinoBevilacqua @mattblaze reminds me of the person who put a party skeleton inside his wall during a remodel. Nothing like surprises for the next owners! All I got was a rusty razor blade sculpture about 2 feet tall, from the razor blade disposal slot in the bathroom I remodeled.

@SecureOwl@infosec.exchange And here I was thinking that the MFP would be the recipient of 00 buckshot.
