       Re-#introduction?I really don't know what to say; I'm older than you think, I'm married, I've got a son. I love animals and currently have two naughty dogs (a rat terrier/pug and a rescue pug).I program (C, Python, whatever), I dabble in game dev (with Godot), I'm currently obsessed with Final Fantasy XIV.I read a lot of fantasy/horror/sci-fi and am picky about TV/movies but love terrible old horror movies.I prefer open source but am happy to pay for good things especially games.

       I'm trying to think of biz sectors that might be considered "ethical" and tech-adjacent (ie, they use a lot of tech), and I've only come up with a couple... any other ideas?* renewable energy* organic farming (maybe)* some non-profits?#ethicalbusiness #jobs #renewable #organic #nonprofit

       @misnina I use Thunderbird for email on my laptop, it’s got a good RSS reader built in that treats posts like emails.

       @frameworkcomputer @phoronix I love my FW16 and my wife loves her FW12. Shame we won’t be sending more money your way; I don’t want to support projects run by racists. Be better, like you promised you would be.

       @Le_bottin_des_jeux_linux Yeah 🙁 I was happily boosting and supporting them whenever I could, but not now.
