So I should re #introduce myself; used to host my own instance at artemai when that was a thing; decided to get back on Mastodon again because the rest of social is a dumpsterfire.

I'm a #UNIX sysadm originally (from the late 90s) but started using #Linux in 91, bringing early dialup internet to #Newcastle with community group hunter #apana.

I'm a #coder, #python is the go-to language these days, some #js but plenty of #C and some #golang too.

Ten years ago I landed in #liveevents and #visionswitch / #camera #direct #sports presentation in major #stadiums along with building software for data-driven #content for use in those environments.

I'm a #ham radio operator. Callsign VK2WAY. I'm mostly interested in signals processing and digital communications.

I used to officiate #RollerDerby but have streamed it since 2014 as Downunder Derby TV. I still manage socials for and help co-ordinate Queer Roller Derby - @queerderby.

I'm #queer #pansexual #poly #nonbinary and use they/them pronouns.

Hey there !

I'm an independent graphic designer & web developer. Tinkering with tools made for the web, crafted by other persons is my main activity. I like to experiment these tools in challenging systems. Also, I like to bring unconventional user experiences in most of my productions, if it's possible and conceivable. I'm sensitive to FLOSS, and I try to contribute to open-source projects when I can, on my small scale.

Internet and software cultures have been central to my personal activities since I'm about 10 yo, playing from times to times video-games with some friends. I also like to tinker with software or hardware (arduino, raspi) to reach, sometimes, a specific goal or just for experimenting forms and/or interactions forms.

Since, 2–3 years, musical composing became a hobby. I didn't succeed yet to break free from standard existing musical tools (like DAWs) and instruments, but I'd like to ! For more than a year now, I'm part of an independent french Rap group.

On my free time, I tend to develop things like video-game development and permacomputing.

As I am also building a community of #philosophers and #academics here, I wanted to #introduce myself.

I hold a #PhD in #Philosophy, although I left #academia to focus on my artistic work. I believe there is still a lot of philosophical inquiry in my #photography.

I am particularly interested in the presence of the #mythological and the #symbolic in reality.

If I have to #introduce myself on a dating app, I say I’m an adult content creator or a professional villain.

When I want to appear “normal”, I introduce myself as an #art manager, or an event producer, or simply as an artist.

Very often, I say that I’m a former #marketing strategist and project manager who now only accepts to sell art or #sex.

For those who want to fuck my artists without my permission, I’m a #pimp. A hardcore pimp, with lawyers and thugs on my side.

For kind weirdos, #queers and all kinds of perverts I preach self love and #acceptance. Hope for a change. Confidence. Power to be whoever the fuck you want.

Sometimes I simply #perform and entertain. Sometimes I also just survive and #fight.

Honestly? I have so many roles and characters that I can lose myself. Then I hire professionals.

In this case, Vika Temnova is 1000%. Read more: https://sicut-dico.com/2024/07/13/sicut-dico-by-vika-temnova/

Allow me to #introduce myself.
I have been working in tech for some 13 years now, the last 11 of which have been in information security. I enjoy and practice honest, transparent and accessible security. I also enjoy gaming regularly with my wife. Presently we have a campaign going on Baulders Gate 3. Aside from tech I love to cook and travel.

Best I #introduce myself here on this server. I'll mostly be posting #ttrpg stuff, but who knows! Anyway, about me: he/him, former #englishliterature geek with lots of interests, including #ttrpgs #photography #drawing #makingmusic #painting #boardgames #writing I dig #science too. Known to enjoy #philosophy. I'm a #counselling student also. So, I have a humanities background, but I like learning all kinds of stuff. Not awesome at maths or tooting my own trumpet! #introduction #introductions

Greetings to everyone at the retro pizza parlor. As Mick Jagger likes to sing, "Please allow me to #introduce myself…"

I'm the #author / #illustrator of a #TTRPG (tabletop role-playing game) who enjoys posting the odd pencil #sketch, #ink outline, or full #color #illustration of what eventually became #art for the game —plus a few things that never made it in.

I also like to share whatever #book, #podcast, or #art is currently filling me with #RPG #inspiration.

Howdy folks! I'm new to these parts so allow me to #introduce myself!

I'm an industrial engineer with a background in chemistry and manufacturing. I live in beautiful Central New York (that's the mostly farmland region north of the Big Apple), specifically #Syracuse. I love gardening and ambient music, plus I've been a tabletop roleplaying game GM for over a decade.

I'm looking to keep up to date on the global fights against climate change, corruption, and socioeconomic inequality, as well as to hopefully contribute in any way I can.

Catch y'all around!

Hi,

As I finally have an official #trans diagnosis after so many yeaars, I guess I'll have to #introduce myself again as the true me.

My name is Ellie (or Målingen).
I'm still very geeky, like boardgames and everything I was before. But I think it is time the world learnt the name I've had for myself for so many years.

Hello world .

I'm exploring Mastodon for a few days now, so I guess it's time to #introduce myself.

Currently I'm studying CS at UNI of Ljubljana in Slovenia.

Because UNI is not gonna teach me much, I'm running a #homelab with my HP DL380p and programming some side projects with #vuejs and #nodejs.

Once in a while I want to touch some grass and my favourite sport to do so are #taborniki (scouts).

Mastodon looks great, I can't wait to see more people using it or fediverse in general.

#JoeMorris Is Putting the #Black #Queer #Community #First, One #Event at at Time

Hello #Astrodon folks! I wanted to #introduce myself. This is a #SciComm account for the Solar eruptioN Integral Field Spectrograph group. We're building a new instrument to study the sun! It'll help our understanding of #SolarPhysics, #StellarPhysics, #SpaceWeather, and #AerospaceEngineering.
If you'd like to learn more about the #Sun, the #SolarCorona, or the #Chromosphere, give us a follow!
