#introduction time! I'm an #engineer living in the Netherlands with my wife, dog, and cat. We all have fandom names if you count the #shakespeare fandom.

I'm into #sff and #videogames, like: #botw #oot #pokemon #oldkingdom #spiritwalker #nkjemisin #asimov #murderbot #startrek

I also like #hiking and soft #adventure, especially the #grandcanyon and #geocaching.

I guess I'm here because because #snails.

WHY does a python program running in the background via task scheduler take up 50% CPU???? you're making it very difficult to run my server, Mr Gates

windows: when your program works great until you try it through task scheduler ™

fast forward to now. over a decade later and on the other side of the world, I'm eating at the mall. I hear a familiar come singing on the speakers. it's them.

this must happen to more people, with more famous people. but nothing shocks you quite like one of your very-past lives coming for you over your haloumi wrap.

one upon a time, I was a freshman at a big university in California. I wanted to keep up with my singing, so I joined the jazz choir and made some friends. but I was miserable and went back to the east coast. I kept up with some of my jazz choir friends on Facebook, saw posts about a band they started, bit ended up losing touch when I deleted Facebook.

welcome to 2020. alive? yes. new calendar? great stuff. january? cancelled

like this, but with swords?

last night at DnD, we got our bb drow (he's up from the underground for the first time!) sunglasses and a sunhat. he proceeded to forget about it, which means it's canon that he destroyed massive suits of armor with his dual weilded blades looking like Bob Belcher in his garden.

also fun: the HTTP error code 418, "I'm a teapot" (as opposed to a coffee maker). it was a joke that went too far, people fell in love with it, and when threatened with removal, fought to keep it. 418 is still an official HTTP error code.
