About

I'm a cis-male and use the he/him pronoun set.

First used Live-CD Linux (Knoppix) in 2005. Switched to Linux full-time (abandoning Windows) in May 2013 with MEPIS 11 (Debian/KDE based) and antiX (Debian/Slim) on the older machines. Currently running Kubuntu 20.04.5 on AMD FX8350 8 core 4.1 GHz 32 GB desktop (nVidia GTx 1650 w/ 4 GB), and Ubuntu MATE 16.04 64-bit on the Lenovo Thinkpad T430 (Core i5 3.4 GHz, 8 GB) (yes, I know it's well overdue for an upgrade).
