Un Dorian Gray sin pasado, ni patria ni bandera.
I’m just a guy in the #pnw who likes going on adventures, and playing games with friends.
Three things I love: the Oxford Comma, irony, and missed opportunities.

- Comment on YSK: listening to audiobooks and reading books both activate the same language related areas of the brain 4 days ago:
Others have said it, but definitely speed them up. I used to have the same complaint, but now I keep it at 1.25x and adjust from there.
- Comment on Self-hosting in 2025 isn't about privacy anymore - it's about building resistance infrastructure 1 week ago:
I know others have answered, but I wanted to give you a link. I have their device and it works great for turning things off and on out of the box. You can run it locally—if you have the hardware—or use their reasonably priced cloud subscription. I do the latter wanting to support them monetarily.
- Comment on Recommendation for Android File Manager 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, I started using them forever ago and haven’t looked back because it does exactly what I want it to. My only sad is that it isn’t open source.
- Comment on opencloud - I migrated from nextcloud. Screenshots and docker-compose-compose.yml included 2 months ago:
Can’t comment on the license, but I switched to it from NextCloud a few months ago and I’ve been generally very happy with it for where it is in the development process. It’s not perfect yet, but it’s also still earlyish.
- Comment on The Web is Going to Die 3 months ago:
Yeah, there is a lot of focus on getting your site out, but I just ignore all that part. I just wanted a nice place to self-host my travels without having to think much about it and it seems to fit that bill. But yeah, there is a place to discover other feeds and to comment on other people’s posts from the Fediverse and what not.

I jumped on Meshtastic but found it got too congested with noise in a medium-sized city making it difficult to get much out there. Switched to Meshcore and have had a much better time communicating. Seattle’s full on made it equivalent to SMS, which makes me jealous. But YMMV 🤷🏼♂️
- Comment on The Web is Going to Die 3 months ago:
I just spun up my own Ghost blog, being self-hosted and interacts with the Fediverse. Plus it’s pretty without me needing to know how.
- Comment on Why are fruits and berries healthy, even though they are mostly just sugar? 3 months ago:
My ex- decided to become a fruititarian, with hopes of becoming a breathitarian someday after reading about a yogi who allegedly had done so.
Emphasis on the ex-.
