Dave :unverified:'s Bio

Linux (devuan unstable)/Blackbox user, amateur genealogist, amateur software and electronics hacker.

Plays bass guitar, guitar, mandolin, ukulele for fun.

Originally from Lancashire, now living in Franken where there are far too many breweries to be good for my health.

If I boost a toot, it doesn't mean that I like it or even agree with it. It just means that I think it should be more widely known. I tend not to boost toots if there's an image without alt text.

See pinned toots for more.

Hobbies:
* Genealogy.
* Embedded s/w development (esp. operating systems).
* Little electronics projects.
* Playing bass guitar in a local hobby band.
* Cycling - just for fun.

Find me on codeberg. I'm on gitlab/github too, if you insist.

Before I retired my day job was designing embedded operating systems. Call me sad if you like but I think I was lucky to get paid for working on my hobby 😃

@ErikUden

Musk's reaction to Wikipedia calling it a Nazi salute is all you need to know.

If it had been an innocent mistake he would simply have apologised for it and moved on.
But no - he comes out with all guns blazing. "Defund Wikipedia" (ROFL)
