Christian Kent's Bio

Go to ckent@urbanists.social for anything non-tech or political, including infrastructure, solar & selling power, roads, transit, cycling … even maps, even really geeky maps with Wikipedia 'bahnstrecke' diagrams

This will be my forum for IT security and reliability, high tech and high science … but also retro tech, old Apple stuff … no really old … no, older than that. It's helpful for each audience to have these accounts separated.
