I talk about #retrocomputing a lot, especially #Commodore64 stuff. I also do a lot of #gardening and am trying to make good #bread and #beer. I was a professional Unix #sysadmin for nearly 25 years.
I live in #Melbourne, #Australia and sometimes tell jokes on stages around here.
Went outside to snap a few photos of the moon, and wow it looked pretty clear, but the amount of haze was huge.
I really need to make some time to go out into the middle of nowhere with a bag of camera bits.
