Winner of Time Magazine "Person of the Year" 2006 and will never get tired of that joke.
I talk about #retrocomputing a lot. I also do a lot of #gardening and occasionally make #bread and #beer. I have been a Unix #sysadmin for about 30 years but I think I'll be OK.
I live in #Melbourne, #Australia and sometimes tell jokes on stages around here. I co-host a #StarTrek podcast with @ThePingMachine
Needed to drop my suit off for cleaning and some minor repairs, which meant I was in the right place at the right time to have lunch with the kiddo. I am now full of eggs and coffee. This is good.
I finished A Thing! A new power supply for my Amiga 500, but Mean Well did the hard part really. I probably spent the most time on picking out a fancy sleeve for the power cable so I didn't get have Another Black Wire on the desk.
Now comes the scary part where I actually plug it into an Amiga, even though I've checked the voltages are on the right pins many, many times.

I kind of want to go out and look at trains but I just don't think I can people today. The eternal struggle.
