Holy moly I just saw that on my new account they let me have up to 5000 characters for a single post.This seems like a really bad idea because it's just possible I will use them from time to time. 5000 characters isn't a toot, it's a character assassination!#Introduction #FirstPost #WhatIsMyLife #ADHD I'm a 55 year old white fella who survived childhood, got lucky in each of my careers and then married just the most wonderful woman in the world. Sometimes I feel super lucky, sometimes I feel super exhausted from just trying survive on this planet.I have some geek skills. I am curious about the human brain, and how we fail to make good use of it. I am definitely on the divergent side of neuro, with a life-long speech impediment + ADHD. I used to think I was broken, but now I know better. I am what I am.

Hey everyone! I'm back on Mastodon, reviving one of my three instances. This time, I set it up on a powerful VPS with Docker: 20Gbit bandwidth, unlimited S3 storage in Switzerland, BunnyCDN for global reach, DNS anycast for domains, and CEPH storage for my volume. Running it on my favorite Debian 13 Trixie, just released! The installer feels like a nostalgic trip back to Debian 4 Etch. Excited to be here again and share my tech adventures. #Introduction #Mastodon #Debian #Linux #Tech
