Hello Universe!

Moved to new server.

Re-introduction - Been on here since 2022 and should write an intro again. I'm deaf, I'm a fan of open-source projects, so this will be short and sweet.

Post random ramblings, news, techie stuff, boost mostly cat pics. I just like computers and hang around here.
