Man in its early forties who happens to be an engineer. 🧑‍💻

I spend my days working as a web developer and managing other engineers. I love technology and I think we should make it accessible to every person. As it is said: “If it is inaccessible to the poor, it is neither radical nor revolutionary.”

My main interests besides technology go into science-fiction, role-playing games, physics, video-games and occultism from an anthropologic point of view.

I can play the guitar and the ukulele

this account contains enclosed within an Account Of Events in the life of CASS¹ Dingenskirchen, librarian, «it» extraordinaire, aged ≥20 for the foreseeable future, operator of webbed sites, occasionally semiindeliberately inscrutable, «deranged online poster» and «the only person I respect here [editor’s note: not here]» (unverified claims by third parties)

expect stray thoughts, german (my apologies), tra[i]ns, my somewhat idiosyncratic taste in music that i increasingly suspect is me only liking one genre in particular whose name i am yet to find out, and carefully hidden in between all that distracting fluff of course the occasional crumb of pure realm-of-forms level of Posting, the Truth-and-Beauty that you came to this hell ’site in expectation of. [no warranty is implied.]

don’t hesitate to send a follow request, i just like clicking the accept thing. it makes me feel powerful.

my avatar is a drawing of a happy waffle, the header’s the default background «bliss» from windows xp.

I only look in here occasionally. Do not expect much interaction, for now I’m waiting out the “Freenode situation” over at Twttr. (OK, this turned out to be a lie. Apparently one has to follow people here early, because getting at posts of nōn-followees is a PITA.)
Languages: de-DE-1901, en-DE, some la, and I might understand some nl, es or similar.

When moving instances, do notify me first, otherwise I can’t follow you on your new instance (yet). My instance runs experimental software.

Mostly interested in cats. Also, good coffee☕, garlic, cats, nature, European paganism, IT (but not those new-fangled hypes; I like my Korn Shell, Assembly, used to like C; I run VMs, not (never!) containers; I hate the way people try to force systemd upon other people and avoid it and other plagues), cats, music (baroque was the peak of all music, it went downhill from there: Beethoven and Mozart were the beginning of that; love John Rutter’s though, and Nightwish/Tarja…), cats, books, good fanfiction… oh, and, did I mention? Cats! I also dare to sing and dabble a bit in #TeamRecorder, and I go geocaching, opencaching, terracaching, … and occasionally play Munzee.
Dogs and SJWs are not welcome. I don’t come here for deep social discussions or something, so don’t bother me with these. Nor with shudder… politics. And I’ll refuse follows from people who endorse ML (so-called “AI”) and/or content output by them.

My feed will include RSS posts from other activity feeds of mine (posted via daily cronjob, not in real time, so their post timestamp is irrelevant) as well as RTs and no CWs. RTs are not my own content and belong to the original poster. I often RT posts I do not understand, e.g. in foreign languages, just because the picture is nice or something.

I run my own single-user (so far, but I might admit personal acquaintances if they really want) instance of GtS so some tech trouble may be expected. No custom “emoji” (really, colon-magic-strings, which I loathed on other platforms already), but longer posts.

I’m personnel to Čara🐈‍⬛ (a rescue cat, FIP carrier and FIV+ but so lovely). Black cats are the best! (Though she’s got white socks and bikini.)
