Humanity's relationship to things is increasingly temporary.
This world of impermanence and disposability relies on thousands of options, fast pace change, and lack of time to make decisions .

I spend my time learning computing, electrical engineering, small engine repair/restoration, motorcycle restoration, and anything else that catches my attention. Most of this time allocated to computers, enterprise systems, years of hosting services/game services, troubleshooting for my own services/devices, troubleshooting for re-hosting services, troubleshooting for other people, etcetera.

In the past I mainly focused game hosting, re-hosting services, game moderation, community moderation, both small and large-scale (games 1-5000 daily players, communities with up to average engagement of 650,000 users a week) in various capacities, as well as general content moderation for various other purposes. A portion where I mined cryptocurrencies and did GPU modifications for that purpose, flashing GPU BIOSes, Vega modding, CoffeeTime modding LGA1151 with BGA chips. I now spend a large portion of that time on legacy systems, legacy enterprise systems, mainframe emulation, POWER systems, legacy system modifications & custom PCBs, as well as vintage system restoration. With a future goal of writing or producing educational content for legacy systems, or other various niche topics related that would otherwise likely be lost to time.

Currently my systems are operating in a clustered environment with AIX and RHEL, complete with SAN networking. This environment was originally created to learn the POWER environment, the Hardware Management Console, Operating System installations, VIOS installations, fail-over setups, overall my little isolated kingdom of perpetual re-installing and testing. My current intended goal is to have this environment host everything I may use day-to-day, and various other passion projects that can run on said hardware.

TSO is my main future focus for learning, along with other related legacy topics.
(shout out to @hs-tc for covering similar! they have good stuff on youtube!)

No, a large language model is not artificial intelligence, and nothing is 'AI powered', algorithms are not intelligent. This is more absurd than the amount of scare and props given for sites hit with javascript.

It is very unlikely to end up on my "friends" list.
I do converse on the topics above to those interested, and am generally open to helping if you have a problem you can't seem to fix or you feel is hopeless.
