I have been involved in IT since the 1960s. A health crises brought that to an end in the 1990s. Now fully retired I produce and present radio shows which I provide free of charge for radio/web stations around the world. Main interest is the music of the 20th century. Also keen on old movies I find on You Tube. Love to read anything from cereal boxes to books.
I have been using #linux as a desktop since 1999. Started with #debian then #ubuntu now using #linuxmint and some #raspberrypi servers.

Kia ora! I'm a #nature nut, addict of #iNaturalist NZ — Mātaki Taiao, and an #ecologist at #LincolnUniversity in #Aotearoa-#NewZealand.

I spend an inordinate amount of my time counting nature to watch what's changing (see https://wildcounts.org/).

In a previous BirdSite life I was a disillusioned AI fridge, but here I'm an altogether quieter, more helpful appliance.

IRL I'm a retired filmmaker who lives in the front line of climate change... on a New Zealand beach at sea level.

I'm enjoying the peaceful atmosphere here. People are nicer.

No DMs. Visual/auditory artist. Likes VST plugins, hifi, evidence, dogs. Former healthcarer.
A UK born Kiwi. Aware billionaires use their social media/TV/papers/religion to scapegoat immigrants/minorities to extract/hoard more from publics.
Nature IS variation. If your belief system can't accept that, it is weakened by inability to adapt to natural reality. Thus I'm pro LGBTQI+ - interested in people, not labels. I actualise caring by not eating products from anything with its own pulse.

@nigel@snac.lowkey.party

People suck, and I hate social media.
So naturally I spun up my very own social media instance.

I probably won't use this much except for bitching about the builders on my house.
Well.. I guess there's some things I might post about: #MTB #Biking #DIY #HomeRenovation #Forklifts #Linux #snac
Every couple of years I drag out my #Guitar and try to play something, but yearn for a #Bass for some reason.

For my #photography see @swansinflight but some might still end up here.
