#introductions

I'm Nat, or icco. I've been building software since the early 2000s. I love building cli and web tools, and spend a lot of time #datahoarding. I try to do everything in the open, so all of my personal code in FOSS, and most of my thoughts are public on subdomains of https://natwelch.com.

When I'm not writing code, I like hiking, fly fishing, reading, writing, and listening to and making music.


with the recent #TwitterMigration, now is a time for a new introduction post

i was born in northern Norway in 1983 and currently live in #Oslo with my cat Blizzard.

i'm a tech by trade, but i don't like it very much, so i do other things like cooking, music and photography to relax.

since 2017, i've also been compulsively maintaining an addiction to this place, of course... 💀

#introductions

I design software and hardware systems. I've worked on orbital launch vehicles and satellites. I can talk about "space stuff" all day. I design sub-sea ROV systems for fun.

One day hacking on gateware, the next a byte-code interpreter, the next a PCB, the next a Linux kernel driver, etc. I wrote game engines for a time.

I'm recurrently obsessed with artificial general intelligence (Goertzel-like formulations), artificial life, computational behavior (not ML).


I've been trying to send a welcome message to every new user by hand... but it's hard with so many new people joining us!

hi, I am packetcat! I have been on the fediverse since 2017. I usually post about music, books, video games, technology, and every day life stuff.

if you need more details about who I am, go check out my website which is sadiqsaif.com.

this is my personal account so before you send a follow request, please make sure you at least have a profile picture, bio and some posts so I have an idea of who you are.

Here's a list of types of people I have encountered on here:

-fascists
-fascistoids
-racists
-ableists
-misogynists
-haters of queer people
-capitalists
-cryptocurrency shills
-people who think there are good nation states
-so-called "minor-attracted persons"
-bullies

If you're on this list, I would like to invite you to kindly fuck off.
If you like making excuses for any type of people on this list, I would also like to invite you to kindly fuck off.
These are my boundaries and if they make you mad, I would, again, like to invite you to kindly fuck off.

However, if you're the type of person who also wants the people on this list to fuck off, then you and I are very likely to become friends!

Hi everyone. Here's my new #Introductions / #Introduction post

I'm Schratze. I'm an agender person in my late 20s from Germany. I'm just about to finish my master's degree in linguistics and then become a full time ogre and live in the swamp.

I'm an intersectional anarchist. I play bass in a heavy rock band called Descentury. Check it out

https://descentury.jimdosite.com/

In addition to all that, I post about music, birds, computers, mental health, video games and other random garbage.

I have ADHD and a bunch of issues. I'm on the aromantic spectrum. I'm not interested in flirting on here. All other interactions are welcome.

Feel free to send me a follow request. I will always follow back. However, if you have no avatar, no bio, no posts and don't even bother to @ me, I have to assume that you're a cop.


So, people are apparently doing #introductions again!

I'm Kim! I'm a 50-year-old trans, polyam (dance card full), pan, fat, mixed-race, allosexual, atheist, nerdy woman.

I make electronic music and a huge amount of my attention goes to perceiving and enjoying music.

I write, and love literature. And I game heavily (video, board, TTRPG) and stream video games.

Almost all arts fascinate me and I dabble. I love installation and modern art, and love galleries. I love retro tech. I love loving.


#introductions/#reintroductions

👋 I'm Ruth, a #librarian at Penn State. I work on our library's catalog, which means I come across all kinds of fun, terrible data issues that I enjoy sharing. I care deeply about #labor issues in libraries.

I'm a #quilter, I write sometimes for RPGs, and I do other sewing/gardening as I can find time.

I'm disabled but not likely to talk specifics on here.

I have a small elderly terrier mix named Sterling.

I'm impossible to represent in 500 characters.

Alright, time for a re-#introduction!

I'm Courtney! I live in the US, I'm a UX engineer, I enjoy video games (and not always Stardew Valley!), I'm a wife & mom, and I'm trans.

I'm here to find new friends, discover interesting stuff, maybe vent about life's challenges a bit, and show off anything cool I create 😊

#introductions


I'm late to the #introductions, but here it goes. I'm 30, she/her, from #Germany. I work as a environmental scientist at a university, pursuing a PhD degree. I need some #python #programming skills to do that.
I'm fairly into #crafts, especially #fiberarts like #knitting and #sewing.
I enjoy #boardgames a lot, I also started playing #shadowrun about a year ago.
#games like #citiesskylines or #civilization5 have quite a few hours on my steam account.
Plus: Trying to improve my #french ;)


#Introductions

Hi, I'm Ada (pronounced "Ayy-duh"). Decided to make a second account here since I've heard good things about this place. Sometimes I draw and take pictures, sometimes I post them, but mostly I'll just be posting whatever is in my head at the moment. I enjoy reading when I have the time (Jenny Lawson is my favorite author) and listening to the same musical artists over and over until I get sick of them. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!!


Ok!! I've worked up the courage... it's time for #introductions !

I'm Erin! I draw as a hobby mostly but I wanna work up to doing sequential art and big illustrations! Mostly Sci-fi stuff and photo studies (I like myself some robots) Sadly not many new things have been finished, so here's some old and new art mixed together! 💕

Hello, kolektiva! I recently moved here from todon.eu & changed my pronouns, so thought I might re-introduce myself #intro #introduction #introductions

I'm Carlina (she/they), a bisexual abolitionist and ecosocialist living outside of Chicago. I work in immigration legal defense and also coordinate a Spanish-language penpal program with detained migrants and non-detained folks. I love learning about the Black radical tradition & am currently studying Portuguese


Hi all, I'm new so here's my #introduction/ #introductions.

I'm a 26 year old #artist who specializes in digital #art and #illustration. I like drawing weird plants and environments. I tend to spend hours painting the same details over and over again with tiny brushes.

The creative world can be pretty tough so I'm looking forward to hanging out with you all and helping each other survive/grow.

Sorry about the redraft, I noticed a sentence error and it bothered me.


Time for #introductions, once again.

Hi !

I'm l4p1n, pronounced "lapin". I'm a saber-toothed wolf-dragon that happens to do system administration and a bit of coding as a hobby.

You can expect some stuff about what I do, some thoughts here and there, sprinkled with some fluffiness.

Howdy I'm Robbie! A macro drolf just being himself. No worries I'm a big kind fella eheh

I'm an artist attempting to learn more to improve my artwork.
Probably be see me post what I can here as I do over on my twitter: https://twitter.com/Cryptic_Canid

But hey good to meet y'all~


So, I guess we are doing #introductions... I'm me. I teach. I learn. I dye my hair. I procrastinate. I game. I wallow in despair at NZ literacy levels.


Hi friends, I’m Josh. I’m a software engineer and Ruby developer at heart. I love open source and the open web and currently build tools for developers at a company that I cofounded. My Mastodon claim to fame is that I made the little keyboard shortcuts legend that you see when you type ?.

I love books and consider myself a lifelong learner. At this moment, I’m particularly concerned about information literacy, online disinformation and conspiracy theories, and violent extremism. I’m actively studying and exploring constructive solutions to those issues in my spare time.

My favorite things are books, computers, photography, and musical instruments (piano and bass mainly). My favorite people are my family, friends, colleagues, and you (you there, behind the screen).

#introductions

I just read Edward Snowden's memoir and other books about mass collection of our data. Since then I have been trying to shed the private/proprietary software I had been using in favor of their transparent/open source alternatives.
