Rohan Kumar : He/Him : Age 20
Online Handle: Seirdy
This page also exists on the tildeverse, a bunch of *nix computers that let people sign up for shell accounts. A typical shell account features clients for IRC and email, common terminal/commandline utilities, and (most importantly) web hosting. My Tildeverse pages will serve as a "rough draft".
More info about the Tildeverse:
Currently living at home in Cupertino, CA
Would normally be in Portland, OR during the school year, but COVID-19 happened.
My handle is "Seirdy" on all the platforms I use:
My username is Seirdy on Reddit, Hacker News, and Lobsters; my nick is Seirdy on many IRC networks.
My preferred forge for personal projects is Sourcehut, but my repositories have remotes for GitHub and GitLab too.
I ought to come up with more interests than these, but that sounds hard.
The word "free" in "free software" refers to freedom, not price. I recommend looking it up if you aren't familiar.
I lean towards simplicity; I usually prefer CLIs that follow the UNIX philosophy over TUIs, and TUIs over GUIs. If a piece of software is complex enough to require a funding round, I would rather avoid it. There are exceptions, of course: I use a Linux distro with Systemd (Fedora), after all.
Some software I use: Fedora, Alpine Linux, SwayWM, Pandoc, mpv, mpd, Minetest, Neovim, tmux, newsboat, WeeChat, and zsh.
More information is available in my dotfiles repo; check its README.
I watch anime. Some of my favorites, in no particular order:
I've put together a periodically-updated list of tracks that I've rated 8/10 or higher in my mpd stickers database:
It's auto-generated by some of my mpd-scripts:
I'm a fan of glitch, trailer music, and symphonic and power metal; I've also recently been getting into Japanese rock thanks to a few anime openings. Some of my favorite artists are The Glitch Mob, Pretty Lights, Beats Antique, Hammerfall, Badflower, Celldweller/Scandroid, Helloween, Two Steps from Hell, Nightwish, Mili, and MYTH & ROID.
