I'm a sysadmin and this is my blog. Posts are added irregularly, and available over HTTP and Yggdrasil.

If you'd like to get in touch, you can send me an email at 3eb9e62bc375220a@piconet.co.uk. This address changes regularly to avoid webscraper spam.

My public projects can be found at https://git.piconet.co.uk

Posts I've written can be found below, starting with the most recent at the top. Below those posts you'll find weird little music and art things that I've done.
