IMPORTANT: If you are reading my profile and checking my old comments, please do not upvote them!

I use the karma indicator as a cheap way to detect replies to comments and this mess up this simple heuristic.

Conversely, if we are talking and you would like to engage in a discussion, just upvote! (or downvote, whatever!) This will catch my attention and make me check what you wrote.

ABOUT ME: I'm a command line geek with an interest in Arch, Windows, Sixels, ZFS and KVM!

I like new things, even those you may believe are "against the natural of things":

“I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies: 1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. 2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. 3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.”

― Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt
