I write too much...
Hi there!
I don’t really keep nicknames, but I’m often known as weebi or hm on the internet.
Currently, I’m 21 years old, and living in Finland where I am currently studying networks and systems administration alongside cybersecurity, which are also things that I do in my free time.
I am fluent in Finnish and English, and I can also understand a bit of Swedish and Russian.
As for the systems: My desktop runs Void Linux paired with dual-booted Windows 10, and on my servers I prefer either Debian or Ubuntu, but have also used Alpine in the past.
It’s probably obvious by now, but my preferred work (and server) environment is also Linux.
It just works™, or at least usually does…
I am very familiar with Linux as an operating system and its structure, partly due to being used to recovering my own systems even when a full reinstall would’ve been faster and easier.
Refusing to simply reinstall the system immediately after breaking it is always a learning experience =)
My computer-related hobbies include self-hosting, hacking (CTFs in competitions/challenges), programming and game development.
My non-computer hobbies consists mostly of hiking, fishing, photography and radios. Keeping everything balanced =)
I’m also eager to learn more skills and to strengthen existing ones, so I’m always researching and learning new technologies, software, and systems!
