Since there has been a huge burst of new activity out there, and everyone has been doing #introductions I guess I should (re)do a hashtag-laden #introduction of my own.

I am a mid-century modern weirdo from #YYC aka #Calgary #Alberta #Canada that runs https://coales.co Hometown/Mastodon site out of the garage in his back yard (the servers are literally bolted to the ceiling in there...told you I was weird)

Like a lot of people here I am a computer nerd who codes a lot of #Python and tinker with #microcontrollers and #OpenHardware and uses #Linux mostly. Professionally I do #IndustrialAutomation #SCADA stuff.

That said I often (sometimes mostly) post random and sometimes weird stuff. Occasionally political but put it behind content warnings. I am generally #AntiAuthoritarian and I dunno maybe #mutualist if I had to label it.

Also like weird #WatchParties like #Monsterdon and #WeAreNameless, and cute fuzzy animals (not like THAT jeez) and #ShitPosting and I'm occasionally a necromancer of old #Memes

So you know back when you were a kid there were those creepy guys with pagers that your mum said to stay away from that hung out at the school that pushed stuff that your mum said to never touch to the kids that your mum said would never amount to anything?

I think I've figured out where those creepy guys are now.

They are at cloud hosting companies selling S3 and S3 compatible object storage services.

I hope Elon watched this #Monsterdon you can't just fill space with garbage without consequences y'hear?!
