Debian Maintainer | A Computer Nerd who also happens to be a Debian Packager.

I support free software and open standards. Outside of the computer world, I'm a STEM Major who likes inventing things.

I also port third-party software to FreeBSD. Also a mapper for OpenStreetMap.

I’m also a hobbyist graphic designers who mostly designs posters and media content for Debian India

Today I fixed all issues with python-markdownify for debian packaging. I learnt how to use help2man to create manpages and that's for sure gonna help me down the line for future packages.

@niyabits late to the stream again :P

@thej good doggo

When the senior students said college is gonna get incredibly hectic at the end, I didn't expect it'd be this bad.

I gotta deal with a research paper, thesis, presentation, projects, life chores, hobbies etc. all at once with almost no break.

I can only see it getting worse at this point.

@niyabits damn i guess im too late, missed the stream

These are some busy days indeed. I barely find any free time to work on anything. Totally busy with research work and academic stuff. This will likely be the case until mid 2027. Lots of work to do in a very limited amount of time.

Just uploaded a debian package to the archive -- python-pytooling

I turned on my Debian laptop almost a week after using only MacOS everyday and I was holding Super + Space on Debian to open spotlight search... oh wait.. I'm on Debian.

@werdahias I read the whole book when I was 10 and didn't understand a single thing.

Oops, I still have trouble reading things.....

As a human being you have the right to be able to understand the world. That is why education is so important.

Any technology that hinders your understanding (even if it seemingly gives you capabilities) is deeply in- and anti-humane.

Check out our new for this year's Asia 2026 @ ! @COSCUP

@MikeDunnAuthor Honestly I live in India and I didn't even know this happened. I don't think it got a wide media coverage here either. Of course it won't when almost all of the media is owned by the rulers.

@jessie I'm learning German 16 years after not picking up on any new languages. It sure does feel intimidating at first. I'm not sure how successful it'd be but I just keep going at it.

Four years ago we delivered free bus travel for everyone under the age of 22.

Now it's time to go further.

We're committing to deliver free bus travel for everyone in Scotland - on a bus network that has been brought back under public control. 🚌

Scottish Greens will deliver free bus travel for everyone. Vote Scottish Greens on 7 May.

Yet another experiment on myself but this time it's about learning German

I'm incredibly satisfied with the state of Proton and Linux gaming in general.

As expected, moving away from windows to mac + linux has done wonders so far.

Probably gonna write a blog post as soon as I recover from sickness.

@fbinin thanks

I definitely did a crap ton of college club work today and then came back to my room and worked on some ITPs and pushed a new update of python-vector to the Debian archive.

Safe to say, I'm a bit less stressed today than usual. I guess it really helps with that when you don't set deadlines for yourself.

I decided to completely ban caffeine and have strict limitations on refined sugar, to the point of almost never consuming it.

I went cold turkey on both of those last week and I cannot express how better I feel mentally and physically.

It's crazy how we have this poison so easily available. If I knew that caffeine is really this bad, I would've never had it in my life.
