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

I'm a hobbyist programmer. Outside of the computer world, I'm a STEM Major who likes inventing things.

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

Outside of geeky and nerdy stuff, I play a lot of video games, mostly single player ones.

Profile Picture is David Martinez from the Cyberpunk Edgerunners anime. Just a disclaimer, not really an anime fan.

@disaster2life As long as the noise isn’t too loud, playing a video game or opening my terminal on Linux usually does the job for me than blasting music

@werdahias I know of a black hole that traps LLMs when they attempt to scrape a site. Crafted with hate for LLMs by one of our DDs :)

@ravi the fact that nothing happened after this was revealed shows the current state of the country. I think it’s over for us

Book incoming!
I'm currently authoring a book which will be published in a few months if everything goes well! Big thanks to the Debian and Free Software Communities for getting me off the writer's block.

@disaster2life ill never get over why people have a problem with what we eat. Kind of infuriates me how some schools/colleges force vegetarianism onto people. I heard that one of the IIITs in MH fines people for eating meat and the folk over there are malnourished due to barely any protein intake. Prisoners get better food than college students.

@bagder I was banned from attending their events because I didn’t use a credit card for the payment towards it. We don’t get credit cards like candies in this part of the world as a student.

@werdahias yes I did the same. I still use GitHub to send patches upstream but all of my existing personal work and future work will only be on Codeberg. I’ve had enough with LLMs scraping my work.

Seems like I did a very good thing by ditching GitHub. GitHub is now under an AI team under Microsoft and no longer a separate entity. Would also recommend others to ditch GitHub if you care about your work getting scraped by useless LLMs

Some pictures from Hyderabad release party today.

@werdahias Interesting... not so long ago I had a research idea that I wanted to work on and it was about EMI. Figured it was way too much for a CompEng Student and left it lol

@werdahias electromagnetic induction?

Microsoft out, free software in
Thanks to the Debian community for making me realise that living a life with free software is very much doable.

Starting today, all of my future work will be hosted on Codeberg. Existing work that I deem useful will be migrated from Github to Codeberg and the rest will be archived.

Microsoft has been bullying me by blocking my accounts for the past 3 weeks due to me working with Debian and I will allow that no more!

@disaster2life the way things are going in the country right now, it’s probably a good idea to get the funding from outside the country for obvious reasons.

Wordpress Blog: TheDebMantra
My Wordpress blog is now live! I’ll be posting some Debian Packaging Guides as well as discuss about Free Software there!

@werdahias interesting… seems like I’ve gone down another rabbit hole…

A Debian trixie Release Party is being organized in Hyderabad, on 10th August.

Check https://wiki.debian.org/ReleasePartyTrixie/India/Hyderabad for more details!

@werdahias is this something like mastodon under the hood?
