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.

@awai @werdahias @olasd @bremner The way I see it, the tech won't vanish forever but AI companies will see the end of themselves. The LLM technology is useful for certain tasks but not everything.

LLMs are being treated as a swiss army knife when they clearly can't be good at everything but unfortunately the marketing is way too strong and that's the thing that's not letting the bubble burst already.

@werdahias The masculine urge to send a reply to that email saying "Go fuck yourself, clanker" is irresistible.

@gwynnion The worse thing is even if people manage put their phones aside and go out, the other people wouldn't be interested in a person who doesn't use social media and would isolate you. It's a self fulfilling prophecy.

@TheEvilSkeleton time to spread some democracy together then ;)

@TheEvilSkeleton you play it too?

@TheEvilSkeleton meanwhile your average man holding a Springfield from the future, the game's helldivers 2 btw

@werdahias @rohini any that come to your mind? I used xcancel a lot but it's gone now

@rohini any alternatives that still exist?

Health & FOSS contributions

The past 2 months have been pretty tough for me because of my deteriorating health. I’m undergoing treatment but I’ve been very dysfunctional for a while. Can barely get my everyday tasks done.

I’m gonna take a break from FOSS contributions for a while to focus on my health. Might still do some work occasionally.

Also saw the Debian voting result and it doesn’t affect my stance about the project in any manner. I will continue my contributions when I feel better

Didn't know allergies make you very fatigued

re: mention of transphobia
@libreinator dunno. Those books were lying on the table when we came. Not sure whose books those were.

Debian Day Party in Hyderabad

@tragivictoria what are you making on the grill?

What I’m holding in my hands are actual physical games that I actually own.

Fuck you Sony.

I’m increasing my physical game purchases just because you decided to kill physical media. Cancelled all of my plans to buy the next Playstation and will be only getting Nintendo consoles because they still support physical games.

@tragivictoria @transcendentempress It's a real shame that we never got to see the KOTOR Remake that was cancelled a few years ago. I was really excited for it.

@TheEvilSkeleton Welp it's free to play but has paid cosmetics and is an old game from 2013.

I only played it for 12-13 hours and I felt like Destiny 2 is a better looter shooter game than warframe is because of its semi-open world design. Destiny 2 does have a problem with bloat and missing content though, something that warframe doesn't suffer from.

@sounddrill Tbh Mumbai is the only place in India that I actually felt like I belonged somewhere. I've only stayed there for 3 days but people were super accommodating and very friendly.

I never experienced that kinda welcoming nature and inclusiveness anywhere else in the country.

Took a while but Debian has a new GR to ban LLM contributions: https://www.debian.org/vote/2026/vote_002
