A readme file for Dylan Araps from 3 days ago saying “have taken up farming” and the github page for neofetch has also been archived. Good for him I guess.

    Woodworking is very popular among techies for a reason. As are playing music and climbing (bouldering)

      I’m an avid hiker personally

      Especially in the local wilderness where I don’t get cell reception

      It’s nice knowing that literally no matter how important somebody thinks their problem is they can’t reach me no matter how hard they try AND no matter how much my reflex is to check my email for “important” things that need taken care of I literally can’t check it.

        I am also an IT nerd that hikes as much as I can, when the weather permits. Too many of my local trails have decent reception so I have to just forget my phone exists for a while.

      This past weekend, I picked up a little wooden craft kit. All the pieces were pre-cut and I just had to glue and fit things together. I put it together yesterday and I can confirm, it was the most satisfying thing I’ve built in ages.

      Woodworking and rock climbing scratch the problem solving itch in different ways, on top of the creative (in woodworking) and physical exercise (rock climbing) itches common in most people.
