I regularly tell people "there was this forum once where one could discuss anything, THAT is what the internet was about." and am not on any form of social media thus lost touch with all of y'all (then again even "irl" I'm quite discreet and apt at losing touch). I was very pleased to find my old computer still had an active login for this forum which I wrote down.
Currently, I live with my partner for 13 years and we got an insane(ly) fluffy orange cat. Therefor I vacuum daily. I make a living making computers do things for others. I write audio plugins and instruments available to the public (also in code) and release music nobody listens to. I'm alright.
