  • man, but preferably BSD ones. They're terrific. It pays to get comfortable with the pager (man less), but for web rendering, https://man.openbsd.org/ is great. I don't know why these other man sites use monospace fonts, the language man pages are written in was literally made for quality typesetting!

  • Games and YouTube!

    In my 'office' room, I have an Xbox 360, Xbox One X, PlayStation 3, 4 and Wii U hooked up to an HDMI switch to one of my monitors. When not working I'll play games on that monitor, preferably something a little mindless or grindy like a racing game, platformer or Diablo, while half watching YouTube videos on the other. Digital Foundry, Practical Engineering, documentaries, that sort of stuff.

    That's for now at least, some other time I'll be into a programming project or something else.

  • The Scottish highlands! One of the places I love that's sadly (but understandably) not very accessible with public transport. I found the Scottish people friendly, fun and down to Earth, and the landscapes there are just breathtaking

  • I have an active social life but mostly around shared interests, eg book clubs, sports, some activism, etc. Classic friendships not so much, having drifted from childhood friends. Feels like we live in different worlds. My partner has taken that place.

  • Boring perhaps but loads of experiences that are impractical IRL:

    • Rally and circuit racing
    • Flying various aircraft
    • Explore non-Euclidian spaces
    • Combat sports
    • Perform cool roles in musical theatre
    • Unload a barge like in those viral videos
  • There are airplane and bus spotters too. I don't think it weird though, people geek out about all kind of things. Trains are cooler than cars anyway _
