About me

I am a guy from the Czech Republic. I have many interests in life, among the biggest ones would probably be computer hardware and software. As my primary job, I work as a server failure assessment technician, but in my free time I do services for people, such as librebooting computers, building meshtastic nodes or 3D printing. In the past I'd probably consider myself a linux nerd, but now I'd consider myself just a linux user. I use gentoo btw.

Outside of technology, I'd say I'm to a degree interested in Orthodox Christian theology and philosophy.

I can libreboot your computer!

If you are interested in librebooting/corebooting your computer, you can contact me, and we can make a deal about a send-in librebooting service. I have flashers for both SOIC-8 and SOIC-16, so that encompasses most computers that can be librebooted. Note that it's probably easiest if you are from the EU or Europe in general, shipping from countries outside Europe may not be worth it due to the cost of shipping.

Services I host and/or use

This is a list of all services I use. Most are self-hosted and run on my server, all are free software.
