{% include h.html level=2 content="About me" %}- At some point I will write more here. -
- I'm Lynne. My interests include creating free software, writing about computers and other things, and spending time with my partners! + I'm Lynne. My interests include creating free software, playing story-driven games, photography, and writing.
- I write the Bune City Blog, which is mostly about computers, but occasionally goes into other topics. I also post on the Fediverse from my account, @lynnesbian@fedi.lynnesbian.space. + Most of what I do with computers is about helping people, whether that's through writing simple scripts to automate + things or writing software to make things more accessible.
- I provide a Searx instance here, which you can use to search the web for pages, images, files, and more. I also provide a few mirrors of small apt repositories. + I got into computers from a young age, and would spend more time playing around with the control panel on my parent's + Windows 2000 machine than actually playing games on it. I played a lot of LittleBigPlanet, trying to make complex + contraptions and logic machines to accomplish tasks within the game.
- My public PGP key is available here, hosted on Keybase. I have proven ownership of lynnesbian.space via DNS, so you can be sure it's really me. + While making games and tools was (and is) enjoyable to me, what I want to do most is create software that helps + people - I find it by far my greatest motivator. +
+{% include h.html level=3 content="Some examples" %} ++ I've made a lot of software to help my wife Petra, but much of it is too specific to her needs to be useful on a + greater scale, with perhaps a few exceptions, such as + Buypeeb, a simple program for tracking prices on Buyee + auctions.
- I live in Queensland, Australia, meaning that my timezone is AEST, or UTC+1000. Queensland does not observe daylight savings time. If it seems like I'm always up at weird hours, that's probably why. -
-- The Jekyll source directory used to build this site is available here, although I can't see anyone getting much use out of it. + I've also written some more widely applicable software, such as + OCRbot, a tool for automatically transcribing the text content of + image posts on the Fediverse, and bcao, a small script for + organising music from the .zip files provided by Bandcamp into the user's music directory.
