+ I'm Lynne. My interests include creating free software, playing story-driven games, photography, and writing. +

+

+ 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 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. +

+

+ 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. +

+

+ I don't really consider myself a hardcore gamer, but I do enjoy video games - usually those with a focus on + creativity or story. I've tried to make a few games before, but never completed any outside of short little minigames + and TI-84 calculator toys. I'd like to make a few small games of my own, and I'm really interested in one day making + mods for existing games to make them more accessible - lowering difficulty, removing epilepsy-triggering sequences, + removing potentially phobia-inducing elements, etc. {% comment %} FOOTNOTE - why do so many games have spiders!!!! {% endcomment %} +

+{% include h.html level=3 content="Some things I've made" %} +

+ 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'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. +

+{% include h.html level=2 content="What I use" %} +

+ All my computers and laptops run Linux, perhaps unsurprisingly. I mainly stick to + Arch and Debian. Every Android phone I've ever + owned (with the exception of my very first) ended + up running Cyanogenmod or + LineageOS at some point, usually soon after purchase. This includes my current + phone. +

+

+ I avoid proprietary and/or closed software wherever I can without hugely inconveniencing myself. The vast majority of + the software on my computer(s) is free and open source. I am strongly opposed to almost all forms of + DRM, and either avoid buying media with it, or + remove it after purchase. For example, I buy all of my music from Bandcamp and + download the OGG version of the albums. I do this for both + ideological/philosophical and practical reasons. +

+

+ I used to use social media (the Fediverse, specifically) a fair + amount, but I've since moved away from all forms of social media besides reddit (where I never post). +

+

+ Most of my programming is done in Python. I'm also somewhat familiar with + C# and + JavaScript, and I'm (slowly) learning + Rust. +
