{% include h.html level=2 content="What I do" %}
<p>
I'm Lynne. My interests include creating free software, playing story-driven games, photography, and writing.
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
I don't really consider myself a <em>hardcore gamer</em>, 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 %}
</p>
{% include h.html level=3 content="Some things I've made" %}
<p>
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
<a href="https://git.bune.city/lynnesbian/buypeeb-cs">Buypeeb</a>, a simple program for tracking prices on Buyee
auctions.
</p>
<p>
I've also written some more widely applicable software, such as
<a href="https://github.com/Lynnesbian/OCRbot">OCRbot</a>, a tool for automatically transcribing the text content of
image posts on the Fediverse, and <a href="https://git.bune.city/lynnesbian/bcao">bcao</a>, a small script for
organising music from the .zip files provided by Bandcamp into the user's music directory.
</p>
{% include h.html level=2 content="What I use" %}
<p>
All my computers and laptops run Linux, perhaps unsurprisingly. I mainly stick to
<a href="https://archlinux.org">Arch</a> and <a href="https://debian.org">Debian</a>. Every Android phone I've ever
owned (with the exception of <a href="https://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_u8150_ideos-3513.php">my very first</a>) ended
up running <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CyanogenMod">Cyanogenmod</a> or
<a href="https://lineageos.org/">LineageOS</a> at some point, usually soon after purchase. This includes my current
phone.
</p>
<p>
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
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management">DRM</a>, and either avoid buying media with it, or
remove it after purchase. For example, I buy all of my music from <a href="https://bandcamp.com/">Bandcamp</a> and
download the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogg_Vorbis">OGG</a> version of the albums. I do this for both
ideological/philosophical and practical reasons.
</p>
<p>
I used to use social media (the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse">Fediverse</a>, specifically) a fair
amount, but I've since moved away from all forms of social media besides reddit (where I never post).
</p>
<p>
Most of my programming is done in <a href="https://python.org">Python</a>. I'm also somewhat familiar with
<a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/csharp">C#</a> and
<a href="https://wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript">JavaScript</a>, and I'm (slowly) learning
<a href="https://rust-lang.org/">Rust</a>.
