About p1r0j

Hey, I'm p1r0j and this is my site.

I'm a disabled U.S. Army combat veteran. Well, that's who I was anyhow. These days I'm a husband, father, and cat dad living abroad in Bangkok, Thailand. Professionally, I'm a Linux systems administrator, developer, and creative writer with a Master of Science in Cybersecurity. I care deeply about climate action, digital rights, and wealth equality.

I self-host the following services, all running on openSUSE Leap, hosted in the EU, and powered by 100% green energy:

• This website
• Prosody IM (Chat)
• Nextcloud (Cloud)
• Stalwart Mail (Email)

All my work is open source and can be viewed on Codeberg.

You can find the following suite of tools on my workstation:

• openSUSE Tumbleweed (OS)
• Sway WM (DE)
• Firefox (Browser)
• Foot (Terminal)
• Gajim (Chat)
• GnuCash (Accounting)
• KeePassXC (Passwords)
• Nextcloud (Cloud)
• RetroArch (Emulation)
• Thunderbird (Email)
• Vim (IDE / Editor)

On my mobile, you can find the following:

• /e/OS (OS)
• Lawnchair (Launcher)
• 2FAS Auth (2FA)
• AntennaPod (Podcasts)
• Cake Wallet (Wallet)
• CoMaps (GPS)
• Conversations (Chat)
• FairEmail (Email)
• Firefox (Browser)
• KOReader (Ebooks)
• LibriVox (Audiobooks)
• Mastodon (Social)
• Nextcloud (Cloud)
• RetroArch (Emulation)
• Termux (SSH)

You might have noticed that I make every effort to avoid proprietary software altogether. While you will indeed find non-FOSS applications on my phone, I only use them when absolutely necessary and will not advertise them here.

You can learn more about me by perusing my social platform (Mastodon) or my blog (coming soon).
