Me
+Career
+I am a network engineer and will not disclose specifics. I do a lot of LAN work and network architecture as opposed to the more usual help desk, service deployment, +or network maintenance.
+I do intend to switch fields of work and do cloud or network engineering for a different company within the future.
+Education
+I currently am in college for cloud and network engineering. My current certs include A+, ITIL 4, and LPI 010. However, I have 3 CompTIA certs in my degree and plan on getting +my CCNA, terraforge associate, and AWS SAA-C03.
+Experience
+Well obviously Hugo, Caddy, vps management, Linux, git, HTML, CSS, and SSH. That is everything I needed to make this website.
+However I do have a large list of skills and softwares, as well as a large base fundamental knowledge of how these tools work. I don’t care to list them all as it feels +pointless, however, you can see all of my (recent as of writing this) experiences I thought were notable on the blog page.
+My equipment
+Dell Optiplex 3060
+Specs: Intel I5-8500 | 16GB DDR4 RAM | 250GB NVMe | +4x1GiB NIC
+Current purpose: Running OPNsense in a ProxmoxVM. Firewall & router
+Main home server
+Specs: Ryzen 9-5900XT | 32GB DDR4 RAM | 2TB NVMe
+Current purpose: Hypervisor is Proxmox. Hosts adguard home for DNS a presistent IRC client.
+Personal PC
+Specs: Ryzen 9-9800X3D | 64GB DDR5 RAM | 2TB NVMe | RTX 3080
+Current purpose: Almost all of my personal computer needs, network management, SSH etc. I have Arch Linux with a lightly customized KDE Plasma & BTFRS subvolumes. I would +switch to ext4 but I tried something new when installing it and it surprisingly is stable so now I’m too lazy.
+Thinkpad T14s gen3
+Specs: Ryzen 7 PRO 6850U | 32GB DDR5 | 512GB NVME | 14" 1920x1200 | Debian 13.6 with Cinnamon DE.
+Currnet purpose: My main personal work, travel, and leisure laptop. I’ve never had a laptop I cared about, trusted, or valued, and this is finally that. Also it starts into +tty mode as I don’t need a DE for a lot of things.
+Laptop 2
+Specs: Some 11th gen I7 | 4050 | 16gb DDR4 | 512GB NVMe | Debian 13.6 Cinnamon
+Current purpose: Isolated windows laptop because my college requires it sometimes and I don’t dual boot or do VMs for windows.
+Laptop 3
+Specs: Im not entirely sure, I think 8th gen I5 & 8gb DDR4 ram + 512GB NVMe. Its a dell latitude 7480
+Current purpose: Just a burner laptop I reinstall a new OS on every time I find I need a laptop for a specific purpose. Usually for travel because it was cheap and I don’t +mind if it gets broken
+My ideology
+I dislike the amount of politics in software development currently. People hating good things because of the person that made it. I entirely beleive you seperate the +creation from the creator. That if someone does something bad you don’t make it worse by throwing away the good they have done. If you say “I don’t like X because it was +made by Y”, you’ve just stated you made your ability to objectively observe something benign in the pursuit of bias.
