h2 Me
|
||
p #[span.highlighted Who am I?] My name is Alexander Andreev. I'm a russian guy of age 30 who likes tinkering with computers.
|
||
p #[span.highlighted Why am I doing all of this?] Machines are up 24/7 anyway, so let they do some useful work.
|
||
p #[span.highlighted Why am I almost “doxxing” myself?] Yes, my real first and last names, and age are here, and since I self-host you can get my city as well. And I simply don't see this as a problem. :|
|
||
p #[span.highlighted Why particularly that slogan?] I just wanted sort of a slogan that would fit under the logo and this was the first thing came on mind. I actually like it. Don't you think of your websites as of very special place of your own? Of course you do. :) And who we are if not the wanderers who are looking for something in the vastness of Intenet? xD And yes, it's a pain in the ass to make it fit under logo across different browsers. That was the moment when I found out that different browsers render text differently.
|
||
p #[span.highlighted Why English only?] I want this place to be accessible for a wide audience, and English happen to be todays lingua franca. Second, to practice English. And third, I'm lazy to maintain two versions of the website, neither see a good reason for that.
|
||
p Contact information and banners are #[a(href='#contacts') at the bottom of this page]. Yes, I totally agree with you not wanting to add my banner since I don't have a link page myself, neither participate in any webring. :) Well, it's way easier to make a banner than a links page. :)

h3 What I know
|
||
h4 Human languages
|
||
p #[span.highlighted English] is my main foreign language and I think that I know it quite well, but every time I reread what I wrote here I constantly catch cringe vibes. xD I have a nice pronunciation (my teacher once said so :)) and tend to British non-rhotic variant. Of course I end up with a mix of all the flavours of different dialects. What I struggle from is a lack of speaking practice and vocabulary is also still a problem.
|
||
p #[span.highlighted Ukrainian (Українська)] is a special case. :) Russian and ukrainian are related languages, so mutually understandable (must be), yet many russians are struggling to understand it, and I don't know why. It is just a matter of putting some little effort to negatiate it. I never learnt it, aside from reading it here and there, and looking up some words in a dictionary, and especially throughout past #[s 8]9 years I saw enough material to learn it to a decent level of understanding and some speaking.
|
||
p Агась, нiколи спецiйно не вчив українську, користував перекладач тiльки як словник, за цi #[s вiсiм] вже дев'ять рокiв було досить матерiалiв. :) P.S.: Слава Українi у складi Росiї! :)
|
||
p I like learning languages, but me being a lazy fuck won't let me learn something up to a reasonable level. I ended up with being able to +- read some languages, like norwegian, german, polish, french, japanese (hiragana + some yet not forgotten kanji). So, now I main only English.
|
||
h4 Computer languages
|
||
p #[span.highlighted For programming and scripting:] Python, Go, JavaScript, and Bash for now are most used by me. Later I used or tasted: Pascal, Delphi, C#, C, C++, Java, PHP. And wrote hello worlds in some others like LISP and Haskell.
|
||
p #[span.highlighted Markup and declarative:] SQL (SQLite3, MariaDB), HTML5, CSS3, LaTeX, Markdown, XML, and JSON.
|
||
p And I don't know what else to put here. :^)

|
||
p These lists aren't complete, will extend when remember or find something.
|
||
p I actually don't watch much, and if I watch I go for a marathon, and if only I take a break in the middle of a show, then that break could last for years. xD And if I download some film it could sit for years, as it was with Valhalla Rising, it was waiting for me to watch for 3 fucking years. xD Oh, what made me to watch it? An one and a half hour long power outage. xD
|
||
p I found my way of watching films and anime. Watching it with my favorite streamers! xD

p I have two of them, the first one is a #[a(href='https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-3-model-b/' rel='nofollow noreferrer') Raspberry Pi 3 rev. B] single board computer and the second one is a laptop. Yeah, not quite impressive, but they do their work just fine.
|
||
p Laptop is Acer Packard Bell TE69CX that has a 2 core Intel Pentium 2117U 1.8GHz and 10GB RAM (2GB + 8GB), the system disk is a 120GB SSD and the other one is 2TB HDD where all the shit I have is stored. I've replaced my good old 500GB disk with 2TB one, since it became a little too tight, now it is a system disk for Raspberry Pi. Everything that have just a bit of importantance to me is backed up, encrypted and stored in the clouds. :)
|
||
p #[span.highlighted TL;DR about services.] Laptop runs BIND9 via DNSCrypt-proxy (master), a network file share, a public file upload service, a seedbox, a HTTP public file share, TeamSpeak 3, Mumble, I2P, an internet-radio, git server, ClamAV for email server, a web-server, and a database. Raspberry Pi 3 runs BIND9 via DNSCrypt-proxy (slave), #[s a Tor relay], an email server, and a XMPP server.

|
||
p This project grew from MPD I used to stream music over LAN for myself. Then I let it out and placed a player on my Neocities website. Then Icecast was added to see if there are listeners. I wasn't happy on how MPD was nearly overloading CPU, and later, after moving the radio off to a laptop, MPD was replaced by Liquidsoap.
