@soatok Hi, I'm uvok. Member of the furry fandom since I don't know when.
I'm #firmware developer to earn my living. As a consequence, I "kinda lost my passion" for programming in my free time, or I just lack the energy? Not sure which it is. ("I studied electrical engineering, I have to have electronic projects!!!" is a weird pressure I put onto myself for a while).
Took interest in computer networking a while ago and decided to run an Autonomous System. Now it just runs itself. Still not sure what to do with it. Maybe I'm gonna put it on my CV?
I occasionally blog. Mostly about technical/computer subjects.
I started to play #guitar in 2019, took private lessons until my teacher moved one or two years ago. Haven't looked for another one yet, putting it off constantly. I noodle around occasionally and look for sheet music. I play in a group/"an ensemble" with flutists, though!
I love being outside, walking or bicycling, a few days ago I bought a pedelec which I already tested. It's fun. I like to read, technical subjects, or fantasy.
I occasionally pick up a not-exactly-hobby / learning subject, do it for some time, and then lose interest again.
Looking for "meaning" in my life, I help counting votes at elections, am member of a employee organization at my employer, and (occasionally) help at furry conventions (so far in the kitchen and at the front desk).
Usually too shy to approach other people, as a consequence probably missing out a lot of fruitful connections.
We’ve just released a new firmware update "25.05", and we’re pretty excited about it! This one includes some key improvements, better performance, increased stability, and a few behind-the-scenes tweaks that make everything run smoother.
