About
=====

My name is Ruari Oedegaard and I generally enjoy 'simple' things
(from an engineering perspective), and attempt to follow a so called
'slow' life style. 

* I carry a basic mobile phone (not a smart phone)

* I run Slackware Linux (with no dependency management and a
  package manager written as shell scripts)

* I commute via unicycle, footbike, Halfbike or penny farthing (and I 
  do not own a car)

In my professional life, I work as a QA for the Vivaldi web browser.

This site is primarily a reposting of selected articles from my 
Gemini space. In part as a test, so that I can play around with 
Gopher. 

[i] My Phlog entries are generally reformatted versions of articles 
I write on my Gemlog.
