Interests: Everything GNU/Linux related, Video Games, R, Python, Open Pandora & DragonBox Pyra, Raspberry Pi. Data analysis with R is for professional purposes while I also enjoy casual Python programming.

I started my computing life on the ORIC-1, followed by the C64 and of course, the beast that was the Amiga (best memories ever).
