Hello, World!

I am Orangerot. I am a computer science student living in
C:\Milkyway\Earthy\Europe\Germany (yes we live in a simulation run on M$
WinShit, get over it. How else did you think this reality got so messed up? Well
SysAdm has still hope the simulation stabilises, lets pray for the best before
it's shut down). I am a open source and free software enthusiast, care about
privacy and repairable technology.

Here I rant about technology and show of my projects. I always have a long list
of ideas but too little time (and I am bad with time management). 

You can find my projects on 
- https://source.orangerot.dev
- https://github.com/Geronymos
- https://gitlab.com/Orangerot

Other publications you can find in 
- /article 
- /archive

For now you can contact me on https://matrix.to/#/@orangerot:matrix.org 
Or IRL if you are nice enough. /aluhut.html

Personal Information /ich_iel 
================================================================================

I like cyberpunk, synth wave (dark wave)

My motto:
> A deadline is the best motivation.
> Boredom is the second best motivation.

================================================================================
TODO List (projects to talk about but never actually start)

[ ] Custom Keyboard 
    (an inside joke at this point; already talking about it for years) 40%
    ortholinear keyboard with thumbstick, whatever all of that means haha I
    already have all the components but I shy away from creating the pcb in
    kicad. Ahh this weekend I'm gonna have a look at it. Huh!? Did I watch memes
    this long? Well next weekend it is! In the future people will use my
    keyboard that has a sbc computer intergrated in it together with HUD glasses
    to have a super portable and productive set-up that be taken anywhere
    without a pulky backpack. A setup that you can take everywhere without
    thinking about it and can spontaniously decide to be proctive (or be lazy
    and watch anime) anywhere. let me dream yeah

[ ] PUBG for Linux. I rly miss playing this game but I sure won't crawl back to
    windows just for it. Maybe I just haven't found the alternative on steam
    yet. There are some open source shooters (SAUERBRATEN, Xonotic) which arent
    battle royal nor have realistic weapons. The only game that is close might
    be UEBERGAME. It looks playable but a bit rough around the edges.
    Unfortunately the development seems to have stalled and the repo was
    deleted. I have found some forks from the time it got deleted. Maybe someone
    could pick up where it was left of. ~Or write a new game in Godot to also be
    abandoned within a year. Maybe an idea for my next gamejam. 

[ ] Open Animal Crossing / TuxCrossing
    Take the characters from SuperTuxKart and put em in a village. Put some
    trees in there, add cute dialoge and of course the little planet geometry
    shader. Already done a test with geometry shaders in raylib. But could also
    be written in Irrlicht like SuperTuxKart is, or Godot. Would need many
    assets as it mostly is a collection game. Day/Night circle + seasons in real
    time from real world time. Maybe port back to Nintendo DS / Smartphone / ...

[ ] Roast Me[ssenger] - the next bad matrix client
    all matrix clients are bad. no client support multiple accounts well. lets
    make the next bad client https://xkcd.com/927/. Im thinking
    of a treeview: 0th level is accounts, 1st level is spaces, dms, rooms with
    the rooms being the leaves. for technology im thinking rust sdk + egui
    (looks like a dev inspector which is cool; is portable). could be extended
    to be a multi messenger. pidgin, telepathy. Having Matrix as a Telepathy
    service might be interesting. Though I never used Telepathy. But multi
    messengers are interesting. But all have their own plugins and they all die. 
    Telepathy is more moduler. Messenging services and frontends interact over
    dbus. So you can have different frontends. 

[ ] Minetest Portal Mod

[ ] Custom PC Case 
    Super portable pc case for LAN-Parties (when the keyboard isn't enough). 
    I also already have all the hardware (ITX Mainboard, Half-Length GPU, Small
    Fan). But it also already have a small case that is portable enough. So it
    isnt that important. 

[ ] open Razr / Blackberry
    The motorola Razr and Blackberry phones are iconic but it seems not much
    effort has been taken to write alternative roms for them. Would be nice to
    have a classic phone that could run modern messeging apps. Mobile data might
    be tricky. Portable keyboard phone with linux would also be interesting.
    Though there is Beepberry that uses a Blackberry keyboard with a raspberry
    pi. 

[ ] NGINX Gemini Module (serve a gemni capsule and proxy (from) and to http)
    Gemini is a protocol I want to play with, but haven't found a good start yet. 
    Maybe if I implement my own server I can start enjoying this minimalist
    protocol. And maybe it would then the protocol would get more attention if it
    is integrated into NGINX. 

[X] Stickers!!! With many colors and shapes! I said to myself that I dont want
    to be a designer. But putting memes on vinyl and covering/personalising my
    laptops is fun and addicting. Maybe try it yourself and upload some images to
    your sticker manufacturer. It's a fun gift to give to your friends or when
    meeting new people. Have a look at my collection /archive/sticker
