I was interviewed by email a short while ago by Alexandre. He’s collecting them from other people, so start with me and keep reading with Vermaden.
I sure hope you don’t disagree with this week’s BSD Now episode title. Among other things, it talks about pot.
I finally cleared out most of my BSD RSS. Now everyone has to post more stuff and refill!

SEMIBUG’s monthly meeting is online, and it’s tomorrow the 19th, at 1900 hours (-0400, Eastern) via Jitsi. It’s going to be about “the advantages of Emacs”, given by a group member. Go, see, even if it’s just to shake your fist at the screen and mumble “viiiiiiiiiiii”.
