Well, I've been reading a lot, working, seeing friends - on the more technical side I've been repairing a lot of vintage audio equipment. My most recent project was an old RCA audio frequency generator, next up is one of these: https://people.ohio.edu/postr/bapix/Conalert.htm

As for ricing, I just installed openbox and am goinna tool around with it - I never was much for tiling wms (scorn not my simplicity).

I deleted my reddit accounts around the same time I left here, so I won't be going there. I'm glad you're still around and active.
