Watching a video about different types of foxes and where they live on the planet
Me: "and where is the dragonfox?!"
... And then me getting pointed at by a person in real life - yes, I am dragonfox :3
Building clouds, crashing servers, writing my own OS and tinkering with electronics. I'm also quite (species-, gender-, sexuality- and neuro-)queer and go by either she/her or they/them (both singular and plural!) pronouns.
Apparently an old and wise dragon, granting wisdom and advice around queer and/or polyam topics. Quoting a friend:
This is like "can you fix my wifi" but for poly queers hahahahha
Someone decided it be a good idea to make me tech lead for Kubernetes stuff at my employer and I somehow have commits in Kubernetes and UEFI, while also having commit access to LLVM - I'm really not quite sure how that happened 🙃
This is not a professional account though, I'm mostly writing queer (shit-)posts sprinkled with a few project logs or rants.
I usually write alt texts for media I post and at least think twice before boosting any non-alt-texted media.
You might know my other account at @LittleFox, but that is mastosoc and I don't really use it anymore. Because I'm running a single-user instance (that btw was never meant to be my "productive" instance), you might not see any posts from me without going to my profile on my instance directly - federation is always working perfectly, except when it isn't for any weird edge case ^^
Call me Mara, Sophie, Luna or Saphira! Or find any of the bonus names also working :o)

Type of dragon often wrapping beings to make them feel comfy and safe while being too big to be wrapped in wings themselves..
Remember!
If you want scalable systems, ask beings with scales to build them!
Some dragons accidentally use their breath weapon when laughing, which is why tickling the dragon is that dangerous
Dragon facts!
Contrary to popular belief, dragons are not immune against burns from waaay too hot food
I HATE DRAGONS
Random lore dump!
My nick in IRC was "\n" for some time. Why? It's the escape sequence in C-like languages for a newline, specifically the ASCII control character "line feed", commonly abbreviated as "LF" - it's just matching my nickname "LittleFox" and after someone called me "LF", I started using that as a base for many name puns.
It's ASCII code is 10 in decimal or, more importantly, 0x0a in hex.
The logo I always use in new stuff is a Fox climbing down from upper right to lower left, mostly with some text between upper and lower paws - they are climbing to the start of the next line
poor fox' mtr: watch traceroute $ip
I love working with ansible, it's always so much fun!
(it very much is not)
Good night fedi
just casually installing a 4-node k8s cluster on my work laptop /o\
I'm so tired, I'm already in bed
Tired dragonfox in your timeline? More likely than you think!
x.x
why do I have "3 In The Morning (Pianokind)" on loop now? ^^'
Apparently there is now a plane ticket with my name on it o.o
"Ah, you are farmer Maggot then - where are your mushrooms?"
"In my cellar of course! So.. three levels above you!"
Good mrewning fedi!
