Hello, I'm Theo.

This is a work in progress, but you could take a quick look.

I'm working on an idea I want to pursue, Digital Gardening. I've liked the idea of having a blog (since back when it was actually popular) where I can share my thoughts, and I stumbled across the digital garden concept. Look it up, it's cool. So that's the plan for here at some point later this year. But it is a bit of a tech challenge, which is also fun.

Things I do:

Homelab

Homelab is self-hosted services, like a website (this one) or Nextcloud (Gdrive/OneDrive alt), Jellyfin (Media), Immich (photos) & Gitea (Github alt).
I run each of these and more on Proxmox hosts. It's a good way to control your own data and learn.

Web Development

Still self teaching web dev, always stuff to learn.
Before on here I'd mentioned learning Keycloak and coming up with a versioning setup for my database. I've pretty much done both, I'll probably share that here at some point in that eventual blog setup.
Like a lot of folk in tech (or just in the world) I'm trying to figure out AI. What a headache, mostly in the ethics sense. My AI tldr: the tech is cool, I'm suspect of the rest.
Otherwise, NixOS and Neovim setups have been my tinkering of choice right now. Really fun.

The Van Project

I'm very slowly building out a camper van conversion, since those dark times where we all had to stay indoors. It's a Ford Transit, which means I've been spending more time on rebuilding / installing a "new" engine than I have actually doing any camper van related work.

Photography

I take some pictures with a Sony a6300. Landscapes while hiking mostly and the occasional city scene.
Might upload some here eventually.
