Hi, I'm Gnome

Just your casual internet nerd

Hi!

Hi!

Welcome to my little piece of internet; it's currently a bit vacant I know, but doesn't every plot of land start out this way?

A recent graduate of Swansea University, Wales, with a First Class M.Sc. in Computer Science; I live with several registered, and specific, learning difficulties, and am a neurodivergent individual. Equally, I identify as non-binary, asexual, and aromantic, more on those in time... once I've worked it all out.

I do know however, that I am a big fan of puzzles. Usually the mental kind, that you can wrap your head around - I'm frequently found messing with something. Chiefly this would be Rubik's Cubes, but not always. Currently, and for the last few years at least, I've averaged about 55-60 seconds on the 4x4 (k4), 1 minute 40 (ish) on 5x5 (also k4), and because I don't solve it all that often, something like 20-25 seconds on 3x3 (Roux) - but I don't solve this one all that often anymore.

I've also been known to spend way too much time playing games like MineCraft, and Factorio, building insanely complicated rail networks for no reason other than "why not?". And like seemingly everyone these days, I own a camera, and am slowly learning how to use it. In addition to this, I'm also a watcher of Anime, listener of Symphonic Metal, a fairly regular eater of Noodles (who isn't) and, a great enjoyer of Scottish Whisky.

Whilst this site does contain a blog, of sorts, I do not expect, nor plan, to be posting with any set frequency. I pretty much only write when I have something to say, and that isn't all that often. And honestly, they're less like blog posts, and more like ramblings anyway...

With all that said, feel free to browse. :slight_smile:
