I guess it's time I made an #introduction. I'm an ICT Technician in the south-west of Norway, and I dabble in a lot of things in my spare time.

When I'm being unproductive I tend to #read (#fantasy and #scifi, mostly), #game or browse the Internet. I also like to #sing, both at home and in a #choir.

I use #linux and #open_source. I do like a good #pun, and might inflict some upon you.

Apparently there are problems procuring enough liquid CO₂ in #Norway (and in northern #Europe in general), which has led to #Oslo forbidding the inhabitants to water their gardens, and producers of beer and carbonated drinks to become rather nervous.

I'm quite happy with yesterday's dinner. I made "chicken cumin", which I've done before, but this time I had researched the phrase "cook until oil separates".

It might just be me, but I thought it was much creamier and tastier that it has been before. #dinner #food #cooking

I've finally gotten around to colouring my avatar.

I've spent the evening watching Whisper of the Heart.

I found it to be quite fun and thought-provoking, even though it had quite a bit of teenage angst/drama. #ghibli #movie

#rant I just love when I'm waiting for a package in the mail, hoping it will get here before the weekend, only for it to arrive on Monday morning.

Because it wanted to go rafting… #pun

#funfact : the #Norwegian word for chives is "gressløk", which directly translates to "grass onion".

This weekend I've been to our mountain cabin, and took a trip to a rock shelter that isn't too far away from it.

I brought my camera, but didn't bother to look for it in the rucksack, so you'll have to make do with some pictures from my mobile.

(Besides, I don't think the lens I brought was wide-angle enough for the space.)

Is… is this… rain?! (Hint: Yes it is.) Good thing it was on the weather forecast so that I brought an umbrella.

I spent some time with my camera in my mother's garden last weekend (when I wasn't melting in the heat, that is).

The fire has been extinguished.

Speaking of the devil, the local fire department is now fighting a grass fire…

There are no buildings in the fire's path so far, though.

Let’s play a game, to help some of the newcomers make connections: name 5-7 things that interest you but aren’t in your profile, as tags so they are searchable. Then boost this post or repeat its instructions so others know to do the same.

Windows binaries for GNU #emacs 26.1are now available.

Speaking of the weather, this May is now officially the warmest one in recorded history (since 1900, when they officially started to record the temperature).

I've taken a bath in the fjord today, though the water was not quite as warm as the air above.

Version 26.1 of GNU #emacs has been released. No Windows version yet, it would seem.
