So, I'm a computer freak, and i'm proud of it. I'll continue to be one, for as long as I live, I guess. It is my primary hobby, from many sides. I use it to collect, listen and try to compose some music, draw and watch graphical demos and visual effects, find information, chat with people, play tricks on them :>, program some basic stuff that make my day easier, practice my reflexes and make levels on Doom by ID Software Inc..

Two of my best levels (that are still in a development stage) are Cyberdelia and The Death Complex.

Also, a basic job of mine is to advocate the use of free things and software (ie. Unix, Linux in particular (if you use Linux as well, go Register yourself!). Since Windows 95, i got used to hating Microsoft and Bill Gates. I have seen many of their products, and most of them are correctly commented as "bloatware".

Except Linux, I do use windoze (95) as well, but don't get me wrong. Today's software urges me to do so, as I need to use Photoshop, 3DS Max and other software that run only under Win95/NT OSes (and excuse me, but I simply don't like GIMP :). I won't post the story of Microsoft on this page, as you can read a very good page that has the whole thing.

If you're getting bored on the net, try IRCing. I guess you'll already know what IRC is, either by experience at home, or just by visiting a net-cafe ;)

Here are some GRnet IRC servers and channels that you might want to try:

  • Servers:
    • nana.irc.gr (hosted at FORTHnet, good for greek backbone)
    • thirio.irc.gr (N.T.U.A., good for US users too)
    • australia.irc.gr (Where would that be anyway...?)
    • virginia.irc.gr (Virginia, USA)
  • Channels:
    • #DigitalNexus
      (founder: cybernoid -me-, name comes from Digital Nexus #2 BBS that I operated somewhere in time).
    • #Greece-Once_Upon_a_Time
      (founder: apomakros. 'Tis a channel with no specific subjects, but with very good people for chatting and having fun).

Some good IRC web sites for starters:
