What is Spod Central?

Physically

Two machines: strackenz, my rather ancient FreeBSD server, and chiara, my XP game'n'music box. Both living with me in a room in North London, also containing lots of boardgames, lots of books, a bed, a cat, and a me.

Virtually

Circumspice.


Why strackenz?

ISBN 0006511260.

Why spod-central?

From 'help spod' on Surfers:

spod
a sometimes sad computer person, nerd, someone who habitually is found slumped over a computer keyboard as the first rays of sunlight emerge.

I've been using "Spod Central" as my Organization: header for well over a decade.

Why org?

I'm neither a commercial entity, an educational institution, a network infrastructure provider, an international organisation, a US Federal Government agency, nor part of the US military. Therefore, the .org gTLD is the one that my domain fits under. Domain registrars may ignore RFC 1591; I don't. (And don't talk to me about all the new gTLDs that ICANN have introduced; entirely unnecessary profiteering. .aero, for gods' sakes?)


For those wondering:

strackenz ~ $ locate -i mp3 | grep -i '\.mp3$'
strackenz ~ $

No MP3s here. Try somewhere else. Requests for them will be deleted unanswered.


Any problems, contact me.
