26/M/Poland, Europe/straight, don't watch TV (except Cartoon Network), smokes a lot (but tries to drop it, as usual), likes drum-n-bass, dancehall reggae, hiphop (mainly german), codes for food (loves patterns, Python, knows C, is ashamed of PHP and some other), about 8 years of unix experience, freelance consultant, medical uni graduate.
Except reading/watching a lot of S-F in the past, I'm rather not a type of S-F fanboy. It feels good to have a grip on reality. I'm not a forum-type person (this is my first phpBB post, IIRC), I don't have a blog with detailed description of personal events. I hardly socialize on the internet.
I'm not looking for a relationship, but I really wouldn't mind a pen-friend (or, e-mail friend, as it should be called these times); preferred form of communication: e-mail (IM takes too much time and requires interactivity).
Feel invited, if you ever plan to visit my country. I'm a big passionate of offroad biking (nothing extreme, I just like wilderness) & kayaks. In general, I feel like it would be great to meet someone inteligent, in similar age, who would share some of my passions and wouldn't be afraid to meet at some holiday time. Basically, I rather count on that, than on long talks about books, movies, programming and stuff - I live in this world long enough without such people, so I got used to it. But, going on holiday together with someone smart seems to me to be a great idea. We don't have to talk, I don't think I have anything to tell you. Let's just hit the road together and have shedloads of fun for a week or two.
I've seen wrongplanet.net linked on /., I came, I saw... hey, you have online chess, this fits me great, really. I'd like to play chess with someone IRL, none of people, that visit me from time to time know chess. Also, Bittorrent interview rocks. I belive I have much in common with that guy, basically, every OS sucks, every pointless thing is hard to concentrate on...
Hey, it's a good feeling, I'm not the only one. Great. Maybe there's someone out there, who thinks in a similar way, maybe not -- but this seems to be the best place to find out
