"Jokes?" he asked. "Let's hear one." "Why is a laser beam like a goldfish?" Mike knew about lasers but where would he have seen goldfish? Oh, he had undoubtedly seen flicks of them and, were I foolish enough to ask, could spew forth thousands of words. "I give up." His lights rippled. "Because neither one can whistle."
31/F/USA Amateur open source enthusiast. I'm very much a generalist studying a wide range of disciplines.
My current linux of choice is Ubuntu Studio. Although I quite enjoy Ubuntu OSE now that I'm encountering it for the first time. At least, I appreciate the pre-included applications.
Hoping to contribute to the documentation. My education is in Technical Communication and Information Design. 8 years experience. I have some Instructional Design background as well. Currently work in marketing.
Have some basic maker experience:
Built a Prusa under mentorship during and after college. I need to reprint the parts for it's z axis and a few other parts that were damaged during repeated moves while it wasn't in operation. Interested in the D3D. Am thinking of repairing the Prusa and using it with the D3D extruder.
Have played with Adafruit, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi. Understand the basic principles of making things with circuits and such, but still very n00bish in aspects. I really admire Adafruit's documentation, and hope to bring a similar energy.
Tried out 3Dponics a few years ago, but didn't really like it. The parts ended up growing mold and there was no way to properly clean it. Perhaps innovations in filaments and printing techniques could change my impression of it.
Currently growing what I can in dirt in an urban patio environment, but am very interested in learning more about the aquaponics projects here and trying that out when I have land. Believe the world needs a permaculture mindset.
Interested in developing with: python, FreeCAD, OpenSCAD, 3D printing, the GIMP, Inkscape, LibreOffice, Scribus, OBS, Vokoscreen, Kdenlive etc.
Hoping to assist in hosting Extreme Builds in my area.
I believe this is important work. The existence of this project in my college years is one that definitely had an influence on how I see the possibilities. I am happy to now be assisting with it. I hope that via helping with documentation, I learn this project in depth.
