I'm a software engineer working in cyber security, and an alumnus of the University of Birmingham, Mathematics & Computer Science (back in the 1980s).

When I'm not programming in C++ under duress, I like messing around with computers, networks, and technology in general. This corner of the Fediverse lives behind my sofa, and it's not Mastodon… #GoToSocial.

I'm left of centre, interested in UK/EU/US politics and the #Green agenda. I'm an enthusiastic #EV owner. Pro-Europe, pro-PR. I'll follow back if you have an interesting bio.

I love a great landscape photograph and I love thin places, wild nature and especially the Celtic fringe; however, I live in Elgar country.

Just Stop Oil protester, 78, has jail term extended after no suitable tag found, according to the Guardian. This is totally disgusting. Regardless of why she was incarcerated in the first place, this is not justice as I would define it. #JustStopOil #Justice

The private company that is contracted to provide the tags has failed to fulfil the terms of its contract, but, instead of punishing the failing company, or even working on some sensible alternative (as if a 78-year-old is a flight risk, or danger to the public), for blatant political reasons, they punish her.
