Rado's current activities

by type:

Consumation

WWW (lynx, FireFox),
for sites of interest, have a look on my BOOKMARKS produced by FireFox.
UseNet (tin)
chosen groups are related to serious computer topics, and entertainment like humor, games or roleplaying.
Games
(for a long time not anymore:)

Communication

eMail (mutt), one-to-one, ordered, buffered
often in large volumes to get across with people I can't meet physically, due to distance or lack of time.
I'm not subscribed to high-traffic lists, just to announcements.
UseNet (tin), many-to-many, ordered, buffered
even though I post sometimes, it happens very rarely (now, thanks to spammers grabbing addresses), so that I'm more of a News consumer.
IRC (irssi), many-to-many, unordered, live
whenever I'm on-line you can always reach me on IRC. Click on a channel to hop in:
  1. irc.freenode.net: #rado, #mutt, #lynx, #ksh, #world-relations, #d&d, #awk, #sed, #irssi, #screen, #netrek, #paradise, #cpc, #xblast, #ghb,
  2. QuakeNet: #d&d, #quakeworld, #quake,
  3. UnderNet: #d&d,

Occupation

Study
Primary subject is computer science (Informatik) at Uni-Hamburg for too many years now. I'm a bit slow and lazy on this, I get distracted much by other interests.
Major sub-field is distributed and information systems.
Secondary subject is education and teaching.
Job (sysadmin)
None currently. Have one?

Badminton at TV GHB


Roleplaying: medieval fantasy: D&D

Having played *D&D now for several years. Enjoying the 3rd ed. of D&D ever since it came out. Looking for a group.

Used to play on Forgotten Realms a lot, but since the creation of Run Came I played there, because it's more personal so it creates intense affection, both for DM & players. Our last DM was Sören. One of our players left Hamburg, so we stopped playing because DM felt 2 players were too few.
Currently I don't play but rather gather ideas to see what to make out of D&D terms and concepts (behind the rules).

Since the ruleset leaves much space for different interpretations, and some aspects are not even covered, I keep a list of such unsolved cases with some solutions: so called house rules.


Programming

most of it sleeping due to studies or other activity
