Rö’s Wiki
This is my public online notebook;
an unorderly pile of software, scripts, snippets, thoughts,
rants and mostly technical babble.
This is a Wiki — the pages of this website are meant
to be collaboratively edited from within your web browser
or directly using git(1) and your favourite $EDITOR.
For best results, use TLS and
IPv6.
