Yes, let's increase postcount at CDZ.

I quit Facebook 4 years ago already and... I have never missed it.
I joined LinkedIn this year, but I rarely log in, and I wonder if I'll keep this account for a long time. I see these kinds of social networks as time-wasting bullshit more and more.

On the other hand, I subscribed for a dedicated server in a French datacenter. My long-term goal is to have many services running there. So far I have been able to exchange personal photos with friends via SFTP, chat with friends using an XMPP/Jabber server instance (webcam refuses to work, but I'll get into it), take part in a BOINC program (Internet grid-computing for science).
I intend to have my email server there someday, run different web sites, start a Git repository, and who knows what more.
So essentially I am becoming a total Linux nerd, using the line command for almost anything.
