[The R-Box Podcast](https://www.youtube.com/@ther-boxpodcast8099/) - A bunch of my childhood friends decided to band up and create a podcast while they were living together. This is the result, basically a distillation of our inside jokes and humor in three glorous episodes. I don't talk to these guys much anymore, but as far as I can tell it's never coming back. Probably only funny to people who know them personally (like me), but who knows? I recorded an episode with them as a guest a while back when I was back in town, but I guess I was such a terrible guest they didn't bother uploading it.

|
#### Communities
|
|
[SKYN3T](https://skyn3t.in) - I hang out with these guys a lot on Mumble
|
|
[Cyberia](https://cyberia.club) - A "hacker collective" I hung out with on Mumble a long time ago back in my "[tech geeker](http://xahlee.info/UnixResource_dir/writ/tech_geeker.html)" days
|
|
[Cock.li](https://cock.li) - My junk email provider, I used to hang out on their mailing list and keep up with their shenanigans
|
|
|
|
#### Personalities I follow
|
|
[Xah Lee](http://xahlee.info) - Aside from the Emacs Lisp manual and C-h f, his website is my main resource for ELisp programming. I also like reading his philosophical blog posts, he has an interesting mix of enjoying free and open source software while criticizing it. I am also planning on digging into his book recommendations, as they seem to be solid books that would definitely expand my view of the world.
|
|
[Richard Stallman](https://stallman.org) - The originator of the Free Software and copyleft movements. His ideas on software are a bit extreme and would not work in the real world, and I disregard most of his opinions on social issues.
|
|
[Vincent Canfield](https://vc.gg) - The administrator of [cock.li](https://cock.li), his blog posts are pretty interesting but he hasn't posted in about 2 years.
|
|
[Se7en](https://se7en-site.neocities.org) - A guy I met on the [cock.li](https://cock.li) mailing list. He has interesting blog posts on pretty much anything but I disregard his more extreme opinions on the Covid vaccine.
|
|
[Videogamedunkey](https://youtube.com/videogamedunkey) - One of the only bearable YouTube personalities, his ideas on video games are very insightful and highly influenced my own ideas on what constitutes a *good* video game.
|
|
[MoistCr1TiKaL](https://youtube.com/penguinz0) - I watch his videos when I'm bored and want to see some wacky thing that happened on the internet or in real life. I mostly skip through his videos because his commentary really isn't that funny and his videos are way too long.
|
|
[Internet Historian](https://www.youtube.com/@InternetHistorian) - The authoritative source on any major recent happening. Probably the most skilled documentarian on YouTube. He rarely uploads which I really like.
|
|
[Greasy Tales (formerly SexuaLobster)](https://www.youtube.com/@SexuaLobster) - A very talented animator I was introduced to almost 10 years ago, his videos are pretty funny and he rarely uploads.
|
|
[Pea](https://pea.moe) - A guy I met on the [cock.li](https://cock.li) mailing list.
|
|
[Ed and Mari](https://web.archive.org/web/20130823160422/http://edandmari.com) - The last archive of edandmari.com, a couple's personal website onto which I stumbled when I was a kid looking for Star Wars lore. These guys inspired a lot of my hobbies, including Star Wars, root beer tasting, amateur restaurant reviewing, and pressed penny collecting.
|
|
[Terry Davis](https://templeos.org) - A schizophrenic programmer who created TempleOS. Unfortunately, [he is now deceased](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oH41gGBVpkE).
|
|
[DemiseTheGod](https://www.youtube.com/@DemiseTheGod) - I grew up with this guy, but lost touch with him when I deleted Snapchat years ago. We used to hang out a lot, playing vidya and basketball. He tried for a while to make it as a pro CoD player and clip editor but that scene died out in the mid to late 2010s as far as I can tell. He's now trying to make it as a Valorant streamer. I'm more enamored with his YouTube videos as he plays old Wii games which is infinitely more interesting than modern competitive shooters.

|
|
|

[Nabee Socks](https://nabeesocks.com) - Sellers of very great compressions socks. My wife - a nurse - says they really help her on the job, which requires her to be on her feet all day.

|
[PC Keyboard](https://pckeyboard.com) - The guys who originally manufactured the greatest keyboard ever made, the IBM Model M, have their own storefront featuring keyboards which use the patented buckling-key mechanism. I currently own their New Model M with the PS/2 port but can't use it because I spilled coffee on it.

|
[List of DRM-free games on Steam](https://steam.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_DRM-free_games) - A common misconception is that every game on Steam is DRM-encumbered with the Steam DRM. This is not the case, and this site documents which games do not have DRM. Slightly outdated.
