;;;;;

I'm a programming, free software and GNU/Linux enthusiast. I'm also a
programmer profesionally, so that works out well.

I was born in The Netherlands, live in Belgium and work for a dutch
company. I have been using GNU/Linux since 2008, having settled on
[Archlinux](https://www.archlinux.org) after trying
[Ubuntu](http://www.ubuntu.com/), [Fedora](https://getfedora.org/) and
[Zenwalk](http://zenwalk.org/). I have been using
[GNU Emacs](https://gnu.org/software/emacs/) since not long after
switching over to GNU/Linux.

I can also be found at [github](https://github.com/ryuslash),
[gitorious](https://gitorious.org/~ryuslash) and
[Open Hub](https://www.openhub.net/accounts/ryuslash).
