The Cobra's webpage
Free software is software that respects users' freedom and community.
Yo waddup, I'm Skylar (she/her), AKA The Cobra. I am a student, computer scientist, sysadmin, programmer, just about a Church Of Emacs Saint, free software developer and advocate, privacy advocate, and most based ~vern admin.
I run GNU Guix System on my libreboot ThinkPad T500 and postmarketOS on my mostly deblobbed PinePhone, which I only ever use as a NAT when I'm out. I'm a free software developer and activist, and use only free software. I also love pizza.
Here's a man page for tone indicators as command line flags
