  28. Hi, I'm Sean.

    I'm from the oldest incorporated city in so-called #canada, #SaintJohn - home of the #irving empire.

    I am an iconoclast - staunchly #antifascist, #antiracist, #anticapitalist, somewhere on the #autism spectrum, and 3 years into punishing #LongCovid. #WearAMask!!!

    I've worked the last decade as #HeadOfSound at a beautiful heritage #theatre. Before that I was in #tech for a decade doing #development and #reverseEngineering. I've also worked in #electronics and other #audio fields.

    I grew up in a musical family and have played in bands since 13. I'm on around 60 albums, have toured canada and the us, and am part of what is likely the most prolific band in canada: #Slugmilk.

    I run a home mixing studio and a small printshop and I have a small "datacentre" which #selfhosts this #mastodon instance.

    I'm here on the #fedi to learn from everyone, and to help others learn. I will help anyone with anything I can.

    I'd love to meet more like-minded friends - don't be shy!

    #Introduction

  29. My city of #saintJohn in #NewBrunswick #canada has a massive drydock ship building facility which used to build ships, but was shut down and eventually turned into a commercial drywall wall board plant.

    It would be the **PERFECT** location to mass produce #windTurbines for #offShort #wind collection.

    Studies have already shown that we could **easily** capture more than 150% of our provincial power needs with offshore alone.

    No more expensive #quebecHydro. No more #smr's. Just clean wind.

  30. I heard lots of #Fiddle & #Reels, Don Messer's Jubilee, I recognize most of it, but never knew the names.
    Here's one:
