Syfaro . @syfaro,

Hey there! I’m a purple fox who paws at keyboards a little too much. I like to talk about programming projects, 3D printing, technology in general, and of course, foxes.

My current big project is FoxBot and FuzzySearch, a Telegram bot and reverse image search index for furry artwork. There's even an API if you're interested in that kind of thing!

I generally don't talk about sensitive/adult topics on this account, but posts will have CWs if needed.

I'm still really happy that I set up a PXE server with a bunch of utilities a while ago. So I don't need to mess around with USB sticks for any of the computers in my apartment, I just netboot into Clonezilla or Memtest or whatever.

It's so cool to see how many people are doing reverse image searches on https://fuzzysearch.net these days.

The API is serving a lot more requests (16k+ per day), but seeing people intentionally seek out the website like this is rewarding.
