    Hi, I'm Marco Kellershoff, an Atheist who is known as Walialu on the internet and also has some repos on github. I like taking pictures and sometimes videos. I am from Cologne, Germany.

    I have a 3y old daughter (turning 4 this November) and a wife.


    I spent a lot of time playing video games in the past and I started video games with Monkey Island, Summer Games / Winter Games and Dune 2 by Westwood Studios (pre Command & Conquer) on a 33MHz 386 machine. I also had a hell of a time in World of Warcraft. I hope we, the community, will make this game (Starbound), the best game ever!!

    I have an amazon.de wishlist where you can buy me stuff, if you like.

    I see myself as a hacker by the definition of the jargon file. I do not claim to be able to hijack other peoples computers/servers, neither i want to hijack them - I just love playing around with computers/electronics.

    I mostly do some JavaScript hacking at work, but I'm quite familiar with PHP, Ruby, Python, Java, HTML, CSS, MySQL, MongoDB, SQLite and C#. I love Ubuntu and VIM as my editor of choice.

    If you just do an image search in google, you might get some pictures of me, but be warned, they might be not safe for work!

    You can probably guess that I have taken over the usual streamed message. Do not fret, I merely came to say Hello.
    Hello.
    I am also here to provide what help I can. One second.

    Well that should be all that you'll need to get started round here. Enjoy your stay, but be wary, lest I hack your streams as well.
    Only Joking.
    Maybe.

    @demensia: if you post this for every newbie like me, someone might consider this as spam :)

    Not really, it's a post to deliver all of the main threads to newbies, TvK also does it. Basically it's an unofficial official welcome package.

    I like @TvK 's posting way more. It's more appealing to me, because of the color- and font-/size-settings. And it looks not as spam to me (even if it is) :)
