German Sysadmin · NixOS Enthusiast · Pentester

Maintain network and server infrastructure at a government agency by day, develop NixOS tools and solve CTF challenges by night. Beyond that, deeply into privacy, automation, LLMs, and anything that gives me more control over my own stack.

Currently learning:

Terminal UI that consolidates generations management, package search, rebuild monitoring, error translation, and storage cleanup into a single keyboard-driven interface. Works locally and over SSH. 10 modules, 13 themes, EN/DE.

More projects are in the works — stay tuned.

If you're into homelabs or NixOS on non-standard hardware, you might find these interesting:

• nasdots — My NAS dotfiles. Full NixOS config for a Ugreen DXP4800 Plus with RAID5, NFS, fan control via out-of-tree kernel module, and a custom SSH dashboard. Not a tool, just my actual infrastructure.
• lapdots — My laptop dotfiles. NixOS flake config for a ThinkPad T14 Gen 2a with Hyprland, Gruvbox theming via Stylix, 150+ pentesting tools, and a security-hardened stack (Firejail, USBGuard, ClamAV, AIDE).

Looking for someone to contribute to Nix-based projects, pentest together, or exchange homelab ideas?
