Tim "vulptronix" Knox is an aspiring software engineer new to the Seattle area. Their passion for computers and software development started from a young age, but making the switch to a small Linux distro in 2017 and figuring out how to manually get to an X session from a pitch black screen was the turning point in their life, as it led to them ultimately becoming a UNIX systems enthusiast. They have a knack for finding modern-day practical production-ready use for obscure, underrated or "old but gold" technology.
