Hi, I like forking lots of free-and-open-source projects and making changes to them. Some of my key areas of interest are porting things to Macs for MacPorts, fixing compiler bugs with GCC, trying to make a fully FOSS version of Darwin (like GNUDarwin or PureDarwin) a thing again, working on user-made campaigns for The Battle of Wesnoth, and many other things. I am currently living on SSI (Supplemental Security Income from Social Security) payments due to the various mental health issues I face, including depression, anxiety, schizotypal personality disorder, OCD, and ADHD, and I also receive other government benefits (HUD housing, food stamps, Medicaid), so any sponsorships would do a lot to help raise me out of the poverty I currently live in, and make me more independent. While I may be a state legislator in New Hampshire (yes, neurodiverse people can get elected here), that only pays $100 a year (plus mileage), and is essentially a volunteer position, so I need additional sources of income to get by.
