Hi, I'm Aks (Akseli Lahtinen) from Finland! I'm KDE dev by day and a hobbyist gamedev/FOSS-dev by night. I like metal, industrial and EBM music, and I love FPS, RPG and spacesim games. I also love tinkering with Linux systems.

Sorry KDE Planet readers, this is just rambly non-techy post. Burning out is no joke. I have gone through 3 or 4 major burnouts in my life. All of them related to programming, in a way or another. Basically my burnout starts when I can't...
I had the hankering for tinkering the KDE application style. The default style by KDE, Breeze, is pretty nice as is, but there are small things I'd like to modify. There's Klassy which is quite customizable and fun, but I don't really...
My wife made a video of us visiting Stockholm, go check it here! We saw Trash Taste in Stockholm! | Honeymoon vlog
Preface: What is trust to me? To make it clear what trust means to me: Can I trust my privacy, no matter how miniscule part of information you want, in your hands? (my PTSD plays heavily in this lol) Can I trust your software or whatever...
It's common to dislike ads. They're annoying for many. I recommend anyone to use an adblocker whenever they can. Despite ads being annoying, they're also bad for your privacy. Blocking them helps avoiding annoyance and keeping your...
After ten years of dating, me and tecsiederp got finally married. Our wedding ceremony was very nice and reflected us well. No priests or churches, just us and our family and friends. Fun were had, went to sauna, saw cute ducklings,...
I actually like writing code. That's really it. If I didn't, I still wouldn't use it due to the ethical/copyright issues, but I don't even have to think that far: I just like writing code. Why would I give something I like to a robot? I...
Hindsight preface: This was written in very tired state. I have been chatting about this with people who know more than I ever will about Flatpak. Soo I have added few edits here and there. If I seem frustrated, most of my frustration is...
Note: Old links to my site may not work anymore, due to change in the URL layout!! I tried to make a redirect for them however. Blog update I have finally updated my blog look and feel. In fact, I completely switched my static site...
Hey all, just a simple blog post this time, I just wanted to showcase the colorscheme I have made for KDE Plasma and various text editors and such. Download I have been working on this colorscheme for many months now, slowly tweaking it...
As someone who has been doing test automation for past ~3,5 years (and desperately wanting out towards doing just development), I have done a lot of bug reports. Then I switched to Linux based OS and that amount has doubled. :D I have...
No, not april fools. Hacker News is one of those websites where the commenters are often very angry people. Note, I said commenters not lurkers/passive browsers/link clickers. Anyone who uses Hacker News just as a website to find links...
Quick post for this time. Seems my game, Penance has been uploaded on Steam by someone who I don't know, completely without my permission. They're selling my free game and of course I'm not gonna get any money from their sales. If you...
This is kind of open letter I suppose. I've seen a lot of similar stuff happen in other projects too, like GNOME. So I wanted to write down what happened to me and my inbox today. It's written in my perspective, but I'm sure many can...
I just wanted to write this down since I've been talking a bit about podcasts on fediverse. I listen a lot of podcasts when gaming, it's kind of a way how I relax. Nothing like good multiplayer FPS where I can turn off my brains, then I...
