Welcome

I'm Sander, from the Netherlands. I run local language models on my home server using Debian 13 (trixie). No cloud services, no subscriptions, just hardware and free software.


About

{ identity = { name = "Sander Mirck"; location = "Netherlands"; }; current_focus = [ "Running LLMs locally with Ollama" "Self-hosting on Debian 13" ]; previously = "NixOS enthusiast"; }
Most of my repositories are experiments, works-in-progress, or notes to my future self. I don't have time for large, maintained projects.
