  Current status: I am not happy (sorta). My new PC will become a thing after the 28th of December, but it should be good. In the mean time I managed to get Minecraft going on my FreeBSD server but only up to 1.12.2. 1.13 and beyond uses a new version of lwjgl Java library, which my system obviously doesn't have (yet).
  
  I really don't like how I was never able to join the Halloween festivities but we're going to get "revenge" for that; my gf came over for the weekend and her laptop contained a draft of my story which I totally forgot about.
  
  So yeah: coming soon: Shell's delayed Halloween story.

  I'm still alive. Sorry for the massive delay: I suffered from a computer crash (HD acting up & mobo misbehaving) so I'll need a replacement. Right now I'm using my FreeBSD server's KDE desktop as backup but unfortunately this box cannot run Minecraft and I'm also deeply caught up in work.
  
  A replacement is planned though: looking at a sweet i7; 256Gb SSD, 1Tb data disk & 16Gb memory.
  
  For context: I was using a 32bit Intel something dual core, a whopping 4Gb of memory and 500Gb storage set up in raid.

  SSD's are ideal for modern computers.
  I still think hard drives are decent for backing up data, because they're cheap and don't require to be left on all the time.
  
  Hybrid drives are also a good option for modern computers
  but I wished they had more NAND on them, 8gb cache like on Seagate's Firecuda hybrid hard drives can get used up pretty quickly if I'm not mistaken.

  Good to hear from you! Hope your files are safe and sound. Mmmm fresh SSD.

  Public collections made it onto my profile page ;) Right now it's somewhat limited and solely focuses on me (a collection with some of my blog posts & a collection of my favorite Minecraft servers) but I have more things planned, also stuff which involves our wonderful community.

  Remember when I mentioned my idea to interview Cyprezz? No? Well, then you're not one of my followers ;) Anyway, in the mean time I got confirmation: he agreed to answer some questions. So now is your chance to help with the Cyprezz interview. You got 14 days (give or take) so take your time :)

My name is Peter, go with the alias of ShelLuser on many sites, and I'm a huge fan of Minecraft and a vivid player. I've discovered the game around 2014 thanks to my girlfriend who demonstrated 1.7.10 to me (I got my own account the very same evening!). I've been playing ever since and consider myself a rather good Redstone engineer :)

My favorite type of playing is survival / vanilla'ish, but over the years I've also grown very fond of making Creative designs, mostly games and other things using command blocks and datapacks. To me Minecraft has become a lot more than "just" a sandbox survival game, it's now also one heck of a gaming platform where you can even go as far as making your own game in your game.

Finding me online?

I only actively play on one Minecraft server, but I have three favorites in total, you can find all of them in my favorite server collection. Keep in mind that I somewhat play casually these days, mostly because of my work but also because I spend time on some private servers to work on Creative projects.
