Anime-style game artwork for “Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter,” featuring four characters, a bird, and a bright outdoor background.

My name's Chris. I'm a native Texan but I've lived in the United Kingdom for 30 years now.

I'm a proud alumni of #TheOpenUniversity and holder of a BSc in Environmental Management and Technology that I gained mostly for fun.

In those almost 3 decades, I've worked across the entire spectrum of enterprise IT from development to operations and ending up somewhere in between.

I currently work for Indicium AI as a Principal Platform Engineer.

Outside of #technology, I'm interested in #allotment #gardening, #photography with my #Canon R5, #politics, #cooking, #DIY, #travel, #nature, #druidry, #health, #gaming, #anime and #fitness

Been looking forward to this for a bit... Outside Xbox live stream!

I’m really loving the working LCARS interface, ship view, and system/sector navigation maps. It’s very well thought out and executed. I’m already emotionally-invested in the story and characters, but now I’m the one in the hot-seat and this just-the-right-amount in-universe interface empowers that while still feeling like a familiar Survival/Strategy game.

When you transition to a new sector, you get to listen to personal logs of select officers, voiced by the original actors of course, commenting on the current situation and choices you’ve made. Tuvok is extra sassy. Tom Paris is noticeably more sarcastic, by a good 15%. They’re both dragging Neelix through the mud here.
