[[Image:Adminship.png|frame|center|Whoosh—here comes the adminship of Linuxbeak, the second recipient of this rare honor from User:Bishonen! May you captain her as beautifully as if she was your airplane!]]
== Linuxbeak ==
I finally got around to making a User page. Yay.
{{MultiLicensePD}}
{{babel-3|en|de-1|fr-1}}

== Who I Am ==

*'''Name''': ''Alex Schenck''
*'''Age''': ''18; birthdate December 8th, 1986''
*'''Location''': ''Glocester, Rhode Island''
*'''Gender''': ''Male''
*'''Education''': ''High School Graduate ([[Ponaganset High School]]). Incominging freshman, [[University of Rhode Island]].''
*'''Activities''': ''Flying, Civil Air Patrol, Wikipedia, amateur radio, euphonium/music, computers, Linux, trap and rifle shooting''

== Random Tidbits ==

==='''Computers'''===
====''Linux''====
*I have a 16-node [[Beowulf cluster]] in my basement, running [[Linux]]. The master node is a [[PowerEdge]] 4300 with dual [[Pentium III]] 450 MHz [[Central processing unit|CPUs]], and the total computing power of the cluster is about 1.4 gigaflops (1.4 billion floating point operations per second).
[[Image:Beowulf.jpg|thumb|350px|Left|That's my Beowulf cluster!]]
*I keep [[Microsoft Windows]] only for the very very occasional game; otherwise, I'm a full-time [[Linux]] user.
**I have used [[Mandrake Linux]], [[Red Hat Linux]], [[Debian GNU/Linux]], [[Scyld Beowulf Linux]], [[Fedora Linux]], [[Knoppix|Knoppix Linux]], [[Slackware Linux]], and [[Gentoo Linux]]. My favorites are Scyld, Slackware, and Gentoo.
*I own a [[Sharp Zaurus]] SL-5500 [[Linux]] [[Personal digital assistant|PDA]].
*I have done over 100 [[kernel]] compiles.
*I am vehemently against calling [[Linux]] "[[GNU/Linux]]". While I agree that [[Linux]] would never have made it to where it is today if it wasn't for [[Richard Stallman]]'s contributions and the [[GNU]] project, I think it's stupid to name it [[GNU/Linux]]. To me, that's [[Richard Stallman]]'s way of whining that [[Linus Torvalds]] beat him to making a '''successful''' [[open-source]] [[kernel]]. Sorry, Rich, but [[GNU/HURD]] just didn't get off the ground.
*I have put [[Linux]] on my [[Texas Instruments]] [[TI-89]] graphing calculator. Yes, I'm sick.

====''Jobs''====
*I work for a small business called ''DataLink, Inc.''. It's a little small-time computer shop in [[Smithfield, Rhode Island]].
====''Hardware''====
*I have sucessfully destroyed:
**3 Monitors by fire
**1 Motherboard by shortcircuiting
**2 Hard-drives by overuse (or they were just crap)
**1 CPU by pin bending
**1 Printer by old age
**4 Mice
**1 Microphone
**1 Set of speakers
**1 Heatsink (don't ask.)
**2 CD-ROMs
**At least 5 Floppy Drives
**At least 20 Floppy Disks
*I built my computer myself. [[BFD]].
*I regularly attend the [[MIT]] Flea Market held by the [[MIT]] Ham Radio Club. It's every third Sunday of every month from April to October.
*I refuse to give up my old [[Intel 80486|486]].

==='''Civil Air Patrol'''===

*I'm a C/SrA (Cadet Senior Airman)
*I have been on a whopping one emergency services mission to find an [[Emergency locator transmitter|ELT]].
*I belong to the 102nd Composite Squadron, which is the best damn squadron in Rhode Island.
*I am training to become a pilot through the Civil Air Patrol.
**I have no logged hours as of yet, but I have stick time on two aircraft: N9824L and N908CP (both [[Cessna]] 172 Skyhawks)
***Apart for CAP, my first flight in a small aircraft was a doozy: I flew in a [[Beechcraft]] A36 Bonanza.
*I am an extremely active editor of the [[Civil Air Patrol]] article.
*I was for a time part of the Color Guard.
*I was the squadron's Cadet of the Quarter.

==='''Other Random Stuff'''===
====''Amateur Radio''====
*My callsign is KB1LYZ.
*I own a [[Vertex]] VX-150 radio.
**I børked that radio and I sent it in for repair. I'm still waiting (after more than two months) for it to come back. I'm getting <s>annoyed</s> <s>pissed</s> '''really''' pissed.
*I like to hang around on the 2-meter range on the 146.76 [[repeater]] in Rhode Island.

====''Education''====
I am a recent graduate of [[Ponaganset High School]]. I am going to be attending [[University of Rhode Island|URI]] this fall.
===''Music''===
*I play the [[euphonium]].
**Most people give me weird looks and say "huh?" when they hear that. I've gotten used to it.
*I have been part of the Senior All-State Band of Rhode Island for two years.
*I have earned 3 medals for solo performances.
*I started out on [[trumpet]] but that didn't go well. I moved to [[euphonium]] and that went superb. Although my skills are weak, I am able to play the [[trombone]]. I toyed around with the [[French horn]] before dropping it.
*I suck at singing.
**As in I can crack diamonds with my voice.
===''Other stuff''===
*I am an [[Eagle Scout]].
*I am a Bar III Sharpshooter.
*I own a Winchester 94/22 rifle.
