A friend installed Red Hat on my PC in 1997 and I never stopped tinkering. By day I keep companies' servers and ERP running; the rest of the time I build things with whatever is new. Lately that means AI that runs on your own machine and plugins for Omarchy. On forums and almost everywhere else I'm SomniusX.

Everything I make, write and have worked on lives at lefteros_ · lefteros.com: the projects, the guides and posts, the full story and where else I show up. This page is the short version.

CrossInk is open firmware (MIT) for the small Xteink e-ink readers. Until now it didn't speak Greek: Greek books came out as ◆ boxes, and neither the menu nor the hyphenation knew the language. I built Greek support in under 24 hours, and it's out as a test build for the Xteink X4 Pro.

• Greek in the reading fonts. Bitter and Lexend Deca have no Greek, so Greek subsets of Noto Serif and Noto Sans now sit next to them in every style.
• Greek hyphenation. With justified text, words break where they should: κα-λη-μέ-ρα, ηλε-κτρο-νι-κός, προ-ϋ-πό-θε-ση.
• A Greek menu. All 843 interface strings are translated.
• Greek titles everywhere. The home screen, descriptions and clippings show Greek titles and authors properly, even with an English menu.
• Room to spare. With Vietnamese and Arabic taken out, the Greek build is still about 57 KB smaller than the official 1.6.0.

ShadowRealms AI: a tabletop RPG platform where the dungeon master is a local LLM. The narrator remembers your campaign through RAG memory in ChromaDB, runs on Docker with Flask and React, and is MIT-licensed. It's my biggest project.

Omarchy is the Arch + Hyprland setup everyone's trying right now. I build plugins for its bar, and I opened a pull request upstream for Libreboot / Coreboot support.

There's more behind the curtain. Many of my repos are private: personal projects, client work and business tools (ERP bridges, retail data pipelines, infrastructure scripts). The public ones are the tip. lefteros.com tells the rest.

• A friend showed me Red Hat in 1997. A month later I installed it myself, partitions and all, and never went back.
• During a mass-login event our Minecraft server hit 8,000+ players at once. It held on two Xeons, 64 GB of RAM used as a disk, and a lot of nerve. I told the story at HAEC.
• My first standalone WinBox for Mac earned me a Level 5 licence from MikroTik.
• A 1:10 map of Ancient Greece in Minecraft that we built made the SKAI evening news in 2016.
• I moderated Hackintosh forums for years and ran HellasProject from 2007 to 2014.
• These days I flash Libreboot onto ThinkPads for fun, and I called the first Omarchy Greece meetup.
