Niko's Webpage

I like computers.

I daily drive a PC, which I built myself. It has a Ryzen 7 7700X. I'm also patiently waiting for my MacBook Air to arrive.

I have a homeserver running OMV. I mainly run Jellyfin, Immich, an SMB share, NikoWoL (I love writing software I actually use) and a few others.

I love collecting old, weird and obscure hardware and experimenting with old, weird and obscure software.

I love the environments of Portal 2 (especially old Aperture), INFRA (all the abandoned buildings are stunning) and the Dying Light series. All of them feel rich with history, telling forgotten stories through their decay. (idk how to make this not sound cringy)

More of my favorites include Portal(2), Minecraft and Dying Light(2), The Stanley Parable, Road 96, UNDERTALE, The Entropy Centre and Euro Truck Simulator 2.

Right now I'm really excited about the new Dying Light game's release. As of 2025-7-4, I have 100% achievements and 89.8 hours in Portal 2 and 118.4 hours and 76% achievements in DL2.

I'm not a huge radio nerd, but I enjoy messing with my SDR. One of the things I like doing is recieving images from weather satellites. I'm hoping to learn some more and get a ham license in the future.

I like programming. I mainly use Python.

Some of my projects include a Wake-on-LAN client (NikoWoL), a public ShareX server, activation servers for old Rovio games, a Randonautica clone and an Intel Arc clone. Keep in mind I haven't made all of those by myself.

Most of my projects are cool ideas I started and never finished.

• TV Shows - My favorite has to be Black Mirror.
• Music - Favorite artists include Linkin Park, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Three Days Grace. Lazy to list more.
