There are several ways of contacting me:
| How | Where | Contact By | What You Should Know |
| Phone | Cell | My life-line | This is the best way to reach me, by far. Ask me, and I'll give the number to you. Voice or text, this phone is essential to life today. I screen all incoming calls — I don't answer if I don't recognize the number. I will return your call if you leave a reasonable message. Talking on the phone is the channel with the greatest bandwidth, which is preferred. |
| Home | diewald at comcast dot net | I get a lot of email. Paradoxically, the more email I get, the less I respond. I just don't have time to get to it all. | |
| Black Hole | vortexofchaos at gmail dot com | I NEVER look at this email. It's
there for |
|
| Text | Everywhere | Text me | My iPhone and iPad are almost always with me, or nearby, along with the laptop. Texts are fast, ubiquitous, and easy. |
| Social Media | Discord | VortexOfChaos | This is my medium of choice, but only in very specific groups. I can be found in transgender, LARP-related, No Man's Sky-related, and space-related Discords. |
| Facebrick | NEVER EVER | I learned too much about Facebrick when I was working in cybersecurity at MIT. That was before the Cambridge Analytica fiasco. Do yourself a favor. Get off Facebrick ASAP! | |
| Other | None | There are other options, but I don't miss the "here's my life" kind of social media posting I used to do, now long ago and mostly forgotten. | |
| Video Conferencing | Discord | VortexOfChaos | This is also useful for virtual LARPing, so it works for video conferencing. Jordan and I run the Tales of the Future LARP Discord server. |
| Zoom and others | Uses email address | Also useful for virtual LARPing. | |
| Coding | BitBucket | diewald | There are a few shared projects on BitBucket. |
| GitHub | diewald | There are also a couple of shared projects on GitHub. |
