Who am I?
My name is Sp0rked. I’ve been taking technology apart since before most people knew what a baud rate was—but I’ve been officially working in tech since the days of Red Hat Linux 5.x. Professionally, I’m a systems engineer, infrastructure specialist, and occasional debugger of things no one else wants to touch.

What is this site?
googleplex.net is my personal lab, playground, and documentation archive. It hosts selectively sanitized fragments of the work I do—architecture patterns, automation tools, deployment pipelines, and the occasional vintage tech rant. Most of what I build runs privately, but this site offers a curated window into my mindset and methods.

Why should you care?
If you're here, you came for a reason. What you see here is real. No fluff, no corporate polish—just hard-earned solutions, annotated for anyone who wants to learn from them. If you’re into infrastructure that just works, naming conventions with personality, and systems built to last, you might find something here worth your time.

Won’t “the man” come after you for using this domain?
Not likely — and here’s why:

I’ve owned googleplex.net since 2002, back when it was just a clever nod to a number bigger than the universe. After informally surveying friends for spelling consensus, I registered it. This was long before a certain search company decided to name their headquarters after the same mathematical concept.

Their Mountain View campus — formerly Xerox PARC — wasn’t rebranded “The Googleplex” until 2003. By then, I was already running email, hosting experiments, and naming servers like a madman with a subnet.

So no, I’m not squatting, spoofing, or selling anything. I just had good instincts, recursive humor, and a time machine pointed squarely at 2002.

And if “the man” ever does come knocking?
He can explain how a 2003 trademark overrides a 2002 domain with two decades of active, independent use. Legitimate domain use isn’t cybersquatting -- It's protected (see WIPO Section B)
